 NEW YORK (AP) - One of the unlikely heroes of this summer's weak box office is a bicycle-riding electronics salesman who responds to his girlfriend's in-bed question of whether he has any protection:
"I don't believe in guns."
Steve Carrell's "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" has led the box office for two weeks running, taking its total to $49 million. With good reviews and strong word-of-mouth, the movie has profited in part on R-rated freedom and plenty of sex jokes — much the way "Wedding Crashers" did.
