Gonna watch Minority Report in a minute. I don't know why other people didn't like it. I found it enjoyable enough to watch several times.

I've got Moon on hold at the library, but been too busy to retrieve it. I think my hold expires today (Saturday).

We watched a few episodes of Mad Men season 1 last night. It was very good.

Just finished Bad Boy Bubby. That was one of the most movies I've ever watched. :twitch:

I just finished watching Game Change. It was pretty entertaining. Julianne Moore plays a great Sarah Palin...at least, what I would have dramatized to be like. Ed Harris isn't so bad as John McCain either.

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan

Interesting subtitles, but a great flick.

Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations - the best travel/food show on TV in my view. Last night he was in Manchuria of all places.

An utterly hilarious ripping-to-pieces of "economic damages" caused by copyright "crimes". It's only 5 minutes long but sooooo worth it http://boingboing.net/2012/03/15/copyri ... ted-t.html
"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J
