Secrets and Lies

Congrats to Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton, on the birth of their son, who will one day freak out a whole new generation of filmgoers.

Man, no news posts all week, I am slipping. Also, busy.

Tonight, Comedy Central, 11 PM (EST), Daily Show live coverage of the California recall results.

(Which I probably won't see most of, since tonight is Lost in Translation, hopefully.)

Marvel fans, Magistrate found not only this awesome thing which I will only label 'available for bar mitzvahs,' he also located this great resource for teams (from the Unofficial Handbook of the Marvel Universe.)

Hmmm, what else. PuzzlePirates, let me brag how my crew bought one of the new islands, Cranberry Island in the Ruby Archipelago. *And* I was named an officer.

Thursday, hitting the club for Kermit's birthday.

More later.

On this day in 1849, author Edgar Allan Poe died in Baltimore. Also, in 1985, Palestinian gunmen hijacked the "Achille Lauro."

Back with a vengeance, it's ( Collapse )

The Daily Show coverage of the California recall results was tragically only a half-hour long, but man, some good stuff there. And actual guests! Including a brief debate between Ronny Cox [Total Recall], Marc Singer, and Arnie's stunt double from T3.

"Mr. Cox, we're here to discuss the recall, not pick on the Beastmaster."

And while I'm here, let me note Lost in Translation is rather good. A great mix of comedy in with the drama, and some really sympathetic characters. Highly recommended.
