Just tried a Starbucks Espresso Truffle coffee drink. Coincidentally, I think I just developed diabetes...!
Last day in PA; typically crazy running around day.

As good as they are, each year they raise the bar ever higher!
This year is TSO's 10th anniversary tour. I was at their first live show - at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby, PA.
TSO at the Wachovia Center was - not surprisingly - excellent!
Heading to the Wachovia Center to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Just saw a few minutes of WALL-E on Blu-Ray. I wasn't a big believer in Blu-Ray... until now. WOW!

Just watched Get Smart (the new movie version) - fun, entertaining, but forgettable. Don't go out of your way.

Star Wars Clone Wars (DVD) - don't bother. The franchise is long overdue for being laid to rest.
Rachel Getting Married - very good movie. Anne Hathaway is excellent. In fact, everyone is.

Arquebus is very interesting - not like any barleywine I've ever tried. VERY mellow. No wonder it won the GABF Gold.
Now on to CBC's Arquebus - an interesting take on barleywine.
CBC = Cambridge Brewing Company in Cambridge, MA.
CBC Great Pumpkin Ale is tasty too. They don't try too hard with the spices - that's a good thing!
Taking a break between movies at CBC with a Weekapaug Gruit. Always interesting "beer" - minus the hops.
Zack and Miri - flithy, hilarious, and touching. Probably the most mature film Kevin Smith has done.

So many Wii games and only one niece and one nephew. What to do...?
IBM/Lotus - why can't I save an appointment greater than 24 hours duration in my calendar? I don't want to create multiple entries!

I guess MA likes taxes, joints, and dogs
Very pleased with the results of MA election results, but disappointed with the closed-mindedness on display in CA for Proposition 8.
