Quiet evening watching UK pretty much eviscerate the Gamecocks. What fun. And polishing off my first bottle of 2 Buck Chuck-Trader Joe’s opened in Greenville last year & a friend who lives up there hooked me up.
I see via the internetz they will also soon be opening a store in the Charleston area. I can see a road trip from Sarah Palin’s house. Woo hoo.

I’ll be watching UFC, Fight for the Troops… lamenting the fact that I walked away from the martial arts about four years before MMA blew up.
My friend and I have maintained a quaint tradition of letter writing – actual letters, sent in the mail. I suppose I’m not pure enough, since I use a computer rather than by hand, but still, I think my intent is noble enough. It’s such an archaic tradition, and we’ve moved on so far since we started it in 1993. It’s serious business, the letters – I just finished the first draft, 11 single spaced pages. I’ll go through it again and tighten it up, then a final proofread, and print.
It’s so much fun, though admittedly, a lot of work. 1st draft took me 6 hours!
My friend writes short stories, so I have two of his to edit and critique. I’ve been doing editing work for him for over 15 years now. Egads! Neither of us has published, however, though he’s far more involved in the biz.

This afternoon I watched the 1963 Jason and the Argonauts. An ad said they are showing The Uninvited tonight. I really love the Ray Harryhausen special events in Jason so I actually stopped doing other stuff and watched the movie. (I’ve been going through papers to declutter.) The Uninvited is a ghost story from the 1944 with Ray Milland. I haven’t seen it in ages, so I’m looking forward to that. I like Turner Classic Movies… Not a double feature timewise, but two movies I like a lot. I haz a happy.
Months before Comcast was expected to gain control of NBC Universal, Comcast officials were worried about the perception that they might interfere with MSNBC for political reasons.
One executive, who asked not to be identified because Comcast had instructed employees not to speak about the situation, said the company dreaded the prospect of being blamed if Mr. Olbermann were to quit soon after the takeover.
Poor widdle Comcast — it was all “worried” and “dreading” that we wuz gonna be mean and blame it for stuff. : (

@Redshirt: I understand the preference for paper letters.
I’m a member of an APA (amateur press association) and we are still doing it on paper through the mail. Most of us use computers to produce our submissions but the actual final pages are paper. (We do the multiple copies needed on photocopiers or printers, not on mimeographs.) We’ve discussed doing the whole thing electronically but we like the paper form.

We are having friends over to play “Dominion”. If you haven’t played it, check it out at Amazon. I’m so addicted. We’ve got the original set and the Intrigue add on. Soon to get Alchemy.
Had a nice afternoon at our wonderful Lowe Mill Arts Center, which houses my personal heaven, aka Vertical House Records. Now: baking some brownies and contemplating a second viewing of “Winter’s Bone”. Really an incredible movie, and while yes it is dark, it was ultimately hopeful. Amazing performances by the two lead actors.

@Max: At first I thought there was going to be spanking……
Dominion’s great. Very easy for non-board game player types to play.
The attack cards from Intrigue can get out of hand though. There’s a couple that involve looking through people’s decks and if you have 6 people playing, it kills the momentum of the game pretty easily.

Reading journal articles for my “Organizational Diagnosis for Changing Organization” and “Fundamentals of Information Management in the Public Sector” classes while streaming Season 7 of Buffy on Netflix.
Today I also made a draft video demonstrating how easily one can build a Website on Google Sites for a project in the Inf. Mngmnt Class.
Anyone out there know of any small towns or non-profits who are using Salesforce or Google Sites as a mechanism to maintain Web presence and data collection for their constituents inexpensively and with a minimal need for IT support? I’m looking for sample sites that I can incorporate into a presentation for the Inf. Mngmnt project. Any help appreciated.

I’m very, very afraid the apocolypse is neigh. Gave both dogs peanut butter-flavored bones, and they’re dissing them. This is akin to a child eschewing a tootsie-roll, or a Republican ignoring a tax loophole opportunity, or a priest passing on a naked boy. Unheard of.
It’s interesting the instinct of different players. Some go for the cool action cards, others (like me) go straight for gold.
Great game.

I admit, though, that I’m kind of hoping for that rainsnowsleet “wintry mix” that’s forecast for Tuesday morning. If I’m really lucky, it will fuck up all my travel plans and I can stay put.

@dmsilev: my sister bought a Borders gift card for me for Christmas but hasn’t mailed it to me yet. I even asked her to just give me the code number off the back so I could use it for an on-line purchase but she said she was too busy at the moment. I hope I get to use the damned thing before the company goes under. I didn’t know they were in such bad shape until a couple weeks ago.
Evening’s entertainment? 1) Sitting by the fire and trying to stay warm in this drafty old house. 2) Finishing the reading assignment for Nixonland. Ugh. Nothing has changed in 50 years — they’re still using the techniques he pioneered of stoking resentment. 3) Trying to figure out if I’d rather pick up a guitar or another book. 4) Thinking about getting myself a bourbon on the rocks.
But hey, I’m happy that I’m not at work tonight trying to meet an impossible deadline like I was two weeks ago.
Thanks for the rec! I am totally gonna watch that — never seen it b4 and I love classic horror movies. 10:15 EST

@gbear: Around here, they’ve already closed one big store downtown, and I guess others are on the chopping block. This must have been the very beginning of their closing-out sale, since all the shelves were fully stocked with books.

Well, I took the dog and went for a run. I know I’m supposed to wait six full weeks before exercising, but, God, I missed it so badly, so I started running again a few days ago.
And, just to rub it in, I wore a tank top and shorts. Y’all that ask me incredulously why I live in Phoenix—that’s why.

Alan Hale Sr was a cool actor
He was great! And he was in everything. He’s like Thomas Mitchell: They were always supporting players, but they were in all the best movies.
And he (Hale) invented the foldy-uppy theatre seat, according to IMDB, anyway.
I will be out painting the town red, rocking & rolling through L.A.’s various musical haunts, & staggering in at 0400ish.
No, wait, that was 20 yrs. ago. Tonight I’m well over 50, & have a cold. The DVR is 87% full, so I must decide between Thunderball, One, Two Three, Buckaroo Banzai, Mystery Street, The Green Berets, Forbidden Planet & several other movies + a mess of tee vee shows backed up on it.

Still frantically preparing for our winter foray to Chicago. (Plane tickets from Los Angeles to Chicago are dirt-cheap, BTW — whodathunk it?) I’ve bought a few wool sweaters, a new winter jacket, and knitted myself a hat, gloves, and a scarf. Now I’m making some slipper socks and hopefully that will be the last of it.
We’re cat-sitting for one of Gerard’s co-workers — she’s the one who adopted Charlotte’s sister, so we get called on for cat-sitting every so often. There’s a day or two of hissing and growling and then she seems to realize, “Hey, wait, I remember this place! And these cats! That’s my sister — I should go smack her in the head.” Much better than when she stayed with her owner’s cousin and ended up pooping under the couch because she was too scared to get out and go to the litter box.
Also, I fourth or fifth the recommendation to watch The Uninvited (though it doesn’t start until 7:15 for us West Coasters). It has some scary/creepy parts but I don’t know that I would call it a horror movie the way that, say, The Haunting is a horror movie — it’s more of a supernatural mystery story. Great movie, lots of fun.
