Note to self - more movies to see:

"Chicago"
"I Spy"
"The Basketball Diaries"
"Rat Race"
"About Schmidt"
"How to Lose a Man in Ten Days" (not so much for the plot, but for a very hot actor and actress ;o)

We appear to be hitting that mid-winter slump of lame movies in the theatres again. "Gangs of New York" was awesome. LOTR, well yeah.... "Catch Me if You Can" was also very cute, but now what?

Update: I put up a handful of pictures in the gallery from an outing to the Science Museum last weekend.

Penny Arcade never fails to amuse. At least for those of us that are geeky enough to have witnessed a LAN party or two... or face possible eviction due to one. :P

Aww; "Hi Monkey". Who better to show you what a trip to the dentist is like or how to make rice krispie bars than a teeny white monkey? He's like a small, fuzzy Mr. Rogers.

While doing some quick research on Jodie Foster's sexual orientation in the heat of a discussion I ran across this. All I can say is hmmm... and why don't they have a better shot on the webcam?

Curly kitties! I've never seen these guys before. This one almost looks like a rabbit. I'm digging around for general info on the care of cats. I haven't had one since we had them for about a month when I was 13 or 14 and we adopted one at the House of Skark this week. The Cat Fancier's Association site looks pretty good. Anyone know of others?

There's definitely a feeling of fall in the air. The high was about 48 degrees today and it felt like midnight around 9pm thanks to the sun going to sleep earlier and earlier every night. I'm starting to get the crafty bug again lately, and I think I shall celebrate it by making pumpkin favors soon just for the heck of it. I'm already getting ideas in my head for Christmas gifts too, which blows my mind, as I so often am clammoring at the last minute for good gifts.
Well, I guess this is one way to waste a little time... HorrorDrunx. Any excuse for a road trip and a little alcohol. ;o)

It's probably a GOOD thing that the $130 shoes I want from a UK store aren't in stock in my size and color.

The top 88799 names in the United States according to the 1990 US census. I've always been a little fascinated by this because my last name is the 6th most common, but yet I've only known a handful of Davises in my life that weren't related to me in some form. They also have listings of male and female first names, where, oddly enough, my name isn't even listed. ;P Where does your fall?

Light Rail is being pushed back yet again. I'm so anxious for this to start up. I'm not even entirely sure that it will be something I will use on a regular basis, but I do know that it is something this city needs pretty badly. Although we have the glorious MNDOT on our side keeping the outstate roads in good condition, our metro road system still falls far behind other metro areas in the country. They simply can't keep up with the number of cars on the road, usually due to funding issues (or just slow planning). How ironic that light rail is being delayed for funding issues, but at least they had to set an opening date. I find this portion of the article humorous: "Citing uncertain funding from the next Legislature, Metro Transit officials delayed the opening so they could work with a new administration and lawmakers." (In other words, they're waiting for Mr. Ventura to be out of office and to get their funding back.)
