Forever Ago




















Decent story, made better by the fact this was written something like 30 years ago. It's sometimes fun to see what an author's view from the past is, then see what things he got right or wrong. Faster than light travel by 2007? Nope. Class warfare? Yes.

Holmes Again





















Our second so-so movie in a row, it's getting harder to justify the cost of going to the movies with so many alternatives out there. But hey, gets us out of the house. Mostly looking forward to the return of the BBC/Masterpiece Mystery in May I think it is.

Irony
















There's a big pin up board over at the CJC that usually has all kinds of things on it. Someone cleared it off, then put up a bunch of those "inspirational" pictures. But right at the top, in the midst of all this inspiration, is the biggest poster of all talking about suicide. Well planned.

Firebird




















This Pontiac decided to burst into flame on the 5th floor of the garage at work. I park on the sixth. In fact if you spy the white SUV above it, I park just to the right on the other side of that pole.

Bonne Annee




















The last hours, of the last day, of all the holiday vacationing. Back to five day weeks, workin' for the man. Good way to end it though, really excellent dinner at Mimi's.

Cruising Into 2012




















My top three to see today, 1-Sherlock Holmes, 2-Mission Impossible, 3-The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo American Style. Mari's list was the exact opposite. So we decided to go with where our tastes intersected, and watched MI: Ghost Protocol. Jeremy Renner and Simon Pegg after all. It was alright, worth the time, not the ticket. Stream it later.
