Castaway On The Moon

I just had to make a post here saying...What an absolute triumph of a movie!  It's rare to find such a simple film that works so well.  I absolutely loved it.  Don't let the fact that it's Korean with subtitles dissuade you.    Don't miss it.  It's only on Netflix a few more days.

Jon Anderson - Surrender

I finally got Jon Anderson's 'Animation' album back into my collection recently, and there's one song on there that I think should be required listening for all.  It's called 'Surrender,' and it's been sending massive goosebumps across my body, and has even brought me to tears more than once.  Here it is on YouTube.

Dead On Analysis from Mary Roach

I was listening to this week's Radiolab, and I just had to stop and link this piece of the story.  They are interviewing author Mary Roach about her research on The Afterlife, and as she was so elegantly concluding her thoughts, I was realizing that she had come to much the same conclusion I have concerning the question of life after death.  So if you'd like to know how I feel on the matter, you can just listen to Mary Roach.  Especially in her conclusions.



It's called Beyond The Grave.

This One Came Out Well

I was stumped on this one for a while, but then I realized it worked well with the old 'mother-in-law' bit.

A Landmark Day For Me

It all just sort of fell into place for me tonight.  The Spazmatics were playing The Depot for the ComicCon Party, but we only got the gig by giving them a really sweet deal.  That meant we only had one guy (Wes) to run both the house sound, and and monitors as well.  So I asked him if I could run monitors for him tonight, and he agreed.  He set all their levels at sound check, and I was only asked to make one slight adjustment during the show, nevertheless it quite clearly represents a landmark for me.  I can now say that I ran monitors for the Spazmatics at The Depot!  Whooooo Hoooo!
