Ok. Well, I'm going to type off the cuff with no idea where I'm going and see what comes out. I'm waiting on packages to arrive in the mail for gifts. I don't rest easily until they all arrive safely home. My daughter's been in Atlanta and will come back tomorrow sometime. It's great to be out of school for your Christmas vacation, as I remember.

After a major digital sales push by our cable system, we subscribed to the digital service. And wow, did I have some movie viewing to catch up on. So many great movies I've not seen before, but have enjoyed lately. Moulin Rouge, for example. That director is some kind of genius. A.I. was a sweet movie, and How The Grinch Stole Christmas was a joy to watch with my daughter. Now in the theaters we have The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, which is getting lots of great buzz from moviegoers. Gangs of New York looks good.
