Reviews:
Andy reviewed the trip to St Georges Spirits as the catering was
fabulous and the spirits were plentiful, completely worth full price;
[evil] Kevin reviewed the trip as he got his Christmas tree in a
bottle; Chris follow-on'd that it was a joyous experience, Dave G
follow-on'd that meat in a cone was absolutely incredible - also worth
full price
Adrienne reviewed a Bay Area Ghost Hunter meet and greet at the
Brookdale spa and inn as it was a bit loud and annoying - but the tour
was interesting andshe ate at 'Viao Bella' - a small place - but the
food was nice and the drag show was swinging
I reviewed 'Madagascar 2' as wonderful and silly and the penguins rule
& worth full price'; Eric follow-on'd that he and Pat enjoyed it
Glenn reviewed an article by Phil Procter as an excuse for him to read
puns to the room and recommends the 'Funny Times' as being a good read
Cheryl reviewed a TV commercial as verging on science fiction when it
involves an AI and a car whose owner is named 'Dave' - and reviewed
their plumbing as it 'sucks' when it should drain and today it totally
'blowed', but it is hopefully repaired now, [tall] Kevin follow-on'd
that now they will hopefully also repair the hole
Mo was tired
Ken reviewed BBC1's docudrama 'Einstein and Eddington' as worth full
price and worth watching
Chris reviewed being sick on Sunday as it sucked, that he saw a short
called 'The Story of Sputnik' as one of the greatest films ever - and
then saw one of the worst shorts ever = 'Kink Inc'; he reviewed
'Quantum of Solace' as it has a lot of kicking in it and he likes
kicking and reviewed 'Zack and Miri make a Porno' as exceptionally
sweet
Art commented that the complete works of Monty Python is now on Youtube
Stellen reviewed his trip to Sweden on SAS/United as the last leg
began in Chicago and was therefore infested with a lot of Swedish
journalists, going home - that Sweden was cold and wet, it was nice to
see his folks, then it was cold and snowy and during the return flight
in New York he had the single toughest piece of chicken he has ever
eaten in this life - and the trip was worth full price
we then did auctions: an artifact for $2.00; books for $0.25, videos
for $ 0.25 and $0.50 and a laser printer for $12.00
We adjourned at = 9:35
And the rumor of the week was: 'Chris Garcia will direct 'Lobster
Hookers from Mars'
