No, it wasn't that. Believe it or not (and yes, this is coming from me), Up was a little too down. I mean, did you see Bolt? I actually liked that better. Completely under-rated movie. Not really comparable, in terms of stories (there's no fantastical set piece on a blimp), but just a really great movie. And can you imagine Terms of Endearment with explosions? Terms of Endearment 2: The Revenge -- now that's a movie I would probably see.

Yup, Up had a powerful opening. I'm not recalling Monsters, Inc., but that's just an excuse to see it again, so...win.

Well, if one got Smeggy to do it, then one didn't do it one's self...

Do the whut now?

He may mean it in the colloquial sense.

I don't recognize that cover -- which Bernstein/Mahler is that?

I know of no movie that cannot be improved with explosions.

That last one speaks to me.

So..."redundant pleonasm" would be a redundant pleonasm?

Didn't someone tell me there was an acoustic bandpass filter -- meaning changing the shape of it would change the filter? That cavity, at least, needs to be rigid. (If I understand that correctly.)

You did the entire team? Offense, defense, or both?

I'm thinking he says it smells like incense. (And, having been raised Orthodox, I know exactly which smell of which he speaks, and even though I currently disapprove of church, I by no means disapprove of olfactory nostalgia.)

I <3 my pinnas. Anyone want to see my pinnas?

Went to my sister's "opening" -- she has opened an artisan showcase, as well as an alpaca yarn farm thingy. Pretty cool stuff. Got to hang out with family all day in the open air on a beautiful day (it was clear and in the 60's today). Allergies are killing me now, but I enjoyed it for a time.

Was listening to a lot of Victory at Sea and Project Pitchfork today.

I don't know about UPS or checking it out ovar the intarwebs, but Brickwall does a decent job, AFAIK. (I've asked the question many times, of which commercial product would be adequate, and I don't think I evar got a straight answer.) Boycott Monster.

The whut now? (I mean, yeah, I know I can look it up, but what -- in your mind -- makes it special?)

Thinner air FTW.

Yeah, except Michael Jordan is better looking. The 401k one kills me.

We have TV's in our elevators that spew headlines. Caught this one the other day. Thought "realdoll", (shuddered).

Done -- is that good?

They do make some very nice monitors, though. Do any of them make nice TV's? Oh, and: you guys watch a lot of TV. I've had Spellbound for over a week, and can't seem to find the time to finish it.
