After a very emotional night, Yes We Did! I woke up today with a smile on my face and with hope of a bright future for the world.

2 down, 11 more to go

Speed Racer: Visually stimulating, has an odd cast. Go with low expectations and you’ll have a blast.

Didn’t grow up with Iron Man but I’m a huge fan now.

Still to come this summer: Batman, Hulk, Narnia, Clone Wars, Indiana Jones, Kung Fu Panda, Get Smart, Love Guru, You Don’t Mess With the Zohan and Wall-E. That’s a lot of tickets.

Bloomberg Spotting On Subway

On my subway ride home I noticed one bodyguard. Then two. Then three. I mind my own business continuing to read my AS3 book and eventually get ready my phone to take a picture just in case. I look up and there he was– mayor Bloomberg taking the subway just like the rest of us. I had heard he has always been an avid subway rider but you sometimes hear things and never know how much of it is true. It was a very New York experience– seing him doing the same thing I was doing, just minding his own business reading his newspaper.

My new shirt

I got this new shirt on Broadway just a couple of blocks north of Canal St. at a new store that is shared by several artisans. Dante was crushed he didn’t get one. But daddy needed this shirt. :-)

Battle of the avatars

Tomorrow will be a big day in politics as most US states get to vote for a candidate in the primaries. Today I was chatting with my friend online only to realize we were having an avatar battle. He’s a huge Hillary supporter and I’m backing Obama. Rock The Vote!
