Monday, monday...

Not much today...just more very important clients stopping by for a visit. Weekend wasn't so bad. Did a number of things; watched "the Bourne Supremacy" (great film! tell all your friends about it) on Friday and then hung out w/a few friends afterwards. Saturday, I went to an art show which featured beautiful Farsi calligraphy written on a beautiful nude women...nice! Naturally, the photographer was trying to say much more than "hey, I can talk a woman into letting me scribble ancient text all over her body, take photos and post 'em on the 'net"; considering the fact that the dude's from Iran, I would imagine that it would take a lot of chutzpah to pull this off! He's really good, I want to see more Iranian artwork; in fact, let's see it from all over the globe!!! Then, there was a poetry reading, I learned about a poet named Hafez. I don't know a lot about him but, thanks to this exposure, I can find out more on my own. Sunday, my family took me to the Outback for my b-day. Then, we saw "Anchorman: the legend of Ron Burgundy"; this film isn't going to win any Oscars, it's just a silly movie for anyone in the mood (which I was) or someone who's engaged in just the right amount of recreational pharmaceutical extractions...not like I would know anything about that. Started watching "Dirty Pretty Things". It's coming along. Better than I expected.

SmarTrip Users Can Now Reload at CVS & Giant

Excellent!     Sent to you by tony via Google Reader:     SmarTrip Users Can Now Reload at CVS & Giant via DCist by Sommer Mathis on 6/16/09 Metro formally announced today that SmarTrip users can add value to their cards at select CVS and Giant Food stores . Last year, WMATA made SmarTrip cards more widely available for sale at CVS and Giant , but now customers can also choose to add money to their cards at both chains while they check out. Many CVS stores actually began offering customers the ability to reload their SmarTrip cards back in April, while Giant has only started to test the sales devices at eight area stores. The grocer will likely add 42 more locations later this summer. Not every CVS or Giant has the new SmarTrip reload technology, but a lot of them do. Consult the list of participating stores to find the one closest to you. The change means that SmarTrip users need no longer necessarily wait in line to access Metro's machines insi...

Ma'am I'm not a hero, I'm just doing my job!

I wrote this in response to a friend who posted a blog entry about heroes a few days ago: When I was a young boy, my aunt would let me and my sister go to 7-Eleven; it was one of the few areas we were allowed to go by ourselves. Generally, I was there for a Slurpee, but once a week, something magical would happen: the 7-Eleven would receive new comics!!! Oh joy! New comics! Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Hulk, Captain America, the X-Men and my favorite, Spider-Man. Yes, for the longest, he's been one of my favorites to read and even though I don't buy comics anymore (are you kidding me, look at the price tag?!?) I still casually read it when I'm in my favorite bookstore and occasional, I'll buy graphic novels. He's been my favorite for several main reasons: 1-He's like me. Oh sure, he was a teenager by the time I started reading but I understood what it was like to have a good day at school but a bad day at home. Or a good day at home, a ...

That Darn El Gato!

Still trying to get the hang of "phoning it in" to blogger.com. This is one of my roommate's cats. Like all cats, he likes to get into things, stand behind you when you're doing something important and then take a nap. Ain't he precious? Saw the preview for this movie; I was skeptical about it when I heard that they were making another one, but after the preview, I'm gonna plunk down 10 bills for this one. And of course, there's Beyonce... Good night everybody! http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/thepinkpanther/index.html
