Stepson Christian is here from MN, and we are having a lovely time!

We happened to go to Disneyland on opening day of the new, improved Pirates of the Caribbean ride. OMG. The lines were huge, but the Jack Sparrow additions were quite groovy. Kudos to the animatronics programmers who did the first appearance - it really moves like Sparrow!!

Superman was very enjoyable.

Very important: GO SEE An Inconvenient Truth. Seriously. Don't screw around or do whiny politically-biased arguing. Go see it, then do the research yourself. But don't let anyone else's crap dissuade you from at least SEEING it.

Last Wednesday we went to see Emmylou Harris & Mark Knopfler (he of Dire Straits fame, for those of you not guitar afficionados), and the show was awesome. There is also an album, All the Roadrunning, so you all can share the joy. Also available on iTunes, of course.

And I STILL need this shirt!!! I know my birthday isn't until September, but the midterm election is in NOVEMBER, and the more promotion of TDS and Colbert, the better!!!
