Hobbit

I hear that there is a movie version (or two... or three) of the Hobbit that will be released a few weeks before Christmas. Since most of the family is going to be here (Indiana) right after Christmas I would like to suggest that as a family we go up to Indianapolis to see this in IMax/3D/48 frames per second. If we do Christmas Monday then we could do Tuesday at IMax or vice versa.

My plan is for this to be the first time that Katie and I see it.

Two-for-Tuesday, Rawlinz vz ZZ Top

Okay, I know that it's Wednesday, but this was too good to wait to post. Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlins are quite possibly my favorite duo ever so what do you think... here's the Dave Rawlins Machine song, It Too Easy, covered by the legendary ZZ Top.

Enjoy.

Remix Your Monday

Something fun to try: 
Remix your own Monday by playing video 1 (LCD Soundsystem's - New York, I Love You...) with Miles Davis' - Louis Malle's Elevator scene.

 I recommend hitting play on Miles around the :32 second mark on New York...

Video Games

Some of my favorite video games made this list, although I didn't see my two all-time favorites "Wings of Fury" and "Blades of Steel." What about you? What games are on your list?
