We Now Return to Your Regularly Scheduled Blog

I blame laziness, overwork, and a generalized case of Spring Fever for the recent quietness here on the blog front. But I shall have plenty to write about, as soon as a return from my mystery vacation next week. 

For the PBS or CBC viewers among you, here is a hint to my vacation destination:

Ah, Go On!

    Yorkshire Pudding:

    Your YouTube clue suggests your mystery vacation will be in the UK? Or am I misreading it? Please drop in for a cup of tea. I have always wanted to commune with a real life goddess!

    Saints and Spinners:

    Yay! Please watch some more tv so I don’t have to. :) I must say, my husband and I have been enjoying “The Unusuals” online. The fact that we like it means it’ll probably be cancelled soon.

    YP — I have been to Yorkshire once, and have always wanted to commune with a real life pudding!

    Saints and Spinners — don’t worry, I’m back on the case! I’m currently addicted to The Wire on DVD. The Unusuals? Don’t know that one; I’ll have to check it out (before it’s cancelled :)

Fantastic. So simple, so small, but kinda perfect. And very on point with the current economic situation.

The day a filmmaker with an actual story to tell ("unobtanium?!" hilarious.) gets his or hands and this amazing visual technology, that will be something.

Sally Sparrow from Dr. Who is all-grown up! You do feel as if you are watching a star in the making in Carey Mulligan.

Pirate Radio

Funny in bits (best bit: Bill Nighy dancing) but not funny as a whole. A bit episodic, with a ridiculous ending.

A Serious Man

The Coen brothers have made another divisive film: I really like it; Mr. Goddess hated it. I thought it was deeply funny and deeply ... deep.

Capitalism: A Love Story

Unlike other Michael Moore docs, this was more of a piece of investigative journalism than a political screed. Moore shines his light on for-profit prisons, the appallingly low salaries of airline pilots, and the "dead peasant" insurance policies companies take out on their own employees -- all in the name of making a profit out of anything.
