Saw Benjamin Button last night. As soon as I can find web video of the WB/Paramount button intro I will post it. Two other things, it had a Forrest Gump feel and Cate Blanchett is fucking beautiful.

My boss gave me the Oblique Strategies card set for the Christmas time. It was really thoughtful and a good end to my weird work year. Also, this album cover was on page one of the Image Search.

In You've Got Mail the Gerber daisies Tom Hanks gives to Meg Ryan are wrapped in newspaper and I think that's dope. Knowing that apparently makes me a bad communicator. This blog has gotten so bad.

The Lives of Others came through the Netflix a few days ago. I really enjoyed it. On a related note, Coudal linked an older Wired article on American wiretapping today. Solid.
