Sicario. Usually do not like films of this genre, but this is so well done, and intense.

Sands of the Well by Denise Levertov. Bought this solely because I happened to read the opening poem to this collection: What Harbinger? Glitter of grey oarstrokes over the waveless, dark, secretive water. A boat is moving towards me slowly, but who is rowing and what it brings I can't yet see. I think it's a tremendously beautiful poem. Book is highly recommended.

How Fibber McGee and Molly Won World War II by Mickey Smith. Well, of course they didn't win the war themselves, but the radio show helped the morale of a heck of a lot of people durning the war years. It's an enjoyable bedtime read about my favorite Old Time Radio show.

The Year of Our Lord 1943: Christian Humanism in an Age of Crisis by Alan Jacobs. Very interesting book, with applications to the modern world and politics. From the Amazon description: By early 1943, it had become increasingly clear that the Allies would win the Second World War. Around the same time, it also became increasingly clear to many Christian intellectuals on both sides of the Atlantic that the soon-to-be-victorious nations were not culturally or morally prepared for their success. A war won by technological superiority merely laid the groundwork for a post-war society governed by technocrats. These Christian intellectuals-Jacques Maritain, T. S. Eliot, C. S. Lewis, W. H. Auden, and Simone Weil, among others-sought both to articulate a sober and reflective critique of their own culture and to outline a plan for the moral and spiritual regeneration of their countries in the post-war world.

*Long Sigh* RIP Aretha

Simon Says: The Sights and Sounds of the Swing Era: 1935 - 1955 by George T. Simon. Simon wasn't the most insightful person in the world, and the writing here is very prosaic at times, but I love this book for some reason.

The Big Bang Theory Season 4.

Twilight Zone: Season One. What I have begun to love about TTZ is that there's a "honest emotion" to a lot of the episodes that television seem incapable of replicating in today's world -- maybe we're just too cynical nowadays.

Fushionless: According to Wikipedia: 1 Scottish, of food or drink : lacking in flavor or nourishment : insipid. 2 Scottish, of a person. a : physically weak : lacking energy. b : mentally or spiritually dull. Interesting, I never even heard it before today.

When I try this from iPhotos, I always get the notice that the photo uses too much MB's.

Antonio Carlos Jobim: Tide. Just seems to be a Jobim kind of day today for some reason.

Agree! "Children's Game" is also one of my favorites.

Antonio Carlos Jobim: Stone Flower

Antonio Carlos Jobim: Wave
