CBGB had some folks over to their place last for night for a housewarming…ironic, since yesterday was an unseasonably cold & windy day. Still, GB fired up the barbeque in style and dashed off more than enough food for all. There were even some thai appetizers that I avoided…wisely, as it turns out; Nellie had one and spent ten minutes fighting off tears. A good time was had, etc.

I know a few friends who could use the services of LBA (Lip Balm Anonymous). Time for an intervention.

We watched The Wild Parrots Of Telegraph Hill (imdb | rotten tomatoes) over the weekend after it sat on the PVR for months. It was yet another documentary that deserved to win the Oscar more than March Of The Penguins, but whatever. I figure I must be getting soft in my old age, ’cause the personalities of the parrots and the dedication Mark Bittner showed to them were pretty touching. It sounds like it’ll be a boring movie but it’s not. Highly recommended.
