Revisited both "Toy Story" movies, opening as a twofer next Friday, in 3-D. For giddy richness of detail, no other kidflicks come close.

"Couples Retreat' provides a vicarious trip to Bora Bora (and for some of my TV-reporter pals, the trip will be real, for a junket).

At Litchfield's Skyview Drive-In: "Time Traveler's Wife" was a bland, backasswards "Benjamin Button," but better than pointless "Post-Grad."

I'll bet you $100 that a health bill with a public option for all Americans will NOT be passed or signed by 2010. Hot air + spin = sell-out.

I thought of torching Wright's Fallingwater for Burning Man. Instead we saw "Inglourious Basterds" at a Pittsburgh drive-in. Better choice.
