  1. And I kind of saw "(500) Days of Summer" on a long plane rideーit was like a low-rent "High Fidelity." Not ideal conditions; should I retry?
  2. I also recently saw Sam Fuller's "Underworld USA," full of incredible, crisp, memory-searing close-upsーDVD rescues another obscured classic.
  3. I watched a cool 60's Hindi movie w/ my momーw/ French new wave-style freeze frames & a crazy dance that put the 1 in "Ghost World" to shame.
  4. RT @ebertchicago Things learned while watching "Sherlock Holmes." http://j.mp/7PU3Sl
  5. .@lars_brown (just an insomnia-driven thought experiment about inconsistencies of moral reasoning, thinking about Ugandan death penalty etc)
  6. @lars_brown Agreed, but it's also good that some gay couples can raise children when natural parents can'tーi don't think adoption is immoral
  7. Why doesn't adoption have an "immoral" stigma like homosexuality, since by choice it frustrates traditional procreation-driven families?
  8. And a few more pictures from the museum trip: http://www.flickr.com/photos/neilphotos/sets/72157623006961507/
  9. My plane ride video again (I screwed up the URL so I'm just correcting the record): http://www.flickr.com/photos/neilphotos/4233622769/
  10. I am at the SF MOMA anniversary show. http://yfrog.com/3n4vidj
  11. @hopelarson Yes! I saw the cover later & that's what it was.
  12. My turbo prop flight earlier: http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/neilphotos/4233622769/
  13. I am in exit row heaven! This preteen girl next to me is reading a magazine instructing her on mating positions; basically porn! Ugh!
  14. I'm at the airport, attempt no. 2! There is an illustration by @buzelli on my ticket holder!
  15. @dikpose Yes! Now you're talkin'. In my next life I'll have a golden ticket like on "Lost."
  16. Last book for 2009: "The Selfish Gene" by Dawkinsーa brisk read, but dense w/ great observations, e.g. a persuasive theory of consciousness.
  17. Rare commiseration tweet: Does anybody else have to deal with flight cancellations etc. on EVERY single trip?! I have massive plane karma.
  18. Cool facts about plants in NYT: http://bit.ly/8pyoMz They summon predators of parasites & pluck carbon from air for immediate defensive use.
  19. Just got an approval email from the feds, for a tough case. It's exhilarating to move mountains for people w/ words on paper. I feel great!
  20. @Comics212 NPR's "On the Media" ran an interesting critique of Detroit "ruin porn": http://www.onthemedia.org/transcripts/2009/09/25/06
