Monday's dinner
Monday I had dinner at French restaurant Chez Lindsay with asdf. I had a hard time deciding on the menu, because everything looked delicious, but finally decided to go with the poached salmon.
We enjoyed the evening. The whole dinner was just great.
Shattered
They say frustration is not weighty, it is hard to go back though. The whole time there seemed to be some tension.
Dinner
This evening asdf and I wil go to Green Gourmet, a tiny vegetarian restaurant
downtown. We will celebrate asdf's birthday.
Device
I consider buying a Motorola RAZR V3 Black Phone. I heard some great
stories about it. Tell me your opinion.

Stuff
I've just bought this: an
Acoustic Research PR-185 Pro II Series HDmi Digital Audio/video Interconnect.
It was a real bargain.
A silly movie
Last night I saw MirrorMask (with Stephanie Leonidas). In short: A young girl (Leonidas) from a family of circus entertainers enters into a fantasy world where she's called upon to help heal a ruler known as the white queen.
At the office today
Today at work I had to play it low. We will have to reintermediate our vortals.
Asdf told me that the growth of the ubiquitous schemas is decreasing. HTI
MultiSpy is going as planned.
Stuff
I've just got my Motorola RAZR V3 Black Phone. Right now, me and asdf
are text messaging each other.

Is Xbox 360 In Trouble?
Ars Technica:
Why Microsoft should be worried about new NPD sales figuresBy Max Brenn As the NPD Group released its latest data about the gaming console sales, the Xbox 360’s situation does not look very good.
'Innocent Voices': a gorgeous flick
Last night I went to the movies and saw Innocent Voices. Expectations were high since
asdf already saw it and recommended it. Carlos Padilla deserves an Oscar. Very special movie that is interesting and poignant.

'The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till': terrific
I went to see 'The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till'. Well, it is truly
fabulous. Never-before-seen testimony is included in this documentary on Emmett Louis Till, who, in 1955, was brutally murdered after he whistled at a white woman.
That is pretty much the story of 'The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till'
I found 's performance is gorgeous.
I'm definitely going to buy the DVD when it comes out!
Stuff
Finally, FedEx delivered my Apple 30 GB iPod from Amazon. The folks at
the store are real nice to deal with.
Soul Tree
First asdf and I wanted to go to a vegetarian restaurant for dinner yesterday
but we decided to go to a vegetarian restaurant called Soul Tree. Their dishes
have 'cute' names - which really is quite tiresome. The owner is very friendly. I hadn't been to a place that fancy before. You should go there if you're in the neighbourhood.
'The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till': cheap
Yesterday I saw 'The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till' and it is a very cheesy
movie. The actors and the director did a poor job.
'In Her Shoes': a terrific flick
I saw 'In Her Shoes' last night. I just have to say it is absolutely fabulous.
The story of the movie is basically like this. Straight-laced Rose (Collette) breaks off relations with her party girl sister, Maggie (Diaz), over an indiscretion involving Rose's boyfriend. The chilly atmosphere is broken with the arrival of Ella (MacLaine), the grandmother neither sister knew existed.
Curtis Hanson's direction was stellar.
I sat spell bound for the entire evening!
