Zodiac
I finally finished watching Zodiac last night. I guess I enjoyed it. I like David Fincher. I dug the whole aesthetic of it all. Robert Downey Jr. is in it. I think the only real problem that I had with it was staying on board for almost 3 hours when I already knew the ending.
Without a Trace
Apparently they’re filming an episode of Without a Trace right outside my bedroom window right now. I can’t say I’ve ever seen an episode of the show, but it is exciting to know that I’ll be falling asleep with Mike Myers’s best friend from So I Married an Axe Murderer right outside my window.

Just like Fame, without all the dancing on cars
I freely admit my love for Bravo’s particular flavor of reality television. Sarah got me sucked into Project Runway and my brief stint of unemployment this summer left me with plenty of time for day-long Top Chef marathons. This week’s New York Magazine cover story, “The Near-Fame Experience,” attempts to explain just how bitter-sweet the ascension into...

It should probably be noted that it was Merlin Mann who brought Tumblr to my attention.
How long before they turn?
I thought I was going to make it to the office a little early this morning to work on a story I have due today. Of course that dream died when I found out that last night’s storm flooded the F line and my morning turned into Escape From Brooklyn. Word to the wise… if a subway car sits motionless in a tunnel for more than five minutes, BATTLE ROYALE.
