Random Saturday Bits

» Heather and I went to The Container Store today. Two giant floors of, well, containers. It’s an anal-retentive wet dream. Everything in its right place. And yet we still couldn’t find a magazine rack we liked. I don’t know if that means we’re too anal, or not nearly anal enough.

» The Core is actually a great flick, in a Saturday afternoon popcorn and Coke kinda way, so long as you go in expecting the worst. And, really, how could you not?

» It’s funny if you say it five times fast: Rumsfeld Baghdad Bunker Busters. Rumsfeld Baghdad Bunker Busters. Rumsfeld Baghdad Bunker Busters. Rumsfeld Baghdad Bunker Busters. Rumsfeld Baghdad Bunker Busters. And if you say it enough, you can almost forget what all those words mean.

» It’s the most beautiful day here in San Francisco. Brighter and warmer than any day I can remember. The first Saturday I’ve been able to relax in weeks. So I think I will.
