Thanks to MLB At Bat, I'm listening to the Mariners against the Twins on my iPhone on the way home. But instead of the beloved Dave Niehaus, I'm listening to the Twins' feed (the only one offered). This means that, besides listening to different announcers, I also get ads from Minnesota ( Read more... )

Due to an abundance of weddings, barbecues, and various whatnot, I'll be driving up (with the cat) tomorrow, and staying in Seattle through the 17th. Weddings happening this Saturday (my sister) and the 16th (an old friend from the neighborhood), plus Warm Beach this Sunday. But other than that I have few plans (besides, y'know, working). I look ( Read more... )

For those heading to SIFF, I've posted a quick summary of my viewings at cineklein. If you have any questions about said films, drop me a line.

As for SIFF, I myself will be heading up this weekend and hope to catch at least a few screenings. I hope to see y'all there, and elsewhere, in Seattle.

I'm thinking of heading up to Seattle sometime in the next few weeks and, as always, I'd love to hang out with folks. Will y'all be around over Memorial Day for dim sum, drinking, SIFF, and whatnot?

Editors Note: It was brought to my attention that my last post hid the above question inside its rambling second paragraph (thanks to kickinpants for responding ( Read more... )

Posted departure time for UA 852, my flight from NRT -> SFO: "INDEFINITE".

Update: Leaving an hour late. How anticlimactic.

Hello, friends. It's that time of the year again wherein I, the uncultured boob, ask my more "with it" friends what I ought to be listening to. Mostly I'm looking for music that's new within the last year, but if you've unearthed some long-lost rarity, I'd be into that too. The only catch this year is that I'll be driving up with Andy, so there ( Read more... )

Over at blogger.

Just dropping in to say that my phone is, well, half-dead. There's no video, but the audio seems to be working fine. This makes it hard for me to tell if, say, the battery is low, or what you've sent me via text message. But it's still theoretically possible to use. However, I won't be using it a whole lot until I either fix it (I assume there' ( Read more... )

Ze Frank Goes to Hollywood.

[Yes, it's not a real post, but it is my first post in months.]

I'll soon be embarking (with Rebecca) on the 14-hour drive to Seattle (probably starting on Friday). There's one thing I need before leaving: new music. Sure, I could just listen to the Beatles all the way, but why do that when I can get into something new? Unfortunately, I'm almost completely out of the loop with regard to music these days ( Read more... )
