The Grifters

The Grifters (film) – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

I love movies about cons and grifters, so I’m happy I finally watched this movie. Annette Bening was so young and Marilyn Monroe sexy in this film. You always wonder what the top grifters in the world would be able to do if they devoted their smarts and energies to something else, but perhaps the high of the con is too hard for them to leave.

The Chaser

The Chaser (film) – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

This movie brings you to the edge of hope, and then brutally destroys it. I found this film worth watching though, mainly because of Kim Yoon-seok’s anti-hero character.

Techies on the cutting edge… of bike commuting | Marketplace from American Public Media

I greatly appreciate it that I have a relatively car-free commute to work on the Stevens Creek Trail. I expect to see a lot more bikes once Google moves into Netscape’s old offices. Hopefully, that will clear up some of the congestion I see on 85 and 237 when I ride to work.

Maidened Flyzone’s Micro Fokker Dr.I Triplane

After attaching the Tactic Anylink 2.4 module to my Spektrum DX7 and changing the channel mapping, E and I were ready to hit the local field this morning with the Flyzone Micro Fokker Dr.I Triplane. E had been obsessed with getting plane ever since he saw it in a Tower Hobbies catalog. I had flown the plane a little bit the previous night, but it needed some trimming, and it was a bit too dark to fly effectively. After adding the machine guns and the pilot last night, the plane was ready for its real maiden. I did a 100% mix of aileron to rudder after the first flight this morning so that one could use just the right stick for the control surfaces. This made the plane a lot easier to handle. I flew the first battery, and I let E fly the next 2 batteries. He had so much fun with the plane, he asked for a fourth one. I regret I didn’t have a camera since the sun was rising and reflecting off the bottom of the clouds, giving a great dawn patrol effect to the Fokker in flight.

The reason why AIDS is more likely to infect uncircumcised men is that the foreskin is a thinner, more easily infected part of a penis.

Sad I won’t be wearing my Patagonia down jacket anymore because of my allergies to dust mites that inhabit down.
