Gmail is on the fritz.
Apparently some (much?) of the email I've sent from gmail the past two days has been diverted to /dev/null. It appears that I'm receiving email at gmail just fine but sending is a problem.
It would be much nicer if gmail would at least let me know when I can't send email as opposed to silently failing (as it currently is). Oh well, here is a black eye for google.

movie: Off the Map. This one gets 5 stars and enters Jonathan's hall of fame (where it joins The Triplets of Belleville). If you are used to movies travelling along at the speed of Babette's Feast you may feel that this movie moves a tad too quickly, nonetheless, you will probably enjoy it.
movie: Limbo. 4.5 stars. I love movies with such well developed plot resolution. This one joins Lost in Translation and Broken Flowers at the top of the class in the category of excellent plot development! I love a movie in which nothing (or very little) happens.

Phobos-viking1
I saw this on wikipedia today. I love pictures of asteroids and small moons. There is something religious or mystical about seeing a real photo of something millions of miles away in the cold vacuum of space. 243 Ida is another favorite.

Queen Mary
Amelia and I stayed a night on the Queen Mary ship/hotel in Long Beach while visiting family in Orange County.
Our rude idiot neighbors in the next room started watching TV at 3:30 in the morning. After about a hour of unsuccessfully trying to get back to sleep (there is not much sound insulation between rooms) I went out and explored the ship.
I also left a note for the hotel staff to "please spit on any food that is delivered to room M138". Hopefully they will get their just desserts.

The Diagnosis
... Maranti is terminally ill.
This picture was taken at the meeting in which we were informed that the board of directors was pulling the plug on our company, Maranti (Google cached).

The Court of Mysteries
When I win the lottery I will buy the Court of Mysteries.
Until then I'll have to content myself with a few pictures. I have more pictures of this eccentric decaying homage to the brick layer's art. I'll be adding pictures taken in a morning light sometime later.

Farewell Mike
Mike Berg, a good friend of mine, died last year. Recently I uploaded some pictures to flickr that I took at a party celebrating Mike's life. The two pictures shown here are pictures of Mike before we met.
you can see larger versions of this picture by clicking the picture (this takes you to flickr) and then clicking the all sizes button above the picture.
You may recognise Mike's name as the one you see if you follow the blog sensei link on the left side of my blog page.

Cafe Brazil
My mother in law is visiting this weekend so we went to Cafe Brazil for brunch. Normally we wouldn't bother going out to brunch at such a late hour (10h30) on a holiday weekend but with company visiting you have to do crazy things. The food was good (as usual), after the interminable wait.
There are more of my photos of Cafe Brazil on flickr.

menage a trois
More Santa Cruz tide pool stuff.
On the movie front I recently watched The Motorcycle Diaries (about Che Guevara) and 'The Last Metro' (oooh, Catherine Deneuve). Both were very good. I really liked the acting and directing in Metro.

Astronomers have directly confirmed the existence of an Ivory-billed Woodpecker (pictured), previously believed to be extinct since 1944 when the English explorer James Knight died on an expedition in search of the Northwest Passage.
