Thanks for the movie recs, guys. Was hoping for one showing in the theatres now. But I’ll take note of your great suggestions. Cheers, a
Please recommend a movie for me. A good script and acting would be nice. Cheers, a
The end of Act One of Adam’s Doctor Atomic is what makes opera hard to beat for emotional intensity. And the staging is knockout. On PBS.
Marley and Me seems to be the movie of choice. Sounds great. Just wondering how I’ll stifle the tears in front of my son :)
In some ways, Rotten Tomatoes has ruined the movie going experience.
Gran Torino is a mix of Crash, Grumpy Old Men, Death Wish and The Karate Kid. We really enjoyed it. A perfect film for Toronto.
Lates, Twitterbuds. Hope you are having a wonderful, restful (or exciting) evening where ever you are.
Waiting at @starbucks for my wife. Little coffee date. My first bad coffee here, well, for ever!
When did Flash become persona non grata? It’s like a dirty word.
Heading out the door. Drop kidlet off at work, workout, coffee with wife, then a bazillion errands that did not get done last week.
Good morning.
#journchat Just added a bunch of you. Very interesting, informed people out there. Cheers, a
Are you celebrating at a party or a quiet evening at home? Toronto Twitters, esp. Anybody downtown drinking somewhere? :)
Errands done. Geez, the wind is frigging cold today. Watching Doctor Atomic again, opera by John Adams. Quite amazing. I’ll work later.
RIP Freddie Hubbard. One of the greatest jazz trumpeters. http://bit.ly/Xbgy
Doctor Atomic by John Adams. The Met on PBS HD. Great performance. Superb conducting by Alan Gilbert. 1st Act stronger than 2nd. I’ll rpt.
My brother just joined. Was a unsure. But he drank the Apple Koolaid last week. And now Twitter. Show him the power, plz: @RogerKershaw
I always feel a little dirty after ordering on the Air Canada website. Should feel proud, but always feel ripped off!
Geez Louise, the world’s most expensive coffee literally tastes like poop! $600 a pound. http://bit.ly/U6m5
Deciding between @Starbucks Espresso Roast, Kenya or Verona. What’s your favourite for the espresso machine?
Playing, conducting, writing and teaching has taken up the first 50. May switch to selling BMW, Harry Rosen and Starbucks for the next 50 :)
Perfect colour, great taste. http://twitpic.com/xr9y

No robots, but a gentle thank you to all the new followers today. Lots. And thanks. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh ;)
I think LinkedIn has something against me LOL The red answer of death appears after just about every frigging click!
‘Dad, you’re wrong about Facebook. You don’t understand the demographic. My Space will also resurge.’Cocky little bugger!
Audiophiles, just say no to headphones.
‘The @chrisbrogan effect’ = a crapload more followers. Hope my conversations are worthy and mildy interesting.
Get in there, Berbs!!!
I’m ranked 14,000 behind my Twitter girlfriend. So much for equitable cyber relationships! :)
My identical twin is considering Twitter. He’s a careful adopter. He went MacBook/iPhone just last week.
Manchester United live on Setanta. With pregame show, three hours of Nirvana.
Which bottle to decant? Mitolo Jester Shiraz, J Lohr Cab, Gemtree Uncut Shiraz. If u pick the correct one, u can have a glass. Streetsville.
Lots of Twitter robot and spam hate last couple of days. Good. What’s worse for me is the subtle spam hidden as ‘help’. So disingenuous.
Refreshing LinkedIn. Getting into the day slowly. The late night Roquefort cheese binge is hanging around, so I’ll workout this afternoon.
Will be listening, reviewing, writing, cleaning. In that order.
Please add audiophile cables and the Mac/MS debate to the no go discussion subjects like politics and religion. The fur always flies.
Why do I keep getting ‘You are not the intended recipient of this email’ when clicking on LinkedIn invitation emails? Frustrating!
Nearly 2 a.m. and all’s well. Now, where is my kid?

Okay, I have an idea for a musical. Suspend belief for just a moment, but it stars nuns, Nazis and kids.
Watching The Truman Show. A truly creepy film. Carrey’s excellent as is the always wonderful, Laura Linney. ***1/2
Loved the company at the tweetup today, but as a restaurant!!! ‘Spicy satay sauce’ is not melted peanut butter :) The burger looked better.
