Ringing in the New Year with "The Thin Man" movies

They're not really screwball comedy. They're more...screwball comedic mysteries. Anyways, everyone in the family knows I love screwball comedy and strive someday to write like Connie Willis (Willis fans should understand the connection), so, the Thin Man Collection (all 5 or 6 films) was a very logical gift.

Happy New Year to them as observes it

Let this new year be a better one than the last.

Ooooo, dinosaurs!

China finds major dinosaur site.

Zhucheng in Shandong province is known locally as "dinosaur city" and has been the scene of several important finds since the 1960s.

Cool!
