MS Walk

Just a note to plug the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. I'm taking part in a 5 mile walk in Cohasset, MA on Saturday April 28. I have a cousin with MS and can tell you what a cruel disease it is. Thanks to friends and family, plus Verizon and my local in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, I raised over $1800 in 2006. Any donations would be much appreciated.

I finally saw "The Host" this evening, and there were plenty of laughs and scares in the movie, but it was usually one or the other. "Zodiac" does an even better job of combining the two, though it wasn't sold to audiences as a dark comedy. There is a scene where a local celebrity talks on the phone to someone who claims to be the killer. We're wondering if the caller is the real deal, and chuckling at the sametime about how talk-show habits are hard to break (not to mention wondering how 1960's technology could put a man on the moon but couldn't trace a call in under 15 minutes).
