Long time no speak.

Ventured out of the cave today to see "The Rum Diary." Enjoyed it a lot, though all the scenes set in the newsroom and about the sad state of journalism stung a bit, just like with the final season of "The Wire."

Not much else going on. Just more work in a newsroom as burned out and beaten down and dysfunctional as that one. It's amazing anyone manages to ever publish anything worthwhile at all.

Maybe it's just the gloom of autumn setting in.
