right on bro!

I saw the new Lord of the Rings movie today, courtesy of the company I work for. It was pretty decent. Cringed a little bit every time the storyline changed from the book (for example, the beacons were wack), but the battlescenes and shots of Minas Tirith were absolutely amazing. I still think the movie portrayal of Frodo made him out to be more of a pussy than he actually is, but whatever.

Otherwise, had a few beers at the Cat and Fiddle beforehand, and after the movie I broke the strike and went to Vons. I should’ve done this earlier. The store was virtually empty and there were no lines. Maybe I’ll go to socialist hell for breaking the picket lines, but at least I’ll go out with a full refrigerator.
