Casino Royale with Cheese
A week or two ago I linked to a video clip my friend made: Casino Royale with Cheese, a seriously funny film about how James Bond would handle being paired with a really annoying partner. It’s a great little piece of web satire that’s now been nominated at the MTV Movie Awards! Go vote for

Chris O’Brien
Does anyone have any idea where Chris O’Brien is? The last address I have for him in New Zealand — on Clifford Street — is apparently no longer valid. His Christmas / birthday / New Year’s card was returned however-many thousand miles back to me as “Return to Sender — Not at This Address”.

I finally managed to finish all my Christmas cards last night. It figures that I would run out of stamps with three left – mom, dad, and Nana Rainy’s.

UT?
Hmmm … My buddy Bob just called me on his cell phone from Sarejevo, Bosnia. He’s over there – I’m not kidding! – brokering an arms deal with Kuwait for his company, which sells various types of ammunitions. Bob says he has an extra ticket to the Florida – Tennessee game in Gainesville on Saturday
