Yikes! this is AMAZING. I want one, I need one. I wonder if it will make it up and down the Queen Anne hills I live on top of? At around $5,000 I better get saving. But seriously, this is cool.

Just Go
Clear your calendar and do it quick! Because you've got from now until Thursday (2-25) to catch the best short films of the year in the theater. These films only show for one week and I'm late in giving you the heads up on it.
They are only playing at select theaters to the easiest thing to do is Google "Academy Nominated Shorts" in your local area and see you get.
They show two programs: One for Live Action another for Animated. Both promise to be an entertaining combination of humor, wit, soul-searching and creativity.
Seriously, don't miss this! You'll be the same if you do.

Madame K's Pizza
I love deep dish pizza, so I went looking for something in Seattle to hit that deep dish void in my tummy.
Madame K's in Ballard:
Atmosphere: 9 It was the best part of the experience. Unique "brothel" atmosphere. Recessed window seat, fun part of town, white lights, great view of street, could lean my chair back against the wall
Pizza overall: 5 As my housemate Steve summarized it, "Underwhelming."
Not that is was terrible actually. I didn't feel like I got totally ripped off- but I also am not excited to go back.
Sauce: 4. Slightly strange taste, too much oregano?
Crust: 2. It was dry, wasn't very flavorful.
Topping/Cheese: 5. Not bad. Just not enough of them and nothing jumping out.
The search continues.

Sea Wolf = Good.
I'm high on this album. This doesn't happen all the time. It's worth a listen I promise.
Also, as an added bonus, Sea Wolf is touring right now. So, for instance, if you live in Seattle, you can go watch them play at Neumos with The Album Leaf on Sat Feb 6th. I'll be there. You should come too.
