pretty darn good

A big thanks to Matias Bombal and John Milne for the help with MidMoMoNi last night. About 35 folks braved the cold and rain to come see the movie and they were rewarded with an amazing, super pro, big screen and better sound system. The Magic Christian was way better and funnier on a big screen. I missed stuff on my little TV. And the 16 mm short that Matias brought was good.

I'm very excited that our next movie (Thursday, March 10th) is going to be "All That Jazz". I'm going to re-read the Bob Fosse biography so I can bust out some crazy facts.

There's a new Ethiopian place, Queen of Sheba (natch) that opened in Davis. It's in the doomed spot where the Pita Pit used to be, and it seems doomed as well. How can a cheap vegan/vegetarian buffet fail in a college town? What is wrong with these kids? I guess they are too busy fucking with their iphones to eat. Also, I guess eating with your hands could make you lose your grip on your iphone if you tried it, or you could get some lentils on the screen or something.
I ate there the other day and it's pretty darn good. One of the best options in Davis at lunchtime.

I first read that as "too busy fucking their iphones to eat" which made sense too.

EC says she also hates bob fosse, but mostly because as a child she was foced to do lots of jazz hands and pelvic bumps in her dance class. fosse's tawdry, which I like, but children should not dance it.
