Season 2 of **Pushing Daisies** I’ve been watching **Dexter** on DVD. I’m halfway through season 2 and I’ve decided to read the books, so I’m eagerly awaiting **Darkly Dreaming Dexter** to arrive at my door. ---

- Photos of the Apollo landing sites. There’s a probe going up in March with a camera good enough to do it. My grandfather worked on the LEMs at Grumman. So I grew up knowing that something my grampa touched is on the moon. Can’t wait to see that. - The next season of The Office, which is THIS WEEK!!! ---

LHC results (when they fix their magnets) The new Bond flick looks like it’ll be good. Actually, somewhat depressingly, that’s the only movie I’ve heard about that I’m excited for. I’m contemplating holding off on reading any more _Ice and Fire_ books till he’s finished the series, since I’m starting to loose track of the characters between books and its too long to reread the whole series every time a new book is released, so I guess I’m eagerly awaiting the _last_ of book of that series so I can read the whole thing (though at the current rate I may be dead before the last book rolls off the press) On the plus side, I just got _Anathem_ by Neal Stephenson, which I’ve been eagerly awaiting for a year or so. ---

**Slumdog Millionaire** - I’m a big Danny Boyle fan and I’m also the one person that liked the third act of Sunshine. I am unbelievably excited for this movie. Audience reaction to the new Darren Aronofsky movie **The Wrestler**. I saw it and am so excited for others to see it. Mickey Roarke is just phenomenal. ---
