Saturdays are awesome, because they are full of all the things I love: working less, good weather, and Saturday night.

For all the rest of the things I love (guacamole, sour cream, cheese, salsa, crispiness) I must rely on La Taquiza's nachos. These are the best nachos I've ever had, and every once in a while I like to review them, because it's nice to write good reviews and not be such a picky bastard all the time.

Is there an equal? A finer, messier food? I fear the answer.

Just got back from a midnight showing of Cloverfield with Mike Rossmassler.

If you go see it, you should be prepared: THIS IS A MOVIE ABOUT SEPTEMBER 11th. It is by far the most subversive, clever, visceral and terrifying movie on the subject to date, and the boldest wide-release commercial movie (from a form and message standpoint) I may have ever seen.

But the WTC connection is more than coincidental: it's the beating heart. I wanted to warn people (esp. New Yorkers) about what they're getting into before they invest $11 and an hour and a half.

Spoilers in the comments, if anyone's interested in getting into this discussion more fully.

Review Haiku for Bow Street Runner:

Mass Effect, Beware.
This game's writing is better.
Acting? Slightly worse.
