it's been a pretty eventful weekend. i ended up taking nba live 2001 back to the software store because it was the single worst game i've ever played on the ps2. hands down. i exchanged it for madden 2001, and i think that was a pretty popular decision around here. too bad ea sports had to let me down so bad on the b-ball, though…

we went out to see shadow of the vampire last night. it was a fucking great movie. even past the amazing willem dafoe and john malkovich performances, eddie izzard was given enough room to really shine. i recommend seeing it if it's playing in your town.

i finally got the june of 44 show encoded for transmission3000. i've had that thing kicking around for over a year now, so it was about time. the show isn't available on the site yet, but you can check it out on the streaming radio. yet another item that comes with my highest recommendation.

we went out to an awesome german restaurant tonight. it was pretty freakin' tasty. we now have a plan to start going out to places we either haven't been to before or don't visit very frequently, probably on a weekly-ish basis.

i'm also glad to hear that brad enjoyed cave-in. i figured they'd be right up his alley.
