The 5th and Mission parking garage in SF does not subsidize parking, even if you see a movie at the nearby Metreon. Expect to pay around $9 to park if you see a movie. Do not arrive 5 minutes before the start of a sold-out showing of the Dark Knight ...

Jenny and I signed up for Netflix for the sole purpose of watching The Wire. This way, we wouldn't have to fight off fiends to get a hold of the DVDs at the Mountain View Public Library (by the way - that place is like a free Blockbuster). Anyway, we ...

Jenny and I just finished watching Monsoon Wedding which was quite enjoyable. We managed to scarf down garlic noodles from Thanh Long, two pieces of chicken from KFC, and some sushi from Momoya. We were basically in a food coma after the movie, so we let the credits run while ...

Yup, it's finally that moment. The moment where I stop posting about American Idol! But damn, the last two nights were some amazing performances. The David vs. David finals were incredible to watch. Both finalists are amazingly nice and real people, and I can assure you that I would have ...

It was obvious after Tuesday night that Jason Castro was ready to go. He struggled with ...

Carly Smithson was voted off this week. Although I knew Carly wasn't going to last much longer, it was surprising to see her voted off in front of Brooke White, who I felt for certain was a goner tonight. When Brooke performed last night she had to start over after ...

All of the contestants sang songs that have inspired them, but to be honest, almost all of the performances were lackluster. Even David Cook, who normally blows everyone away, was off his game. Jason ...

Bad night for me when it comes to American Idol. Ramiele was sent home tonight. She was my favorite female performer, and with Brooke White and Kristy Lee Cook remaining, I certainly think that the wrong contestant left. But again, I think some of the reasoning makes sense - the ...
