RIP, Robert Redford. Made some ripper flicks, often with a conspiracy bent. "Three Days Of The Condor" is a personal fave. Also "All The President's Men" and "Sneakers", the spiritual sequel to "War Games". Killer cast in that last fillum (albeit a sausage-fest). Its plot is even more relevant now!

Speaking of conspiracies...yeah, I bought it. Why do I read every Dan Brown novel? Quite simply, in the hope he'll manage to recapture the perfect storm of historical-mysterious-implausible dumb fun that was "The Da Vinci Code". Hasn't happened yet. That said, this Prague romp is all right so far.

Enjoying the challenge of "Dicey Words" [Steam]. It's flippin' hard!

Pod rec. Weird, disturbing and question-raising. Standup comedy meets biography meets true crime. Not the type of thang you'll want to listen to late at night while home alone. That said, I eagerly await Ep. 4.

The multitalented Felicia Day as Carmen Sandiego. She must have posted this one Halloween - not suspecting that an aging nerd from Oz would save a copy and share it on his blog in the distant future :-)
