Update on some curling - Canada went undefeated through the entire event to win the gold today in Beijing over Russia!



I believe this the first time a women's team has gone undefeated to win the world champs.

Note that for any curling fans, the men's world chaps are currently in progress and live streams are up.

Cheers, Al

And again the Canadian team went undefeated through the entire event. Great final last night against Sweden...close match and some great shot making in the last ends by both teams. 👍

Swedish skip was burned by one rock that didn't want to curl near the end of the game...seemed to be the same rock in consecutive ends that didn't curl as they had planned, leaving the door open for Canada.

My latest acquisition


Is that the 2803? My favorite Aqua Terra. One of the most gorgeous dials I have ever seen on a watch. 😀

What a coincidence, I just watched Stargate the other night - the 15th anniversary Blu-ray released in 2009 but which I just bought a few months ago. Loved the movie and the many TV series.

See, Stargate was ok, but a pale immitator when it comes to the best gate travels series:

I figured it was better to resurrect this discussion than start a new one. I was watching The American (2010) with George Clooney and noticed our boy was wearing a Speedmaster. The movie is quirky and is about a hitman (Clooney) lying low in a small Italian village after having some trouble in Sweden.

Clooney has made some great movies, but also some strange ones. In the "strange" category, Solaris comes to mind. Michael Clayton is another. I like them both, but they're not mainstream. I'd call them oddly appealing. Up In The Air was another off-beat file. Loved that one too.

Netflix dropped the whole season of The Defenders today. Bang goes my weekend!


Full disclosure - two episodes in already, and Sweet Christmas - is it good. 😎

Late convert to this show, but I love it. Shame this is the last one, but you can see why it is, what with the timeframe and the tech involved this season.

LMAO! I think all of pet owners endure THAT "watch". 😁
Miss Annie sneaks up quietly while I'm on the PC an rests her jaw on my thigh with those beautiful pale gold eyes looking up at me.

Heres a blast from the past "Cosmic Journey" 1936. A Russian moon landing. Pretty good film for its day with amusing special effects.
