Travelling Notes

A few unrelated notes on my day so far:

I didn't get a chance to watch Chain at the Hirshhorn last night (too tired, plus next week looks incredibly busy), but Sujewa attended and reports that the theater--a 500 seat auditorium--was packed (and I'm glad to know that he enjoyed the film, especially after I've been talking about it non-stop over here).

One of the dollar bills on my wallet was stamped by a contributor to the "Where's George" website. The dollar I found hasn't travelled very far (as far as I can tell, it hasn't left Maryland), but others seem to travel great distances.

Oh, and Darren's Top 5 this week is a lot of fun, "five favorite performances by actors I otherwise dislike." Darren has lraedy named several of mine, most notably Charlton Heston's surprisingly interesting perforance in Touch of Evil. Christian names five performances by Tom Cruise, an actor he otherwise dislikes (and he's right that Magnolia belongs at teh top of that list). My choice? Adam Sandler in Punch Drunk Love. If you think of others, add them to Darren's already good list.
