Nah, you'll just have to start ordering grass-fed beef from a local organic farmer. Only assuming you can't get it behind the meat counter at your local grocery store, which is becoming increasingly common. The really funny thing is, my grocery store sells the all-natural, raised-locally, hormone-and-antibiotic-free, grass-fed ground beef for the exact same price as the kind in a plastic tube. The taste difference is huge! People must not know it's there, or else they're too busy to wait 20 seconds for the meat guy to weigh it and wrap it up for them.

The last freaking episode of Twin Peaks just pissed me off. I mean, I am not one to need all ends tied into a neat little bow, but good lord give me something!

Onto other things. I re-watched, after years and years of having last seen it, The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane. Made in 1976, starring Jodie Foster, Martin Sheen, and Scott Jacoby. I'd forgotten how suspenseful it is.

Don't forget Fire Walk with Me.

You're not done until you see it.

I keep meaning to put it in my queue. Is my darling Agent Cooper featured in the movie as well? When developing that character, they must have asked some smart women what would be an awesome man: quirky, smart, sexy, in shape (not a tub o' pasty man), calm, cool, and gorgeous (the dark hair and eyes don't hurt me any, either)! Swoonage!

We watched the new Sherlock Holmes movie at the Zicato household. It's not faithful to the books, but still a nicely done movie - if you think of it as something reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes.

To Kill a Mockingbird. It is still a great movie, though it was funny how it was always windy and autumn in every shot of Boo Radley's porch

It's one of my very favorites. I want to marry Atticus.

I've been wanting to see the new Land of The Lost. Maybe I'll but that in my movie queue. I like the Star Trek too. Saw that at the theater.

A couple days ago I watched 'Boondock Saints 1 & 2". Great movies. Both of 'em.

It did take me the first 4 or 5 episodes to get into the charaters, and learn an appreciation for their quirks and personality developments. But by the second series I was hooked. Now I am parsing it out. I have finished series 1 -3 and just started series 4. It goes in chronological order from 1940 and on during WW2 in the UK and gives a great setting of what the average people were going through (not that I have any idea of what that was but it is cool anyway).

The principle is a detective carrying on with the business of police work in the face of a greater threat and the stories are intertwined. Fantastic.
