Thanksgiving




We had thanksgiving with the parents, who cooked a great meal, and then went to see the new Bond movie -- Casino Royale. It was the best Bond in a long time, and Daniel Craig is a great 007. And that's even factoring in all the female tittering you have to put up with whenever he shows up on screen in a Speedo. My only complaint: not enough screen time for the Aston Martin DBS.
