Lately I've been driving my poor wife nuts.  There's been quite a bit of 
info released all at once about the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 
movie, to be released April 29, 2005.  I've looked forward to movies 
before, but I've never been this excited about one!  I'm constantly 
trying to explain parts of the plot and the presence of the sperm whale 
in the movie poster to my wife, who doesn't seem to find it quite as 
amusing as I do.  I told her that she will be going to the movie on 
opening day, but if she can't take the day off to see the first showing, 
then she'll have to go in the evening with me to see if for my second 
time.  Awesome!  The trailer looks spectacular!  If you haven't ever 
read any of the Hitchhiker's books, you should.

I've also been listening to the audio book version of the DaVinci Code.  
That's a good book!  Now I see what all the fuss was about.  I'm always 
looking forward to hearing a little bit more of it.  Makes me wonder how 
much of it is true.  I'm inclined to believe some of it, but that's just 
because I've had a pretty low opinion of the catholic church lately.  
The whole child molestation thing is a real turn off.  My wife even 
found out that they transfered a priest accused of child molestation to 
her catholic elementary school while she was there (apparently he 
tormented only one specific family, and was moved away from them).  
Yuck.  But good story anyway!  I'd recommend it to anyone. 

Adios,
Jeff
