RIC farmers' market


RIC farmers' market
Originally uploaded by boliyou.

We went to the first Farmers' Market of the season at Rhode Island College yesterday. It started pouring just as we got there. That didn't stop the shoppers, though. Or these two little girls who were dancing in the rain.

We got some fresh veggies, local honey and homemade BBQ sauce. It should make a great dinner.

Web site story

Very clever send-up of West Side Story and the Web world.

Hooray for Hulu!




Hulu is an online television site. You can watch old shows like Lost in Space, The Big Valley and Barney Miller.

Or you can catch up on shows you missed, like Bones. Fox had allowed a few of their shows to stream on Hulu, but the other networks were lagging behind.

Now ABC is streaming some of their shows (on a day-by-day rollout) on Hulu! This is so great! I would watch ABC shows on their own site, but I prefer Hulu's interface. For one thing, ABC's video stops at the end of a commercial and you have to manually start it again.

Now I'll be able to watch Lost straight through! Woot!

Movie review: Meet me in St. Louis

photo: Wikipedia

A sweet old musical starring Judy Garland that sees the Smith family through the year before the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis.

A family of seven sings their way through summer romance, Halloween highjinks, the threat of a job transfer, A Merry Little Christmas and a glorious spring. The trolley clangs, Margaret O'Brien is adorable as a ghoulish little girl, and Judy falls in love with the boy next door.

It's rather pleasant, and might make a nice Christmas or Easter tradition.

Do you hate to be single?



You Like Being Single



Being single is just fine with you, but you don't always love it.

Like most people, you would prefer to be attached... but you are rightfully picky.

While you may not need to be in a relationship, you'd like to be in one.

You try to make your life as great as possible, whether you're with someone or not.
