Camping: A Link Summary

Last weekend was men boys only (John, Jason and me) at Lake Sonoma. Camp site was Buck Pastures 05 close to the water play area. Since all three of us work in the tech/internet industry it is of no surprise we exchange a zillion links. Without having any sort of connection to the W3 at the time I’ll try to mention a few links/subjects discussed this weekend. Unfortunately I forgot my camera to accompany this story with pictures… (John, send me the camera pics!)

Of course we talked about movies and TV shows, duh… If the list doesn’t make sense to you; you’re right. Pretty random stuff!

• the Dark Knight. Jas, make sure to see this one in the theater!
• Grandma’s Boy
• Twin Peaks
• Weeds
• Idiocracy
• New York - A Documentary Film. Directed by Ric Burns, this eight part, 14½ hour television event explores New York City’s rich history as the premier laboratory of modern life. A sweeping narrative covering nearly 400 years and 400 square miles, it reveals a complex and dynamic city that has played an unparalleled role in shaping the nation and reflecting its ideals.
