Intermission

Sorry I have not posted Part 2 of Catching a Ferry as of yet, as promised. We have spent the last 3 days at the Jules Vern Film Festival, and last night we had a party to celebrate Mike's Paris beer brewing debut. It was a big hit... a real tasty brew, and at 9% alcohol, a real kick in the pants too.

Today at the film festival, we saw a pretty lame episode of Battlestar Galactica, but what was cool was that three of the series' stars were there for an interview... anyone familiar with the series knows Lee, Madame President and Gaius Baltar! Pretty neat, real live Hollywood actors. Madame President is played by the same Stands with a Fist from Dances with Wolves.

Wow! Real live Stars? See the rest of the pictures at my Battlestar album.

After that, we took a break until the premiere of the new Star Trek movie... I don't know if it's premiered for real in Austin, tho I did just read they screened it in secret at the Paramount. Kathy, where you there? Anyways, it was really really good... pretty much non stop action. Awesome special effects, and the 'young' Starship Enterprise cast were all amazing. Go see it when it comes out. Totally worth it.

That said, I'll get back to what we did after we missed our ferry tomorrow. I've got a nice dooze of a headache going, and I'm pretty sure it's less from Mike's home brew and more from an overdose of stinky French perfume. Like a french you know what at a movie theater. Damn.
