Kato! You have turned my apartment into a Chinese nooky factory!

Missy Peregrym is Canadian, in case you were wondering. I'll admit that I actually know who she is. Jenn forced me to watch that gymnastics movie not so long ago, and it was more interesting than I might have guessed. Its got Jeff Bridges in one of those "I need the money" roles and also Julie Warner--not seen by me since "Tommy Boy" (though I haven't really been paying attention)--as a hot mom.

Speaking of Canada, someone with too much time on his hands has put together a page of Hot Famous Canadian Babes. Monica Schnarre--haven't heard that name in a while.

The Nine Worst Asian Characters of all Time. This is BS--what about Kato?

In a sign of something that is probably diagnosable--mental illness, dissertation fatigue, boredom--I occasionally check Amazon to see if any of my favorite authors has a new book coming. Yesterday, I was wondering what Alan Furst has been up to and--lo and behold--The Spies of Warsaw coming in June of 2008.

I'm a fan of the oeuvre of Wes Anderson, especially the perenially underappreciated The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Anderson's new movie, The Darjeeling Limited, opens this weekend. I gather that, when it was shown at various film festivals, it followed a short epilogue called the Hotel Chevalier, noteworthy, according to various sources, because Natalie Portman's buttocks make an appearance. I'll just note that Natalie Portman's buttocks don't really do much for me, but in case you were curious about said buttocks, you can watch Hotel Chevalier for free at iTunes.

Thank You, JWB, for that subtle little reminder of a high-light of my life from 20 years ago.

Meanwhile, relating to Things Canadian, the Boss was testifying before the Senate Finance Committee yesterday on border (in-)security with our neighbors to the north. Despite GAO-flagged problems, something must be working right if americium-241 is getting blocked at the border, but Elisha Cuthbert et. al. can get across.
