Cheryl reviewed the Ellen Klages reading as funny, enjoyable and entertaining

I reviewed 'Hot Fuzz' as very funny and worth seeing twice, while Trey stated that Nick Angel is his hero

Chris reviewed 'Blades of Glory' as the funniest movie he'd seen that week, worth seeing if only for the decapitations & the new AMC Cupertino Square has that new fragrance smell but the people working there are as dumb as a box of rocks

Fred reviewed 'The White House Murder Case' at the SJ playhouse as a riot - go see it 0 and he reviewed a CD of country music called 'Folk Uke' as worth full price

Dave G reviewed the John Scalzi reading as very entertaining & Tim Pratt has begun his conquest of literature [there were follow-ons] and then he reviewed 'Torpedo Juice' by Tim Dorsey as having a lovable loony serial killer as the main character - worth paperback price for airline reading & reviewed 'Next' as it wasn't bad, worth matinee

Ed reviewed the newest Scalzi book as he enjoyed it a great deal, thinks it worth full price & reviewed 'Yellow Eyes' by Ringo as he enjoyed the heck our of it and it's worth full price
