Reviews:

Chris reviewed special exhibits at the deYoung Museum - 'Girl with the Pearl 
Earring' & 'Rembrandt Century' as excellent & reviewed a Russian restaurant in 
Walnut Creek, 'Babuska' as it had amazing food & reviewed LaLuna in Concord as 
'Oh it was SO good!' & Josh says their kitchen is SO very clean - then Chris 
reviewed 'Othello' as the most singularly confusing play he has ever seen


Adrienne reviewed 'Boneshaker' & 'Dreadnaught' by Cherie Priest as alternate 
history steampunk & she enjoyed them both - then reviewed March movies as they 
all suck - then reviewed 'Admissions' as light and entertaining - and Mo agreed 


Dave C reviewed 'Seduction of the Innocent' by Allan Collins as an alternate 
history mystery that he suggests you 'read for fun' - then Chris recommends ALL 
the Hardcase Crime books; Dave then reviewed Hilton's appreciation gift to 
their Honors program members as underwhelming 


Brad reviewed the Youtubed 'Justice League of America' as not as bad as he 
feared it would be & fine for a 6-year old

[evil] Kevin reviewed a showing of 'Iron Sky' as just as much fun the 2nd time 
around, especially when inflicted on an innocent - then Mo opined that it's 
hilarious and well done 


then we did auctions

we adjourned at 9:26 pm

and the rumor of the week was:  'the new pope will be a failure and Benedict 
will return as pope classic'
