A pub down the street from us... have heard good things, looking forward to checking it out!

Wienermobile

I saw the Wienermobile on my way to work today (Oscar Mayer is based in Madison), and it resulted in me finding this great job opportunity for Susan (or for any of the rest of you who are looking for the break that will bring you to this fine city).

Go see this movie!

Susan and I finally overcame the inertia created by our wonderful local community and a lack of familiarity with the Madison movie theaters, and went to see "Little Miss Sunshine" this weekend. It was all the talk of the Sundance movie festival, but some of the reviews had been less enthusiastic... and the plot concept didn't grab me, so I was skeptical. But wow, what a great cast, excellent dialog, hilarious and poignant in just the right measures... Susan and I were both laughing out loud, and I laughed so hard that I cried. By all means check it out!

Sponsor me in the AIDS walk?

Susan and I are going to be participating in the 7k (4.35 mi) Walk, Roll, and Stroll to benefit the AIDS Network, which provides AIDS services to 13 counties in south-central Wisconsin. Their vision statement:

AIDS Network is the AIDS Service Organization for South Central Wisconsin. AIDS Networkwill continue to strive to be independent, financially secure, respected and a leader in the communities we serve. As long as the HIV/AIDS epidemic continues,we will serve and advocate for people living with HIV/AIDS and deliver prevention messages to those most at risk in a culturally competent manner.

The route looks pretty cool, passing by Monona Bay and Lake Monona, then through the city.

Would you consider sponsoring me? I mean, I'm still working out and everything, but 4+ miles oughtta be worth some pocket change, no?
:-)
