Off the grid

Power is down. City says "maybe Wednesday".
Water comes from power. Interwebs comes from power.
Will see you when I see you.

Blackout chill out double feature Coyote Review

So, as previously revealed, we lost power in a blowthrough last night. After our dogsleds braved the snowy drifts to get us to Big Boy for dinner, we decided to send the menfolk off to the local Tool Time to procure a new generator while we went somewhere with heat. This turned out to be the local cinema. Looking at the options presented us, I was not terribly optimistic, but I hadn't brought a book and part of a group outing is the 'group' bit, so I gambled. And really, I came off far better than I had any right to.

INTERRUPT: Holy carp. Julie Taymor has apparently done a film version of The Tempest, with Alan Cumming and Helen Mirren. After Titus, I feel a strong need to see this.

We saw The Tourist first, then found out there was still no power and saw Love and Other Drugs. I shall present the last first, because that way the really big spoilers for The Tourist get lodged at the very end of the article where it's harder to stumble across them. So considerate!
