The Fellowship of the Ring was good. Long, but good. There were a few tupping liberties with the plot, though I doubt any but the most hard hearted Tolkien fan will mind. Unexpected development: Legolas got actual applause during the fight scene in the screening I was in. Must be all that long blond hair.

Quick progress update. School: last paper is in. I have an ongoing project with a professor I'm still working on, but that's OK, I get paid for that. Manila Envelope: more work last night. Rolling in News Item support. I have it supporting posting to the home page now. Some UI changes this afternoon. And I want to try to support categories in News Items -- will have to play with the Manila RPC definition to see how that works. There are some interesting UI questions too -- do I support adding new categories? If not, how does the user refresh categories from the browser?

All for now. I have to go see a movie about a hobbit. :)
