Saturday personal notes

• I ordered Amazon Prime - For $79 per year, our whole family now gets free 2-day FedEx shipping on any order. Overnight shipping is only $3.99. tonight. If it works, this will beat the socks off of the free SuperSaver shipping that Amazon gives by default for all orders over $25. SuperSaver tended to arrive in 5-9 days.... BORING. Zach raves so much about how awesome Prime is, I figure it will help me buy smarter. When shipping gets you excited.... you've got a good head on your shoulders for our future.
• I rented a few Bollywood movies last week. Ab Tak Chappan - Doctors cure, engineers build, I kill was really great. Currently watching Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge - Come and fall in LOVE... at Akshay's suggestion, but there are no subtitles, so it's a little difficult. I still recommend Swades - We, the people for anyone looking to rent a first Bollywood film.
• Going up to a Georgia mountain cabin with the family for Thanksgiving holiday on Friday
• This afternoon I peeked into a a Civil War museum and browsed some interesting books.
• Don't forget to check out my always-updated daily list of cool links, which is also mirrored on the right-hand side of this blog.
• One last group photo from NBAA 2005 in our booth.
• And finally, go see Walk the Line - in theaters now. You owe it to Johnny Cash, and you owe it to June. I saw it on Friday night and really enjoyed the movie. My next movie to get really excited about will be Marie-Antoinette.
