Matt Uhlmannn, who moved away from a decade-plus stint as a doctor of the cool in New Orleans to Philly a couple months before Katrina, is headed back to the Crescent City for a gig. I’m a bit concerned for him; he was obviously depressed and out of sorts after the move and adding insult to injury, was inbound to the city when the hurricane came. I know what it’s like to lose a loved one. Matt’s hoping he finds her alive. It’s not out of the question, and Bart and XY have been busting ass to save the beautiful woman. But what will Matt find?

The Greatest Bus Driver in the World on the subject of Whole Foods. Happily, the man shops Safeway, like me.
Mars
The NYT previews an IMAX film, in 3D, about the odds-beating Mars Rover program. Space and 3D: two great tastes that would go great together, if there was any way to actually experience depth perception beyond 100 yards in a vaccuum.
Spencer and Viv and I had the pleasure of viewing the Ron Howard / Tom Hanks jernt aboot ye Luna, which is also a space-themed 3D IMAX film, and I think that Spence and I also screened “Space Station 3D” chez IMAX. Seriously, it’s the best.
