Well, I found out firsthand how fast restaurants book up. My sister will be here in a few weeks and I thought I'd take her out to Babbo -- Mario Batilli's restaurant. They have a policy of "no reservations more than a month in advance" -- so I waited until 28 days before we'd go eat and...they're freakin' booked up 
Every day that she's here they're books outside of eating at 11:15 pm...and who wants to eat a giant meal / many courses that late?
So now I have to look around more. Got a long list of stuff from Zagat, but I'm leaning to Sushi of Gari and go with Omakase.
Quandry: I work with a complete jackass who grates on my nerves -- sits about a foot away from me every day. He's having a birthday party tomorrow and sent out e-vites to the department. I hesitantly said "Yes"...mainly 'cause he kept on checking the invites to see who responded.
So now the black hour is almost upon me and frankly I'd do anything to get outta it...but my word is my honor (yeah, that's old world but so am I...). Nuts!
The Cooler ended up being an excellent flick and well worth checking out. Gave schlubs like myself the hope that one day someone will pay a pretty girl to like me...then have her actually start to like me.
Question -- what's up with the constant photo shoots that incorporate food or weapons? The food bit I can understand to a point -- but anyone who's ever dabbled in food+sex knows that it's more of a pain than what it's worth...unless you're at someone else's house and have no problem leaving a mess. It's like SG has turned into a splooshing fetish site.
The weapon deal is a bit more confusing since I can't get past the association of violence and said weapons. Maybe I'm a bit old-fashioned but rape fantasys just don't float my boat...

Anyway, I hadn't even heard about any pilot for Global Frequency, but it's so cool that they made one. That's something else I'll have to track down. Thanks for the heads-up!
