Quick update

In Mobile for a couple days.

Mrs. Cwabs birthday was yesterday--we went to Wintzell's last night (they told me to tell loreeborealis hi) where she ate 36 oysters, and a bowl of oyster stew. I ate 6 buffalo oysters (not bad, taste like what you'd expect) and 6 oysters Monterrey (taste like potato skins).

We were going to the beach today, but Mrs. Cwabs decided it would be an ordeal so we're gonna do something else instead.

A few quick notes...

...about Ratatouille, which you probably won't find in any actual reviews.

• Early on, there's a complete unrelated story and resolution that happens in the space of about five seconds. It's not even a setup-punchline, but it's still great.
• There's also a great moment of 2D animation that makes me excited about what Pixar could do with the old-school group at Disney
• Ego's typewriter is the greatest typewriter this side of Naked Lunch. His study is similarly awesome.
• It's neat that Anthony Bourdain is listed as a consultant--it probably helped with the actual kitchen dynamic in ways that only someone who's cooked professionally could fully appreciate.

Otherwise, there's not much else to say that doesn't sound like a stuck record. It doesn't measure up to the level of awesomeosity that was The Incredibles, but few things do.
