    Dave,
    if you want to check out something new and cutting edge in media and Entertainment, go check out the PAX 2007 Expo in downtown Seattle that’s going on this weekend.
    It’s essentially a Game/Videogame Expo started by two web comic guys to benefit hospitalized and terminally ill children.
    There are 30,000 there attendees right now.
    Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo are all there showing their latest content. Along with all the major publishers and developers in the industry.
    They have interesting panels like how story and narrative fit in videogames:

    It’s going on all weekend. If you want an idea of how interactive and passive entertainment are merging in content, I would advise checking this out.
    This is now the biggest event in the videogame industry since the cancellation of E3, and it is only in Seattle and it is this weekend.
    Oh, and don’t forget, it was started by two guys that wrote a webcomic about games. Now they have their own online store, this convention and now their own videogame coming out themselves developed with some of the top talents in the industry.
    I love these guys and what they’ve done with their passions, the web, and how they’ve not only turned it into major prosperity for themselves, but also managed to generate some real good in this world.

    I wish I was there this weekend to catch it.

“One of the things I wish I could do in my life would be to watch this film through somebody else’s eyes. I just can’t. I still see it as just a giant mess, and other people are seeing that it has a shape. That’s really exciting, because I still have a hard time seeing it clearly.”
~ Sarah Polley’s Greatest Wish About Stories We Tell

“Anyway, Hitchcock eventually saw a rough cut of High Anxiety. He enjoyed it. But he said nothing after it. He just left. I [thought he] wasn’t happy. The next day, about 11 o’clock in the morning, I get this enormous, beautiful case of Chateau Haut-Brion 1961. That was almost 20 years old [at the time]. I mean, it was priceless. And there were magnums six of them, in a wooden case. Haut-Brion. I mean, oh my God. I’ve still got three of them left waiting. I keep all the good wines.”
What kind of occasion is worthy? When will you know it’s time to go into number four?
“A real, real occasion. I won’t drink it just because it’s a family occasion. I’ll drink it with guys that know what a good wine is and care about, you know, exquisite wines. I have a couple of friends that know what a good wine is.”
~ Mel Brooks, Foodie
