Two Down, Umpteen More To Go.

So, I found the joy that is the Cobble Hill Theatre here in good ole' Brooklyn. Not a "HI-TEC" theatre, but comfortable.
Shows that start before 6pm are a mere $5.50, after that $8.50.
That's pretty cheap for New York. Average is about $10...
but if you're aware of cheaper -- lemme know, eh?
So, Sin City and Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy get marked off the list. I thought that both were entertaining, but not anything to expound further upon. Marv, Hartigan, and Kevin being excellent prototypes for future cyberpunk roleplaying characters. HHGttG for Adams fans only... sorry to say.
NRRD-OUT!

So, I'm copying my good friend Tim and making my way through my CD collection alphabetically. This accomplishes two goals; ensuring that I have indeed listened to everything in my collection more than once, and then that I can make an informed decision on whether I need to have these albums in my collection. Now that I have a job that affords me the luxury of buying music, I'm quickly running out of space on my CD racks. I left Michigan with just a little bit of space left, and it has quickly evaporated since February. I can do one of two things. Eliminate the non-essentials or buy another CD rack.
Buying another CD rack is problematic because Allison will not be happy about it... and I will work hard at filling that one too.
So it's a win, lose, win situation. I win. Allison loses. I win. *hee hee*
I probably will only buy another CD rack if the same one is still available from IKEA. By far, it's the best design I've encountered. Surprisingly enough, it's help up being moved about and mounted/re-mounted on several different walls quite well for it's inexpensive price.

Oh, and seeing how I'll be giving the thumbs up and thumbs down to these discs... lemme know if you're interested in purchasing any of them before I take them to the record store. I will be fair to you in pricing, but not unfair to myself either.
