When Marnie Was There

#WhenMarnieWasThere: More restrained than better-known fare, but just as emotional and affecting. Bittersweet melancholy #Ghibli coda.

#KungFuPanda3: Terrific & fun trilogy-capper. Loved the fact they gave Hong & Duk Kim more to do. Is DreamWorks inching ahead of Pixar?!

Denver Broncos Win Super Bowl 50

Love the guy but upcoming #Peyton #Manning (HGH-less) hagiography will be insufferable. #WadePhillips/#Panthers Defense uda real #MVP! #SB50 

SoCal Edison Outage Response

#coldplay and #beyonce did rock! Please enter your address at sce.com/outage for updates on the restoration time.

SB50 Halftime Show

#Coldplay rocked the #SB50  halftime show so much they blew our power out! Where's a desi genny when you need one?! @SCE

Horrible Start for the Panthers

This is *exactly* what I was afraid of! #SB50 effectively over. Cue the insufferable #Peyton apologists (HGH be d*mned) & #Cam haters #Sigh!

Super Bowl 50 Preview

No one giving the #Broncos any chance makes me nervous. I've seen last-leg legends (#Federer!) stumble at the end so hope for #Panthers yet!
