  2. The elk tenderloin at Geronimo is about the best thing I have ever put in my mouth. The Rooftop Pizzeria is fun. I don't know how you are getting there, but we always enjoy Madrid. If you go north, stop at La Chiripada Winery in Dixon; there is a great grocery there to buy lunch to go with your wine purchases. We like the Folk Art Museum.

  3. I watch a lot of film, but animation has become a passion. "Tangled" first pulled me in a few years ago; I was drawn to its tortured production history (top-five-most-expensive film of all time in any genre), the blending of 2D and 3D animation, and the artistry of Glen Keane. I now have about 50 blurays in the library and add a few more each month.

    My goal is to own/watch every film on the Laputo Animation Festival list (150) and the Online Film Critics Society Award for Best Animated Film list... plus any other that catch my attention.

    The wife and I went to Disney World at the end of February, and she indulged me by sitting through the short film festival 4 times ("Get a Horse!", "Feast", and "Piper"). I bought a Disney release that includes the first two, and also "Paper man", an awesome short by one of the Tangled animators that also blends 2D and 3D animation.

    My newest additions:

    Yellow Submarine

    A Scanner Darkly

    The Wind Rises

    Pinocchio
