Saturday: Cleaned basement some more. Still not finished, but at least it is livable now. Then went with mom and bought a 51" TV for the new hang-out space.

Sunday: Barbequed most of the early afternoon. Mom puts on all the spices and does any cleaning of meat, I tend the fire and turn. Menu - Brauts, hot dogs, steak, ribs, chicken shish kabobs, shrimp & sausage shish kabobs, and some pineapple spears.

Monday: Went over to mom's friends house to learn about HDTV. Got a free, slightly used XM radio and a copy of Syriana and Failure to Launch. FTL is funny and interesting. Also had my first French 75 (Cognac and Champagne). Not bad. Glad I wasn't driving. LOL

Tuesday: I did absolutely nothing until about 3pm when we went to see The DaVinci Code at the thater. I liked the book a lot better. I just couldn't get over what a bad casting choice Tom Hanks was!!!!!
