The Week in Entertainment

DVD: Some more Mission Impossible - I do like the tight writing, but how odd to see all the Nazis and mobsters and "western-leaning satellite states" and "small Iron Curtain countries" ... And they must have spoken as many languages as Daniel Jackson!

TV: The Doctor! And that's about it this week...

Read: Sean Carroll's new book, The Making of the Fittest. I actually liked Endless Forms Most Beautiful better, but this is an excellent introduction to molecular evolution. Am halfway through Amy Tan's The Hundred Secret Senses.
