Random Thoughts of Clarity by James Hearn
Last night we had another Cheese Whizzes event that was a blast. Outside of the norm, it was decided to taste the cheeses with beer rather than wine.
Two winters ago we paired beer with the cheeses this was a success. Last night was no different. Paul and myself managed the tasting and once again … it was great.

Although I don’t agree with the no seeding regulation, it should be fun.

Tonight we are playing the lovely ladies on the team the Tipsy Moonshiners.
Although we are ranking higher then them for this season, they have been known to distract us with jello shots and smiles.
I know, it sounds elementary but I fall for it every time.

The local movie theater played The Matrix last Wednesday night.
Saint Helena’s Cameo Cinema is small intimate theatre with one screen. They have a segment titled Art File Series (AFS) that runs every Wednesday night. During this time, a pre-chosen movie is played based on that month’s theme. January was Sci-Fi and lead to the showing of classics such as Blade Runner, Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), Close Encounters of the Third Kind and The Matrix. I was able to attend all except Close Encounters.
One upcoming theme that management is still trying to decide on is Spaghetti Westerns and will feature more classics like The Searchers and possibly The Magnificent Seven. Another AFS theme for romance will include titles like When Harry Met Sally, An Affair To Remember and Ghost. Although this is not my style, you have to admit — The Art Film Series is a great concept.
Every once in a while someone does something creative that (a) I completely admire and (b) can relate to strongly. The video “Sales Guy VS Web Dude” is an example that hits close to home for me.
It is a 10 minute video between a sales guy (Chip) and someone in the his IT department. If you’ve ever had to call your IT department for anything then I am sure you can relate to Chip and his frustrations with the process of resolving his problem. If you work IT then this will hit home perfectly as Chip’s vague description of his problem results in all hell breaking loose for the IT guy.
