Just finished watching  King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters, an awesome documentary on grown men playing classic arcade games at the World Record level.

trailer at Apple

I recommend not going to the official movie site since there's a spoiler right on their front page - just go rent it

Friday night was Drawger-nite at the Staten Island Yankees! Well, not officially, but we made it that anyway! Zina, Nancy S. and Peter C. met up with me and some WSJ folks and friends and family for the ferry over and the game.

It was a picture -postcard kind of night and actually turned a bit cold for the first Friday night of the summer. The thin-skinned three mentioned above bailed early but I stayed til the bitter (Yanks lost) end and got to see my niece and nephew run the bases!

tickets, 10 clams

beers, 5 duckets

good times...priceless

Winter came late to the Northeast this year but it stuck around too dang long! Spring has sprung not a moment too soon...
