Matinee and MooShu

Dec 25 found a whole bunch of us gathered at the Annapolis Mall to see the opening of Sherlock Holmes, which was an entirely different rendering of the character from what I recall from reading the books many years ago.


Regardless, it was fun to hang out and meet some new folks over dinner, some of whom showed us just to eat while others headed off after the movie. Fourteen of us horded upon the Court of Shanghai on West St and debated the relative merits of Sherlock Holmes vs. Avatar and very long listing of the benefits of JDate. I had a great time, and hope others did as well.
