So it's the end of the 4th of July holiday. It's been good, and very laid back. The hole in one on the 4th is still the highlight. Today has been about as relaxed as it gets - a long online session in the AM, reading the NY Times and working on the weblog layout; a 3 mile hike in the afternoon; a long lazy read of a good novel; and now the realization that it's back to the real world tomorrow.
Kathryn and I are making plans for a short trip to Ojai the week after next, where I'm speaking at a small health care / computers conference (www.keeneresearch.com/pcc.htm) . Ojai is a wonderful spot ( www.ojairesort.com/) - I always enjoy being there. Beautiful countryside, and a great golf course.
The Bourne Identity was pretty good - not as good as Minority Report, but pretty good. I had read some pretty pointed criticism of Matt Damon's acting in this one, but I found him to be as believable as anyone could be in a role where you're basically Superman. That was the movie's biggest problem - that no matter what Bourne (Damon) came up against, he defeated it so easily that it was boring by the end. Anyway, still worth 7 bucks.
