News of note: President Barack Obama has a scheduled stop in Savanah on Tuesday, as a part of his "White House to Main Street" tour.
President Obama on tour, will stop in Savannah to try and rally support for jobs, healthcare, and assure hope for America's future. It's probably a good idea to head south on his goodwill tour. This will be the Presidents first stop in Georgia since his election.
Expect a townhall meeting in which participants have been asked to attend by invitation only. The townhall will be held at Savannah Technical College.
The President will likely enjoy local cuisine. I'm betting he stops at Paula Deen's The Lady and Her Sons restaurant. No inside tips on that, but where else would you want to eat comfort food in Savannah?

Movies You should Rent and Watch
The Road by Cormac McCarthy. I read the book first, which makes it difficult to compare the movie. It is dark, but it is real. It will drag you in and literally drag you psychologically and emotionally. This isn't a popcorn flick. The Road is a serious movie for the serious age in which we live.
The book is a page turner. Even though you get the feeling it goes on and on forever, that is in part what the movie is trying to convey. Is life a hopeless pursuit that will end in utter destruction? Will there be hope by a few that remain? Has man's heart become so cold that he would devour another man in hunger?
Not a good date night movie.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Must-See Oscar Nominated film for Best Picture: The Hurt Locker
A little bit of patriotism and a little bit of renegade shines through this movie. It isn't always easy to watch, but it is an important film for our time.
Not a good date movie, but a GREAT movie. Don't miss it.
If you like a big soundtrack, give this one a listen.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Serious Man - Seriously, whatever you do, do not go see this movie. It is ridiculous. Not funny. Takes a toll on you. I could barely sit through it. I suppose it is a movie designed to juxtapose religion and life, but oh my - how bad it is.
If there is someone you really don't like, this would be the perfect gift. Oh, it is That bad.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you haven't seen Inglourious Basterds where have you been. This is not a guys only movie. The trailers don't do this movie justice. You should really see it. AWESOME!
Good review of Inglourious Basterds that is different from most on Associated Content.
