I watched App: The Human Story on the plane back home yesterday. I really liked it. It’s a thoughtful movie with beautiful photography. I noticed that it needs a few more ratings on IMDb. Hint, hint. www.imdb.com/title/tt7…

With my vacation starting in a few days, Andy Weir’s new book, Artemis, couldn’t have dropped at a better time. It’s already loaded on my iPad and ready to roll. Might have to re-read The Martian again, too, just for fun.
