So, after work, I went and got my tan on for a few minutes, and then EJ and I drove to Knoxville to meet our mutual friend Trae for dinner at a new Indian restaurant and to see Star Trek in Imax.
I had never eaten Indian food before - all I knew was that curry is a predominant spice in Indian cuisine, and I don't like curry. I wound up ordering something called Lamb Rogan Josh that was REALLY good. Just a simple lamb stew served over rice. We got some garlic naan to go with it (a flat bread). I was very pleasantly surprised. Good stuff, and I will go back again. Trae - who is the pickiest eater on the planet - got Mango Lamb, and EJ got Mango Chicken. I'm not a big fan of mangoes, so I didn't try theirs, but it all smelled wonderful.
After dinner we went to see the new Star Trek movie in Imax. I am in no way, shape, or form, a Star Trek fan. But the trailers have looked intriguing for this film, and everyone who has seen it has given positive reviews regardless of their placement on the "Trekkie" continuum of fan devotion.

AWESOME
!!!!!!!!!!!
GREAT action, GREAT humor, GREAT character development, GREAT dialogue. I loved it. In fact, I loved it so much, that if they decide to pursue another film with this cast, I will DEFintely go see it. The casting was just Brilliant. I loved every minute from start to finish. All this raving praise from a person who would rather turn off the television and scrub toilets than watch a single episode of the original television series.
I think that speaks for itself.
You MUST go see it!
