Ahu and I saw this movie last weekend. I had heard that it was one of the best movies of the year. An interesting attraction for me was that wine played a major role in the movie.

One scene has to do with a discussion around drinking merlot wine. Another scene occurs when one of the characters shows up at a motel door completely naked. The last scene has to do with recovering someone's "lost" wallet. This last one was so funny I was crying and couldn't catch my breath.

I have always heard about this mysterious "Lake Effect Snow" but have never seen it firsthand. I still haven't seen it firsthand but I do have a satellite photo which shows what it looks like from orbit. If you live in Michigan, be afraid, be very afraid:
