...informed wake-up call. Lamott is a recovering alcoholic, sober since 1986, and has just ushered her son Sam through his high school years in a bohemian enclave of Marin where drugs are there for the asking. Kids who remind her of Rosie are everywhere she turns. On this Sunday morning, she has just returned from a hike to the ocean, where she watched a search-and-rescue team look for a 17-year-old girl from Mill Valley who disappeared during an overnight party with her friends. Inside St. Andrew, Lamott's beloved church, she offers prayers...
...When Sunday night arrived, I dreaded turning my computer back on. I knew it meant I'd have to do work or respond to e-mails from friends and family, i.e., more work. And while the main lesson I took away from my two days is that technology is a gift from God and should never be turned off - one simple text would have kept Cassandra's friends at the party, which would have led to more drinking and Liberace-level candle lighting - I did learn that I'd rather hang out with my wife and son than find...
...Catholic priests are abusing children, it is Rome, not Dublin, that must answer for it with a full confession and in a criminal investigation.

In Ireland, it is time we separated ... our faith from its alleged leaders...
...MONDAY UPDATE: The final numbers produced a mild upset. Clash of the Titans won the weekend with an actual $26.6 million (close to the Warner Bros. estimate) to Date Night's $25.2 million. Fox honchos had predicted that Tina and Steve would enjoy a $7.1 million Sunday date, which proved to be fully 30% higher than the $5.43 million the movie took in. How to Train Your Dragon's estimated $25.4 million was also a little high; the true total was $24.9 million. So Clash gets to brag in this week's commercials that it's still...
...Virgin. The movie benefited from one of those titles that virtually demands that a couple see it, as when Valentine's Day was released on Valentine's Day weekend. And though Date Night gleaned only a modest B rating from CinemaScore's exit poll, it could get a Sunday bump from Fey's stint over the weekend as guest host on Saturday Night Live - the coolest form of cross-promotion, especially when SNL's musical guest was teen fave Justin Bieber. Now every girl from 8 to 14 knows about Fey's movie...
