Are you a little baby kid? Or a freakish manchild? Or a sophisticated robot with the intellect of a freakish manchild? Or just someone who wants something to do?

The Children's Film Festival opens today! The Children's Film Festival is ten days long, and it is fun, whether you are a child or a manchild or just a child enthusiast. I wrote about it last year here (not really relevant anymore, but read it if you want to hear about a weird lump I had on my neck!).

The complete schedule is HERE.

Opening night (that's tonight!) is Lelavision:

Science will take center stage in "The Accumulation of Change," a world premiere performance by Lelavision Physical Music. Blending choreography, original video, DaVinci-esque musical sculptures and lots of audience participation, Lelavision founders Leah Mann and Ela Lambin will explore the origins of life, aided by the observations of Dr. David Lynn, chair of the biochemistry department at Emory University.

Tomorrow is the pancake breakfast, but it's sold out. Because it is awesome.

I apologize for using the phrase "child enthusiast" earlier. If you are the wrong kind of child enthusiast—you know who you are—please do not attend the Children's Film Festival.

I had always wondered if a lot of priests showed up, looking flushed and excited, and then left halfway through looking puzzled and angry.

When I was a kid I made my parents let me stay up late so I could watch "Dr. Strangelove" on the late show.

Will they be showing that?
