Holiday in the sun

Many small-business owners don’t want to take a vacation during a severe recession.
But at least one business owner interviewed by columnist Joyce Rosenberg found time for a quick getaway — and not to the local Thousand Trails campground, either. He’s off to the Mediterranean.
Oh, and he runs an outsourcing firm. Figures.
Gourmand alert: Five restaurants in Seattle’s Belltown district offer tasting tours this summer.
Luckily, the tours run from 3 to 5:30 p.m., while most of Belltown’s muggers and drug dealers are still asleep.
At the movies: Herald film critic Robert Horton describes “The Hangover” as a cross between “Bachelor Party” and “Deliverance.” It’s presumably aimed at the folks who giggled at, “He’s got a real purty mouth on him, don’t he?”
In other unpleasant movie news, the woman from “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” has made another film. Car keys from Oprah under the theater seat couldn’t drag us to that one.
