• These are a few of my favorite things…

  Jan 05 8

  It seems to me every warrior in movies had their token things. In Robin Hood: Prince of Theives, Morgan Freeman had his sweet monocular made out of a magnifying glass and leather. King Arthur had Excalibur. In the Harry Potter series, Hermione has her books. In Quigley Down Under, Tom Selleck [...]

• My favorite movies of 2005

  Dec 14 8

  

  The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

  ---

  I just finished the book before I watched the movie. That is not to say that I am not a seasoned veteran though. I read through all of the Chronicles of Narnia series when I was about 8. This movie was amazing! It followed the book very very closely. But it had to follow closely. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe was less than a hundred pages.

• Things I Love vs. Things I Hate

  Sep 19 18

  A good friend of mine, Jamie, created a rather sweet list of all the things she loves and all the things she really doesn’t like. I really got a kick out of this list, so I think that maybe, just maybe you, as my audience would like to see my little list.

  My list is a little eclectic, but thats ok. Please do not be offended as I am sure that many of you out there have your own equally offensive list. In fact, a lot of the things on my dislike list I have done, so I’m in the boat with you if you have done things on that list. Also, things I like such as seing people limp could be perceived as handicap mockery. Be assured, I have been there and I have been the handicap, therefore I deserve to be able to talk about it.
