Cap'n Jack is Back!
I won't divulge any secrets of the movie but I have to say it was really good. Johnny Depp returns as Captain Jack Sparrow a manipulating,conniving,wiskey-drinking cad who has a debt to pay to Davy Jones. Kiera Knightly returns as the beautiful Elisabeth Swan and Orlando Bloom is once again dashing blacksmith,Will Turner. I heartily recommend it mateys!

A quick getaway to Boston
This was a cool gadget, all the pedals were connected by mini driveshafts and universals.
On Friday, Jed Burke, Josh Otey,my sister Jamin and myself went to Boston for the day.Armed with buddy passes for a round-trip flight from our friend Job Tate (thanks again man!) we had a great time. We had no real itinerary just walking, sitting, relaxing, talking and just enjoying each others company. We hit Quincy Market for lunch, it is undoubtedly one of my most favorite places to go in Boston. We took a little jaunt into Chinatown and it was an experience, it is one of those places you would think doesn't exist anymore and yet it does, right in one of our major cities. I take where I live for granted so much,we went to the Boston Commons and they have this shallow pool that is a wading pool of sorts for the city.I couldn't imagine having that as the only place to cool off on a hot day. Anyway we had fun and hope to do it again soon.

Happy Birthday America!
Hve you ever started to read a book where the story was just too good to be true to the point where you know something bad is going to happen? Such is the way I feel about America. The way we started out as a nation,230 years later we are still under the same form of government that is still under the same peice of paper. Our story has progressivly gotten worse over the years, our prosperity has become our bane,our morals are a thing of the past.
All that aside, America is still the greatest country in the world and by far the best to live in. I thank God for having been born here. Happy 230th America! and may God Bless you in the years to come!

Superman Returns and Flops
I'm sorry but the new Superman movie didn't do anything for me.It started nowhere and ended nowhere.The action was minimal, stiff, and disjointed.The story was weak, and nothing happenend to Lex Luthor!
The only saving grace for me was the strong spiritual innuendo and the graphics were the best I've seen since Lord Of the Rings. Other than that, they could have done better.
The City of Blinding Lights
I was driving home from work Friday and saw this beautiful spot of sun poking through the clouds, coincidently U2's song " City of Blinding Lights" was playing on my stereo. here it is:
The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then
Than I do now
Neon heart,dayglo eyes
a city light by fireflies
they're advertising in the skies
for people like us.
And I miss you when you're not around,
I'm getting ready to leave the ground.
O you look so beautiful tonight!
In the city of blinding lights.
Don't look before you laugh
look ugly in a photograph
flash bulbs,purple irises the camera can't see
I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you made
can you,see the beauty,inside of me?
what happenend to the beauty I had inside of me?
And I miss you when you're not around,
I'm getting ready, to leave the ground.
O you look so beautiful tonight!
in the city of blinding lights.
Time,
Time,
Time won't leave me as I am
but time, won't take the boy out of this man!
O you look so beautiful!
O you look so beautiful!
O you look so beautiful toinght
In the City Of Blinding Lights.
The more you know the less you feel
some pray for, others steal
blessings not just for the ones who kneel
Luckily.
