I previously discussed my desire to mix aircraft and downhill skiing (Ski Truck) and reported setting up my aircraft to carry my downhill snow skis (Ski Truck Epilogue), last week I got the chance to give the setup a whirl! I got the call from my RV-4 friend late in the afternoon that the following… [Read More]
Desert Rose
This past week I was invited to attend a play at a local playhouse called the Desert Rose Playhouse. The play was a musical version of Jekyll and Hyde. The playhouse was incredibly small. The cast was FANTASTIC! I was very surprised at the quality of the production and the super great job that the… [Read More]
Faith?
Give the following article a read and then tell me who has more faith – an atheist/evolutionist or one the believes in God and intelligent design! http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/07/14/13-incredibly-lucky-earth-facts/ For someone to believe that all these things (plus millions/billions more) accidentally occurred in the exactly necessary way and time, they must have REAL faith. Sorry, it’s hogwash –… [Read More]
Mars Photo
The following is a really cool photo recently released by NASA. The Rover “Opportunity” is still alive and well and took this panoramic image – I found it over on Space.com. It should also be noted, Opportunity has been working eight years now! Who says we can’t build anything in America anymore!?!?!
Battleship
Fun Movie! You have to chuckle at the similarities to the game (Battleship) – pay CLOSE attention!! I really enjoyed this flick. It is definitely a feel good type of show. Very enjoyable – lots of action – lots of good characters! The U.S. Navy was clearly very involved which makes for some GREAT scenes.
Dark Shadows
I hit the movies the other day and gave Dark Shadows a shot. It seems that it was getting some poor reviews but a friend of mine said it was pretty good. It is fairly typical of the Tim Burton – Johnny Depp movies in terms of being kinda strange. However; I really enjoyed it. … [Read More]
John Carter from Mars
I don’t see too many movies but I went to one this weekend. It was “John Carter” and I liked it. I’m a science-fiction, love story kinda guy and this movie is certainly that. It was actually a very clean movie and even the hard violence was pretty minimal. There were fight scenes and obvious… [Read More]
Predictions…not
Apparently I am not a fortune teller – certainly not a sports forecaster. My NFL and college football predictions did not turn out. To make it even worse, my teams barely even made a showing… 🙁 Maybe next year I’ll go with the Indianapolis Colts and the Iowa Hawkeyes. 🙂 Thankfully, I could still make… [Read More]
Again, Great Job Team USA!
Team USA played the Russian team to a 13-6 victory in pool play at the 2011 Rugby World Cup!! I did not get to watch the game… bummer. Sounds like it was a pretty wet and difficult game. I am excited – excellent work fella’s!
Great Job Team USA!
The USA played Ireland in the Rugby 2011 World Cup today and did a GREAT job! Ireleand outscored us 22-11 but it was a very good game and a great build-up to facing the Russian team later this week. Way to go!!
