At World’s End

As I mentioned in my previous post, we watched Pirates of the Caribbean: at World’s End this weekend during our trip to Scranton. The following is my amateur “review” of the film. Let me start about by saying that I had high hopes for this incarnation of the Pirates series. I was hoping that we ...

The Electric City

This weekend we took a road trip with our good friends, to the Electric City, better known as Scranton, PA. After arriving in Scranton late Friday night, we went out for some wings before heading back to our luxurious accomodations for the weekend – the Scranton Econo Lodge. Saturday brought shopping at the outlet malls ...

No Closure

For some of our favorite T.V. shows this season, it seems there is no closure. It all started with the season finale of The Office tonight, where a lot happened, but little closure took place. Michael didn’t get the job at Corporate, he and Jan got back together, Jim left Karen in New York City, ...

Blog Redesign 1

So, as I was trolling my RSS feeds the other day, I came across this really cool site. The site in question is WordPress Theme Generator.  The site lets you automatically create themes (in case you hadn’t already guessed) for your WordPress-powered site. The best thing is that it does all the heavy lifting for ...

Connected…and Not

There are so many tools that allow us to be connected to the rest of the world in a mere instant, and yet we sometimes lose the connection to our local world, which is most likely the more important of the two. RSS (that’s short for Really Simple Syndication) is a “tool” that allows you ...

This is Absurd

It seems I can’t stay away from the topic of the shootings at Virginia Tech. This is absurd. Cho did not die like Jesus Christ. His death in no way, shape, or form conceivable even closely mirrors the death of Christ. Jesus’ death came as a payment for the sins of mankind. Cho’s death was ...

Tragedy at Virginia Tech 1

Yesterday a horrible tragedy took place on the campus of Virginia Tech, when a 23-year old senior English major brutally killed 32 people. It’s still a little bit shocking and overwhelming at the moment. It’s been a lot to take in in a short amount of time. I just keep thinking, “why would someone do ...

Thoughts on Don Imus

I’ve wanted to post on the whole Don Imus situation for a while now, but I wanted to wait until I was able to put my thoughts together in a coherent fashion. This is that attempt. Let me start out by saying that I think what Don Imus said was totally inappropriate and he most ...
