Speed Racer

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

I’m jazzed that the movie is finally here. I loved being a kid watching silly cartoons like speedracer. Other movies on my list? Iron Man, the Hulk, and whatever else that’s coming out that will make me wish I was a kid again, sitting and eating a bowl of cereal on a Saturday morning in the early 80’s.

We saw Horton hears a who tonight. It was awesome if you love Dr. Seuss stuff. What was neat was the trillion kids in the theater and the applause at the end of the movie. Way to go Mr. Carey!

My favorite line from the book and in the movie, “A persons a person no matter how small.” Totally preachable!

Sunday mornings growing up as a kid usually consisted of a simple routine.

1. Cereal

2. Cartoons

3. More cereal

4. Speedracer

And yes the Lord would eventually change the routine…

But, speedracer rocks!!!

Saw August Rush tonight with Debbie. A little slow to start…

I actually liked it…I cried a little.

It made me think…

I don’t play my guitar enough. I need to play more.

Evil Knievel Rides On…

My two favorite action figures as a kid…

1. The Bionic Man, “Mr. Col. Steve Austin with that toy rocket with the pop out bionics…

2. And Mr. Evil Knievel and his bike.
Today across the world a generation of kid mourns with the passing of Mr. Evil Knievel. Very sad. How many of us pretended we were Knievel as kids? What it really means is that I’m getting old. :(

Where we live in West Palmdale it looks like someone dropped a bomb on the other side of the mountains. My son said that one of his buddies relatives lost their home in Santa Clarita. Prayers for the people affected by the loss and prayers for those fighting the fires.

Amazing Grace

Monday, February 26th, 2007

We saw the movie Amazing Grace last night. See it. Please. My favorite line of the movie, “I’m the worlds greatest sinner and Christ is the worlds greatest Savior…I hope I got that right. Anyways, see it. An old friend has helped write a book that I hope to get that will only add to helping grasp the power of this movie here.

Welcome to the high desert…
