I love movies.  Its no surprise that I just spent a large portion of my last week of vacation watching them.  i watched a movie a day for 9 days and on one day I watched 2.  i simply love the feeling of getting lost in a fantasy world.  I, like most other movie lovers, have enjoyed great sequels and endured horrid ones.  While I was cruising around on the web I concocted this list of rumored sequels.  I personally would...

The summer of 1993 was a wonderful time for me. Having finished high school the year before this was the first real summer spent knowing I did not have to go back to school if I didn’t want to. I worked almost my entire high school career so working my job was no big deal. It would have been just another part of life had it not been for the friends I made at my job.

It’s been a while since I posted anything regarding my beliefs.  By and large I have really tried hard lately to be supportive and understanding of my fellow man’s need for intervention by a higher power.  I don’t like it when that desire crashes headlong into my day, but I try not to get mad over it anymore.  It’s a losing battle.  That’s the way you start to think when you get older and (hopefully) wiser.     Normally...
