3 Good Movies (according to me!)

We’ve been in major movie watching mode the past couple of days. At least it feels that way.
First a couple from NetFlix.
Freedomland – This is based on a book by Richard Price (wrote Clockers if that means anything). It stars Snakes on a Plane Samuel Jackson, Julianne Moore and Edie Falco. [...]

Untitled story

I’ve been thinking about writing a story for awhile and these lines kept running through my head so I thought I’d post them up and see where it takes me. Might go somewhere and it might not. We’ll see.
The clock said it was 5:30 in the morning.
In a different lifetime and one [...]

Dreams

Lately I’ve been having some very weird dreams. Or maybe it’s just the fact that I’ve been remembering them when I get up. I think I’ve read where you have dreams every night, but if you remember them they are a bit more vivid or something like that.
The particular dream that [...]

Not enough time in the day!

Right now there’s just not enough time in the day. I’ve got about a billion and one things that I need and want to do, but don’t have the time. I guess starting with the needs is better than the wants right? But what if one of the wants could possibly make you [...]

Gridiron Gang

The wife and I had a date night last night. We went and saw Gridiron Gang with The Rock (Dwayne Johnson). If you’ve read this blog for awhile you’ll know I’m somewhat of a fan of The Rock. We weren’t sure what to make of this movie, but in the end it was [...]

Dream Vacation

I started up a fire tonight and just zoned out into it. I needed to get away from the computer and TV and commune, if you will, with nature. It’s something I’ve been thinking about for awhile now. Back when I went to “boot camp” we were given time to go away [...]

What are we watching this fall?

Since there’s no school, I’m a little more able to watch TV shows this fall. I find it hard to sit through a whole hour long program, but there’s a couple that I can get through (I think this is because I grew up without a TV and I sit on my ass all [...]

Not quite ready for the Tour

Due to some bad weather coming in tomorrow I decided to get out today and play around. Originally I was only going to play 9 holes, but when I paid for my green fees they told me I was on twilight hours so I could play as long as I wanted to. I [...]

Watch out PGA tour…here I come!

Not really, but I’d like to think that given about $200K and a years worth of practice I could at least go to Q-School, but that’s a dream.
Anyhow I did get 4 of my “old” clubs regripped in anticipation of a golf round this weekend. Not sure if we are going to [...]

Some new sticks

Earlier this week I went down to a local golf shop and got measured for a new pair of golf clubs. When I left I was told that they wouldn’t be done until the 15th of this month. Which was fine, but as it turned out they were done yesterday. So I picked [...]
