Da Vinci Tech


I watch a show called Modern Marvels on the History Channel. This show has some of the best info around. I Tivo almost every show.

About two weeks ago they has a show called Da Vinci Tech. Man was this guy way ahead of his time. It is I think to say that Da Vinci is about the biggest genius ever. I knew some about his work, but this stuff was amazing.

I went to the library the next day to read up on his inventions, he was a clever guy, with some really cool military weapons, paintings, sculpture and drawings.

If you get a chance to watch the show, you should. I am in the middle of watching the building of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Yo Ho Yo Ho A Pirate's Life For Me....


Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest comes out next Friday. Man I am so ready to see this. I guess almost every little kid pretends he is a pirate at sometime. I have gone on the ride at Disney World a couple hundred times in my life. Now that I have kids, I take them when I visit the Magic Kindom.

My daughter loves it and sings the pirate song, it is sooo cute. I must ride it 5 or more times in 3 days. I must say this is the way to make a movie based on anything, a ride or comic book. I am thrilled it did not turn out to be the Haunted Mansion, nice try Eddie Murphy.

Pirates are just the coolest thing, due to the fact they were REAL. Just wondering if anyone has a favorite pirate, and no One Eyed Willie does not count, for those who know.

Look Up In The Sky!


I went to see Superman Returns last night. I was very hopeful that this would be a good film. I was please with the overall look and feel of the film. There was not enough action, please this is SUPERMAN, give him something to do. I hope now that this film is in the can, that the next one will be a triumph.

The trailer for Spider-Man 3 was shown, NOW that looks AWESOME. I cannot wait until May.

I am now looking forward to the next Pirates movie next Friday, might have to see that one more than once.

Only One Arm Left


Well it has almost been a week since my shoulder surgery. I am doing fairly well. Major accomplishment for today, I washed my hair with both hands. Listen it is a small step, and I will be happy to get any of them. I felt like crap for the first couple days. I am actually feeling pretty good.

I have rehab this afternoon, I just do not want to cry. It hurts!!!!

If you can avoid messing yourself up, and having to have surgery, it is a smart move.

6-8 months out of the pool, AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
