I want to thank you all for remembering my birthday. A day celebrating year further from youth and one year closer to the grave.

I have to make this brief because I have put myself on a schedule of getting up before God does. The LSAT is this Saturday and we have been practicing a [...]

Happy Birthday Alan, you old freak! Celebrate by going to the store and buying Metamusil. May you live longer than Robert Palmer.
Second, I’ve been given a regular column for Missions Magazine. I think I’m going to call it “Global Snapshots.” My first article will be about the stunning growth of Southern [...]

To Alan: A very happy birthday.

The toughest obstacle for this movie will be finding a distributor. I remember reading somewhere that horror movies are making a comeback as noted by the box office sales of such ‘great’ movies like Freddy vs. Jason, and Jeeper Creepers 2. It might be up to a small distribution company to get the movie out. [...]

One more web site for C-Nut Gallery: Internet Monk.

While searching for some info on The Passion, I came across a web site called Hollywood Jesus, which practically begs for PRN to write for it (and for a redesign. Ick.)
Unlike the infamously hilarious Capalert web site, which has turned hysterically illliterate condemnation of purience in film into an art form (If you haven’t already, [...]

Don’t get too excited about The Passion too soon — this is often overlooked as the controversy over the film is already getting a little stale: it’s not slated for release until Easter 2004. So, unless it gets a token release in L.A. before New Year’s, it won’t be eligible for an Oscar until 2005.
Will [...]

Hey dudes! Thanks for that info about the two religious films, as well as that uttelry lame looking Joan of Arcadia TV show.
I finished that article about Gibson’s Jesus movie in the New Yorker. I didn’t think it was a well-written article, but at least the guy seemed fair. I [...]

“Riptide, caught in a riptide, what shall I do?”
I am shocked, nay dismayed that Mike Russell hasn’t written any comments regarding the loss of Robert Palmer.
I am now submitting my two-cents. May Robert Palmer rest in peace. He deserves to go to heaven on the strength of the 8 Power Station songs alone.

I watched the debate to see which candidate could steal my vote from Trek Thunder Kelly. This guy is great and is a true candidate (as well as a real candidate). I quote from the State Special Elections Voter Guide:
“Dear Voters, Please vote for me, thus breaking the Seventh Seal and incurring Armageddon. I will [...]

I remember Costa Rica. It does rock. I was there in 96 and I remember a little town called Montezuma. It’s in the Northwest part of the country. And totally accessible by bus (on a horrid little dirt road). I still remember how many Europeans I was bumping into in a town that hosted two [...]

your dead.
Famed Power House singer, Robert Palmer is dead.

Religious-themed entertainments, I just caught a few minutes of the new TV series “Joan of Arcadia,” about a contemporary teenager regularly visited by God.
Upon first meeting God, at this instance in the guise of a sideburned NSync outcast, Joan confirms, “Tower of Babbel, burning bush — that God?”
To which God replies, “That’s the Old Testament. [...]

Although Mel Gibson’s Passion is getting all the attention, two other movies about Christianity open across the country today:
Luther, starring Joesph Fiennes as Martin Luther, and the three-hour Gospel of John, which claims to include every single word of that Biblical book.

I saw the California debate last night. It seemed like Arianna Huffington was only there to hurt Bush’s chance in 2004.
Obviously Bustamante had been coached to be calm and stay above the fray. I thought he came off as very knowledgeable, although I thought his calm approach and demeaning looks at the other [...]

Ladies! I just got back from Costa Rica. Man, it rules down there! It was a really great trip. We had a great time with Dad and Julia and the beaches were awesome. I mean they kick all over Asian beaches. They are so exotic with lots of wild [...]

For the first time in 10 years, I wept openly. Wanna know why? Here’s why:

I signed up for a AOL the other day when a clerk at CompUSA told me I could get a $10 purchase for free if I signed up for a free AOL trial account, which I could then cancel immediately.
I waited a day and then called to cancel, but the “consultant” who took my call [...]

Tomorrow we head to Vero Beach, FL and then to Miami. In Miami, we’ll catch a flight on Monday morning to Costa Rica. So this could be my final blog for more than a week. I’ll have to see how Dad’s internet connection is down there.
Jamie’s never been to CR and Marco’s [...]

Yet another phony Osama tape that the media is taking seriously. The reports always say that the CIA says it is “probably authentic.” What they ALWAYS leave out is that it is the voice that is always authenticated. The voice is the easiest thing to manipulate to make messages (by tape). [...]
