• The Last Kiss Soundtrack
    Various Artist

    I haven't seen the movie but I did get the soundtrack. I'll give the soundtrack the same review I've been hearing from others on the movie, it's a bit disappointing coming from Zach Braff.

  • Snow Patrol
    Eyes Open

    This is a pretty good CD but it's one that I really liked at first and has now just fizzled out a bit. All and all a good purchase though.

  • The Fray
    How to Save a Live

    I've had this CD for awhile (and loved it) and just never got around to posting anything about it. I'm sure most all of you have it but for those who don't I think it's the best CD to come out in a few years.

  • 1776
    David McCullough

    I just started reading this book about a week ago and have really enjoyed it so far. McCullough really makes history feel alive with his great story writing style and I haven't felt so patriotic in a long time

  • Mr Jones' Rules for the Modern Man
    Dylan Jones

    Let me just start out by saying there is some definite content issues with this book that I wouldn't recommend. With that said, the author has some great advice and wit to the modern man (I purchased this in the UK so this is definitely for the modern Euro man). If you steer clear of some content, it's a great tip book on everything from how to write a thank you letter to how to conquer karaoke.

  • The Unknown Story: Mao
    Jung Chang

    Time magazine calls this book "an atom bomb of a book." It estimates that 70 million Chinese perished under Mao's rule which, if true, would make him one of the harshest dictators the world has ever seen.

    Weekend Trip

    This weekend I was invited on a trip with friends, to the northern part of the county, in the mountains. It was somewhat crowded but it was beautiful and we had tons of fun. The sleds cost about $2 to rent and we had a great time knocking people down as you sled through and throwing snowballs. I hit one of the guys with a snowball right at the first so for the rest of our time he'd creep up behind and hit me in the back of the head with one, I don't really consider that to be the fun part of the day.


    Here's some skiers on a slope beside us; we decided to stick to the $2 sledding.


    The craziest part was that in the cedar forest we went to (right beside the skiing) there were apes living in the trees. This was the first time that I've ever seen an ape in the wild and it was a crazy experience. All in all, I had a great time and my friend the monkey here helped make it that way.
