It was a movie day for Christy and I yesterday…and what I mean by that is we go see two movies in one night. We do that about two or three times a year. This time, it was “Charlotte’s Web” and “The Holiday”.
Charlotte’s Web was good…had some funny moments, and of course the story is great. But the theater was PACKED with kids and well, that’s not really my crowd. So, after that movie was over, we went and got dinner at Zyng, and then went back to the theater for the 2nd movie, “The...

Getting some (totally plutonic) Abi love

Abi Jones over at HeatEatReview.com gave me some props (do people still say “props”?) regarding their Top Ten Countdown ending 2006. I suggested yesterday that they do a countdown with rice-containing meals, and guess what…they did it! And they gave me the credit for suggesting it…so that was even cooler.
Things are starting to come together for my new site, ventureTONE. I plan on gathering my resources this weekend for a first links posting on Tuesday of next week. I plan on posting links to reviews on various things from various...

The Stash

Okay, so I’m now going to let you all know what I got for Christmas…and it’s quite the stash!
(And for those that think it’s bragging, get over yourself…it’s Christmas, and chances are we’re all blessed beyond belief. I just like sharing.)
Okay, I got 3 sweaters, 2 from Old Navy, and 1 from Eddie Bauer. I got two jackets, one of those down jackets from Old Navy, and Christy got me a fleece jacket from Old Navy as well (you’ll see a theme developing here). I got 8 t-shirts, a few long sleeve ones as well,...

One site of note…The Lord of the Rings Online

Basketball day did not suck…much beer, much basketball, much fun.
I did want to point out to all you gamers out there that one highly anticipated game release in 2007, The Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar, has released a new site design which is pretty neat. I liked the other one, but this one is more geared for how things will look upon release of the game, which they are saying is definitely slated for Spring ‘07.
Of course, that could be March, April or May…my guess is going to be April…why not be right down the center.

Christy and I were sitting in the living room last night, watching one of the dozen or so Christmas specials that she’s got on the DVR, when we hear what sounded like scratching or clawing coming from somewhere in the kitchen. We were confused as to what it might be at first, but after pausing the movie, the scratching confirmed…we had a mouse in the house.
So we go into the kitchen with much apprehension…wanting to get rid of it, but of course not wanting to be the one that actually did the getting rid of. After some investigation,...
