It seems like a lot of people are not enjoying the Green Lantern movie. I would like to say give it a shot, go see it. Is it the best movie out there, no, but it is certainly better than a lot of movies and better than a lot of superhero movies. I think it is pretty well put together, and for a movie that needs to be heavy on special effects they did a really good job with them. I would give Green Lantern a solid B. Oh and stay for the credits there is a bonus scene. Author Archive

Angry Birds Summer Competition
Jun 22 2011
Angry Birds Seasons just released a summer update today. It has 30 levels and you can only play a new one each day. I really like this format (Rovio did it with Christmas too). With only one new level each day it really makes you strive hard to get a really good score. Competition with my friends is very fierce, and score updates are texted throughout the day. So far in level 1 there are pigs in sunglasses and pig shaped clouds. Kudos to Rovio for releasing another great update to a great game. Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2 – Rodrick Rules Review
Jun 21 2011
We just went out and rented Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2 – Rodrick Rules. The kids love it. They have read all the books, so they know what’s going on and thought it was a good movie. It is enjoyable as a parent to not always have to watch cartoons. If your kids aren’t into these books yet i recommend picking them up. They are about a middle school kid, his buddy, tortuous big brother and their adventures. There are a few mild bad words and some stuff the brothers and friends do to each other in the movie I would not encourage as a father (pranks and such), but we talk about those as they come up. I definitely recommend getting a hold of this movie. Of course I would say start with #1 first. I give this movie an 8 out of 10. 262 working days in 2020
May 27 2011
That’s right in 2020 there will be 262 working days. Most years only have 260 or 261. So get ready for 1 extra day of getting up early.
