Blind Side

May 30th, 2010

Rented the “The Blind Side” today at a Redbox. I’ve been wanting to watch the movie since I first heard about it. The star is dandra Bullock, and she is one of my favorite actresses in Hollywood. The movie is about a true story of a rich family who takes in a poor orphan boy and helps him become a football player. It’s really good. I’m going to watch it again tomorrow before I take it back to the Redbox.

Haunted Houses

September 25th, 2009

One of the seasonal entertainments in this area are big haunted houses. Most of them are very elaborate, with live actors and high tech effects.

The good ones have already opened for business this weekend and they go through the end of October. There are five or six in the area – I have to decide which one to go through this year. I can’t afford to go to them all, and they sure are fun.

Miniature Golf

September 17th, 2009

One of the fun activities at the beach is playing miniature golf. Even at night, you can easily play under the lights and have fun.

Around here there are a couple of miniature golf courses, but as far as I know there is only one official Putt Putt course. There used to be a second one, but last I heard it was up for sale.

Big Brother Countdown

August 26th, 2009

Only a handful of Big Brother contestants left. The drama queen was finally kicked out. Now the drama King is on the block. I can’t wait to see if Russell gets kicked to the curb or if he can campaign to save his skin. Personally, I hope they kick him out – he’s the biggest threat to the remaining players. Surely they are smart enough to realize that.

I’ve been looking for a new game ID. I think this picture is a good representation of what I have in mind.
