Movie Review: Waterhorse - Legend Of The Deep

This was a heart warming film that was enjoyed by the whole family. It reminded me alot of E.T. The story revolves around young Angus who is a shy, strange little boy living on the shores of a Scottish lake in the early days of World War II. His father has been off fighting for quite a while, and Angus finds a friend in the loveable baby sea critter he rears from a pup as it grows from manageable just-post-egg-size to rather less hideable Loch Ness-monster-size. We watched this on Blu-Ray and it was visually stunning.

Amputee Sprinter Oscar Pistorius Allowed To Compete In Beijing

Oscar Pistorius, a double-amputee sprinter known as the fastest man on no legs, will be allowed to compete at the Beijing Olympics after a ban on his prosthetic limbs was overturned today.
The South African 400 metre runner had been forbidden from competing alongside able-bodied athletes because his high-tech carbon fibre blades were thought to give him a mechanical advantage. (Don't top of the line shoes also give you this type of advantage?)
But today the Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that the 21-year-old South African blade-runner is eligible to race against Olympic athletes, ending the ban imposed by the IAAF.

This is the craziest thing I've seen in a long time. For those of you in the 21st century (e.g. blackberryowners), you'll need to look at this on a pc. You also have to get out of your seat and walk away from your computer. People may think you're crazy. But it's well worth it.

When you look at this picture in a closer look you see its Albert Einstein. But if you stand 15 feet away, it will become Marilyn Monroe. Give a try.

My Thoughts On Lost (Spoilers)

This episode rocked!!!!

My curiousity is piqued to find out how Sun and Aaron are rescued and reconnected with the other members of Oceanic 6.

I felt for Kate and Sayid when they came off the plane and there were no family members to greet them. I love how Hurley grabbed Sayid and his family embraced him.

I can't believe that upon Hurleys return his family throw him an island themed party.

The best line of the night goes to Hurleys mom........"Jesus Christ is not a weapon."

Last week we saw a device that was strapped to Keamy's arm.Is that the detonator for the massive amount of explosives on the freighter?

The others are back. Wild!

I loved the scene between Su and her father. She tells her father that there were 2 people responsible for Jin's death and that he is one of them. Who is the other?

What a great scene when Claires mom was staring at her grandchild and didn't even know it.

Link Love: Mixwit

I have been having fun over at Mixwit.
It is a website that lets you make mixtapes and share them on Facebook, MySpace an other websites.
I threw this one together quickly, but I think this could get fun as it has several options available ie. skin changes, etc.
Think of all the possibilites.

Book Review : Shadow Divers

Last month I joined a local book club and had such a great experience reading the chosen book and engaging in dialogue surrounding its content. This week I will be attending meeting number two.

The greatest benefit of the book club is discovering a book you would have completely ignored or avoided is now one of the best books you've read all year. This months selection SHADOW DIVERS by Robert Kurson had me hooked by the second page.


The book is a non fiction adventure of two weekend scuba divers who risk everything to solve a great historical mystery surrounding the wreckage of a World War 2 German U-boat off the coast of New Jersey in 1991.


A film adaption of the book is currently in production and slated for a 2009 release.


I became so caught up in the saga of these determined men and the problems all divers face that it is high on my list of all time favorites. The determination of the men, the problems they faced trying to get to the submerged boat and the subsequent changes in their personal lives was riveting. It is not a subject matter that I thought I would enjoy reading about.

Best Buy Of The Day

Yesterday was the perfect sunshiny day. Sheila and I spent the day shopping in our favorite stores along Bloor St.
The radiation I received recently has permanantly destroyed the salivary glands on the left side of my mouth. Because of this I drink a copious amount of water and I must always have a water bottle within my reach.
I have been reading about how unhealthy it is to drink from the plastic H2O bottles and have been in the market for an alternative.
Yesterday I scored this from Pottery Barn.
It has kept my beverage chilled all day. I love that it is functional and cute.

As violence in Iraq continues President Bush has for the first time revealed the great sacrifice he's made for the sake of our soldiers.......... he's given up golf.
It would have been better if he continued to golf and gave up being President.

American Idol Recap

David Archuleta - So It Goes.....................Ugh!!

Syesha Mercado - If I Ain’t Got You............I thought she sounded great.

David Cook - First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.........I was very worried for him when Simon picked this song for him but he rose to the challenge and he conquered. It was beautiful.

David Archuleta - With You........Okay Chris Brown he is not. Why did he choose this song? You can tell his Dad is no longer by his side to give him guidance and direction.

Syesha Mercado - Fever.............I really think she is shining bright tonight.

David Cook -Dare You to Move............. It was okay.

David Archuleta - Longer............Ugh!!!! This guy is sooooooooo cheesy.

Syesha Mercado - Hit Me Up........Not bad. I am getting so frustrated by the judges criticisms. They so want this to be a David C and David A showdown at the finale.

David Cook - I Don't Want to Miss a Thing...........I hate that he has to sing short versions of songs. It hinders his performance and doesn't allow us to see his whole potential to rock out.
