Indiana Jones Has Jumped the Shark

As good as WALL-E was, that’s how bad this Indiana Jones movie was. On a scale of 1-10, I’m afraid it was a 2. How can we care about any of it when the whole thing is so unbelievably contrived and unrealistic is beyond me.

LucBerg should be ashamed of themself.

In related news, Shia LaBeouf’s new movie—Eagle Eye (stupid name)—has a Matrix vibe to it. It could be good.

‘WALL-E’ Is a Hit!

WALL-E is a gem. What did I expect from Pixar? Exactly this—a creative story line, characters that draw you in and make you like them, impressive visuals and sound, all delivered with the now-famous Pixar flair.

There’s not a bigger “sure thing” in Entertainment than a movie from these guys. I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Attack of the Spoiled Brats

If more people knew about the tactics of the homosexual lobby, they would think twice about how they viewed the whole political movement. Here are a few examples from the FRC.

Stories of the homosexual lobby intimidating companies and individuals who stand up for man-woman marriage are becoming more and more common:

• In Massachusetts, during a petition drive to get a state marriage amendment on the ballot, homosexual activists called people who signed the petition and threatened them with lawsuits or worse.
• Boston public school teachers were threatened with termination if they failed to portray so-called homosexual “marriage” in a positive light.
• Michigan’s largest homosexual activist group says once marriage is legally redefined to include homosexual couples, business owners and even news media outlets that refuse to recognize such marriages should be jailed, or sued and “publicly slapped.”

That’s about par for the course. Do what we want or we’ll hurt you. Sounds more like a schoolyard bully. Only thing is, they have half of Congress on their side.

We need to do everything possible to protect marriage or we’ll continue to slide into an “anything goes” society.

1. Sheriff cites language as reason for wanting Shaq’s badges back
   Ha! There may not be anything more polarizing than celebrity. Half seem to worship these people simply because they appear on a television show. The other half ridicule them for anything and everything. How can they win? I have no idea. As a parent the worst thing you could tell me was that my child had been selected for a role in some TV show. Too much money and fame and what happens? Well, sometimes Shaq happens.
2. Illinois man changes name to “In God We Trust”
   And here I thought all the crazy people lived in California.
3. Cheap PC Gadget for Internet Calls Selling Well
   That’s pretty simple. If I made many long-distance calls, I might get one.
4. Making sense of Israel: A 60-year-old start-up
   “Watching the news from Israel over the last several years, it sometimes seems that the political culture in the country is broken. Yet at the same time, the economic and entrepreneurial trends seem stronger than ever. I’ve never been able to explain that contradiction.” Experts are stumped. I’m not. The answer is God wants things that way… at least for now.
5. Arkansas Thieves Take Bank ATM – But Not Its Cash
   At first thought, I planned to crack on Arkansas but then I thought, those ATMs are indestructible. If a redneck in a stolen pick-up with chains and a front-loader couldn’t crack the case, nobody can.

Whoa! RB2 Hits XBox First

Just saw this headline:
