<\/a><\/p>\nIt always seems to make things better when it rains.<\/p>\n
What else… Well how about this: my random thought tonight in the shower was as follows. “I like that show, How It’s Made. It is pretty cool finding out how they make all of those things. Some things are a lot more intricate than first believed to be”. Then I paused and continued “but you know what would be really cool?” …. Wait for it… Yep… Here it comes! “How it’s made: The God Edition. Where you can find out how he makes the human heart beat, the mind think… Or maybe how he made a bird or perhaps even the universe! I bet that would be one of the top rated shows on TV!”. Who knows.<\/p>\n
The other night I was surfing through channels and came across a new show called “The Firm” and I have to admit.. Even though I caught the show mid stream I started getting into it. It has this guy who I know from a few movies and can’t think of his name. Yep, him. I guess I kept watching to see if it was a movie or show. So I finished it out and researched it online and found out that it’s a relatively new show. I watched the first two episodes that have aired and am now looking forward to this weeks twist on Thursday. Yep. It is a lawyer show that deals with morals and even throws in some action. It’s a good mix. If you have time and have a chance to watch it, let me know what you think.<\/p>\n
Typing on the iPad is one thing. But I am tired of hitting each virtual key with one finger. I am making a real effort now to type with both hands as I would on a physical keyboard. It is a little difficult a first, but I’m sure I will eventually get the hang of it. I don’t want to fall behind on the times… But wow. I mean these young whiffer\u00a0snappers nowadays can run circles around me when it comes to techie stuff.<\/p>\n
Don’t believe me? I read an article today that talked about this 14 year old kid who was hacking a Microsoft game so well the company reached out to him and to paraphrase, is working with him so that he can contribute in a positive manner for them in a future position. Wow. I bet if that kid were me with my luck and my age they would’ve had me arrested. Haha<\/p>\n
Sports news? Well the Blazers have been losing and playing sub par. I say this because when you see how well they were playing when they started the season and look at them now, well it seems like two different teams. I don’t know what the deal is. They also seem to be lacking some fire and passion. Some d-fence wouldn’t hurt either. I hope they turn it around before the current six game road trip ends.<\/p>\n
I suppose that’s all I really have this time. Maryia comes back in two days, technically less than that now. Other than that I am still applying for some steady work and playing the waiting game.<\/p>\n
Until next time.<\/p>\n
