Adventures in Skoolin': Fall In!

Well! A new school year has started. I am going to take it a step (or maybe 2 steps) further and will take 4 classes this fall semester (2 on campus and 2 online) totalling 11 credits. As like the previous semesters, I am very nervous be cause I will be taking more in and working a remodel overnight for 6 weeks (whew!).

I remembered I never reported on my summer classes. In a nutshell, I aced both classes. Not too much of a surprise for the Computer Apps class, but I was shocked with the Music Lit class. I'll take what I can get, thank you.

This semester will be challenging, but my friends and my wife have faith I will do well. And so I will, too.

Music Review: Evade Kanye's Zone

So, I was checking out the new CD by Jay-Z and Kanye West called Watch The Throne.  The long awaited album was the talk of the nation for months even tough I never heard of it until a week ago.  Being a huge fan of Jay-Z I felt it would be worthy of my library.  Boy was I wrong.  I haven't been this disappointed in an album since Erykah Badu's Amerykah Part 1 in 2007. 

I just can't figure what they were thinking.  There maybe only one track I like and I mean maybe.  Some of you folks may love this release and will blast it forever in your vehicles, but I think it will never enter my player again.  I gave this CD 3 chances.  I couldn't even go complete through the it the last 2 times.

Jay-Z and Kanye, if you guys decide to do a full album collaboration again please take longer to think it over before hitting the studio.  I'm still a fan of you two, but not of this release.  Stay out of your Zone, Kanye.

One other thing, WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH THIS FELINE PICTURE?  Geez!

Brain Dead Donkey in the Middle of the Desert

So we decided to check out the Change-Up with Reynolds, Bateman, Mann and Wilde.  It was a very good and funny film.  Showing the usual world of a single man & a married man and how their lives can be effected when they switch.  Some would think Ryan Reynolds would have stolen the show, but it was actually Jason Bateman in my opinion.  The only issue I had with this flick was that it seemed like they half-assed the post-production.  Just thought there were some obvious errors. 

All and all I felt this movie was good, but not as well as Horrible Bosses.  Check it out in theaters if you wish, but it may be more worthy to see later for rental.  Ok movie.

Grade: C+

So I went with some friends to check out the First Avenger last night.  It was very well done and entertaining.  I'll admit that having Chris Evans play 2 Marvel characters (The Human Torch was the other), but I feel he did a great job as the Captain.  Tommy Lee Jones stole the show in my opinion. He was very funny in a dry humor kind of way.  Hugo Weaving also did great as the Red Skull.  I never new that much about Captain America, but I learned a lot from just this movie.

I am very excited about the upcoming Avengers film in May 2012.  It should be great!  I also heard that there will be new Iron Man movie coming out which kind of confuses me, but oh well. 

Check out Captain America in theaters!
