What is the fascination with Black Folks & Pit Bulls? Are they really tha bad ass of a dog? If you see a brotha with a dog it is most likely a Pit Bull. Don't get me wrong I love pit bulls. I think they are great dogs, but often I feel they are very mistreated & misunderstood.
Another Dog that falls into this area is the Rottweiler. I remember when I was little I always mispronounce the breed as Rock Wiler, but I was corrected by a breeder one day (In a nice way). I find these dogs fascinating , too. Yes, they are tough dogs, but they are also very gentle and sweet.
I don't know. If anyone can help me understand this observation I'm having feel free to comment.
I might like to have a Rottweiler, but not while we own a Chihuahua.
Yes, Her name is Bella and I love her very much.
Alright! Just woke up from Heather B-Day party (no I was not drunk) and found a strange chick on my futon. OH IT'S DA STAPLES!!!!! Sorry. We had a great time at the party last night. We watched the Mavs move on to face Miami in the NBA finals, which I seriously thought they would not have pulled off especially from the way the game started. Pretty sweet though. Then we (or they) played some twister. They played two rounds I think it was Bridget or Heather who won the first one.
Lots of food, especially deserts, Sweet pie. There were some wraps that I thought my wife made, but were actually made by Elizabeth. I don't know if you are reading this Liz (Is it okay that I call you that?), I don't know what was all in that, but it was very good. We also had some make your own nachos, which I never got around to, lots of chips for dipping, and some veggies. Oh and drinks.
We also did some gaming, well at least John, Win, & I did, kind of pissed that my XBOX was acting up to the point that I couldn't play some of my favorite games. Oh well. Not the end of the world.
Some sweet gift were passed out, too. Heather got some bath stuff with a duckie, some sweet Napoleon Dynamite memorabilia, and to top it all, the New Dixie Chicks CD.
I had a great time at the party and I hove everyone else , too. In a few hours I'm off to Lindy's Pool Party, but I am not going in the pool. No No!!!!!!
Oh man I am still sore from yesterday, but I can't let me down for I need to help my wife with preperations for Heather's B-Day, take my mother to the airport, do the laundry. I'll Live!!!!!
Looking forward to tonight though. Feel very honored that our place was chosen for an event twice in a week. I think it's the pool more so that the location, but then again we have another friends, Lindy, B-Day party to go to tomorrow.
Somewhat of a busy weekend.
Later
Well, I tried to call my self playing softball with my co-workers. It was the two District Project Teams from DFW battling out for bragging rights. I was 6th in the batting order and I was playing 3rd base, unfortunately. I actually had fun at this event even though I was very winded and sore.Some of the highlights of the game were when a few guys hit some infield/outfield homeruns. Our pitcher caught one in the knee. We had a pitch runner running with a Gatorade in his hand. Our catcher tagged out a player in the face. We had a questionable call on a foul ball I hit and we tried to use my camcorder to do an instant reply, but it didn't work given the angle. And we finished 3.5 minutes ahead of the agreed time, but like I said I had a great time.My stats were; 2 for 4, 1 single, 1 double, 2 RBIs, 2 runs, and a strikeout (the only one in the game) my wife calls me a loser (isn't she sweet?), but I felt like I did pretty well (that's all that matters). I hope we do events like this again.
Movie Review: X-Men: The Last Stand
Great movie, especially seeing the mighty Pheonix rise from the ashes. Man did Jean look ever so scary. As usual Hugh Jackman did a great job as Wolverine being the deciding factor at all times. He may not look powerful, but he is. The battle between Pyro and Iceman was kind of weak and I thought that Magneto would have come of with an even better way to get his brotherhood to Alcatraz. Oh well.
Even though Singer passed this up to do Superman Returns, Brett Ratner did a great job in this movie. If you love Marvel & the X-Men check this one out. Of course it's an owner.
Here are some of my fellow movie friends response:
I'm gonna have to go back and see the first 2 now! It was that good.

Fun times. My mother came into town for a week long visit and we decided to introduce her to the Pocket Sandwich Theater (http://www.pocketsandwich.com/). Our good friend Heather also joined us. They were performing Steel Magnolias. Most of you might remember the movie starring Dolly Pardon, Sally Field, Julia Roberts, Shirley MacLaine, Daryl Hannah & Olympia Dukakis. I'm not going to rate this movie, but I will give a brief comment.
When the show started I was bummed to discover that we did get any popcorn. Usually, the audience get to throw popcorn at the performed for fun, but I guess it's not at every show for on the back of the program we notice something that would appear just after the title of the show, "Another Popcorn Tosser". I all made since now.
As the show went on I realize that this was more of their serious comedies (I know oxymoron). Some of their other plays are hammed up for fun. The last show we saw like that was called Phantom Of The Opera (our introduction to Pocket Sandwich). It was great & hilarious. Steel Magnolias was a wonderful performance and definately moved us at the end. Now I have to see the movie again for I mixed up this movie with Fried Green Tomatoes. Common mistake I'm sure.
We will be going back to Pocket Sandwich Theater to see future shows including their improv comedy. Check out the link above if interested and for more information.
