Friends

AnthonyJ — Tue, 31 May 2005 06:21:35 +0000

Close friends contribute to our personal growth. They also contribute to our personal pleasure, making the music sound sweeter, the wine taste richer, the laughter ring louder because they are there.

Judith Viorst

Age appears best in four things: old wood to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read.

Francis Bacon

Don’t be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.

Richard Bach

Movie Review - The Interpreter

AnthonyJ — Mon, 23 May 2005 09:41:34 +0000

I was looking forward to this movie as I thought it had the potential to be a good story with good actors, a good director and an interesting idea. The story had a lot of turns that made no sense to me and had me wondering what was supposed to be happening. It almost seemed at times that the movie was a series of random scenes that were edited together with the scenes out of sequence. I even noticed that some of the dialogue did not always make sense.

With the level of actors in this movie it is too bad the script was so bad. The climax was anti-climatic and really did not make sense. The twists were sprinkled throughout and most did not work with the story.

Poor script and poor directing make this a disappointing movie.

Arghh gives The Interpreter a 1 out of 5. Wait till it shows up on late night television.

What Kind of Traveller am I?

Middle of Road Traveler

Try for yourself

You’re the Zen Traveler. You know that there’s a balance to everything–too cheap a budget could cause a lot of problems but that too much will sever your ties with the locals. You also know that you can’t do everything yourself! We’ll give you suggestions on great places to see, but all within reason!

You know that everything comes in moderation. Why bother taking dubious transport when you know that there’s an issue with safety? If your life worth saving a few dollars, euros, yuan or pesos? At the same time you know that going in style probably means missing out on meeting with the locals and is usually a waste of money . It’s foolish to sway to extremesâ€”take the middle path.

You also know that as people we need others and we need downtime. You are happy to be supported by a group but also love to take some time to do things by yourself. Why allow all of your time to be taken up by others or by just being by your lonesome. Variety is the spice of life, and you know that you need variety in your schedule. There’s time to have a late night out with your new friends as well as time for sipping ginger tea at an outdoor cafÃ© while reading a book.

New Golf Clubs Part Deux

AnthonyJ — Mon, 09 May 2005 05:35:21 +0000

I have visited the Driving Range with my new clubs and I am impressed with the difference. I was pleasantly surprised with how well I was striking the ball with the new clubs. The Fairway Wood make it very different when I would use my 3 Iron I now use a 3, 5 or 7 Fairway Wood. very differnt feeling when I hit the ball. Sweet sound when I make contact.

Now I need to have a few practice games to really get comfortable with my new clubs.

New Golf Clubs

AnthonyJ — Tue, 26 Apr 2005 06:21:23 +0000

Well I finally have taken the time to go and look and find a new set of clubs. I get to retire my old set of Wilson Clubs which I am embarrased to say I bought at a Garage Sale about 5 years ago. Paid about $2o if I remember correctly. They have served me well but I knew the first time I tried my Brother’s clubs and then my friend Joe’s clubs at the driving Range I knew I had to take the plunge.

So I did my research online and asked my friends what they were using then I started the store crawl and played avoid the sales guy until I was ready to buy. I found a couple of sets I liked and finally settled on a Graphite set at Nevada Bob’s. I like the fact you can try before you buy.

I bought a set of Jazz Vantage

A Nice set, we will have to take them out and see if they can help my game. I will keep you updated.

Too Many Places to Go Too Little Time

AnthonyJ — Sat, 23 Apr 2005 05:50:26 +0000

I have been browsing a bunch of Travel web sites lately. I need a vacation just cannot decide where to go. Too many places I want to visit just not sure where I can go or what will meet my fancy. Cuba is interesting, another cruise to the Carribbean would be nice or maybe Fiji or Tahiti. The common thread is all of these places are in the tropics. So I guess I want to goto the sun and enjoy the sun and water.

Not sure where yet but just know I need to start planning a getaway.

Maybe a roadtrip…..Not too sure about work, I know I cannot get a long period of time off so I guess I need to figure out a way to do this short term or make a big decision.

Wish I had more time to explore.

What Quote Fits me

Your wise quote is: “The best antiques are old
friends” by Unknown…
Your buds is the source of your happiness
(maybe not all but still). Even if it’s just
one, a couple or a whole group they are the
ones you can’t wait to see. It does not matter
if you’re shy with everyone else or not, with
them you let your true spirit shine and can be
as loud as you want. They accept you, and you
love them for that.

Weather

AnthonyJ — Thu, 21 Apr 2005 05:22:05 +0000

The weather has changed for the better. This last week we have had sunshine and it has warmed up to the low 20 degree range. I sometimes wish I did not spend so much time inside working. It makes me appreciate the time I do get to spend outside.

I Can’t Beleive it is April Already

AnthonyJ — Thu, 07 Apr 2005 05:28:09 +0000

Where does the time go, I can’t beleive it is April. I have no idea where the time goes. I think my life is running past me at high speed. Anyone have any idea how to slow down the pace a little? Sometimes I want the world to stop and let me off for a bit.

Everything seems to go at high speed in our world. I sometimes miss the quiet slow pace of my childhood. Lazy summer days, playing ball, going to the ice cream shop for a double scoop. Bicycling to the creek for a cold dip.

Why do we have to grow up. Life was so simple at one time.
