Many of my friends know that I used to be quite thrilled with live poultry. Not the kind of typical "foster farms" white dumb chicken, but the awesome looking show-type. I used to have literally over a hundred chickens at one point, and within that number there was dozens of different species. My parents were always supportive, and were nice enough to give me a corner of our yard back in Fullerton. I made a ghetto coup at the time and threw a few birds in. Now days, my dad and I have rebuilt the entire coop into a luxury hen house. He mostly keeps them for the eggs but I speculate that there is times where he simply keeps them for memories of his son obsessing over these chickens. Thanks Dad.
Anyways, just was going over an interesting article from CNN.com

Upcoming movies, me wants to see...
There are a few movies that I hear are in the works for late 2010/early 2011 that have really caught my attention. Last years "District 9" was really a hit for Mr. Neill Blomkamp. I have to say it was very original, and the CGI was great for such a low-budget movie. I hear there is a sequel planned, yay!
Anyways, just as District 9 was such a blockbuster hit on a low budget- I am expecting the same for a movie simply titled, "MONSTERS". Its about an American photojournalist on a mission in a "quarantined zone" in Mexico. I think this one will be a success in the theatres.
I also have mentioned in the past that Zach Snyders "Suckerpunch" is definitely on my list of movies to see. Good stuff on the horizon... love the sci-fi, thriller, comedy, horror stuff. Jack-ass 3D is coming out before the years end. When will those dudes retire? One sci-fi film that I think looks good- but I feel that it may have a weak story line is "Skyline". Aliens. Humans. War. Sound original? Hmm...
Anyways. I'm out.

yay for 100!
This is my 100th post here. Been a few years in the making.
Just got back a couple days ago from a road trip up north to Shingletown. It was a trip to basically drop off my dad. He has been wanting to get up there for a few months and now he finally got there, as well as his sidekick Toby (dog).
Curlee rode with me round trip, making it alot easier to switch drivers. Thank you, good buddy.
We are attempting to get our annual trip together sometime in late September or early October. Hopefully there will be plenty of berries and good fishin' left.
Just got my (fingers crossed) LAST boat part in. Gonna work on the ole' whaler and try to get that thing in the water this weekend. Sheesh, what a project.
The boy is growing SO fast. I think he is just a couple weeks from walking. Yikes.
I'm super exited for the new W.o.W. expasion, Cataclysm. I know my wife hates the inner-nerd that dwells deep within me.
