Well, it was about as ho-hum as you could get, I guess. No big surprises. Nothing exciting. And the music … the music … was there music? Seems like there wasn’t. At least nothing memorable. But still I like to watch ‘em. I’m a sucker for this stuff!
Oh .. and Depp … well, he just [...]
I found this list (below) via terminaldegree’s site (which I usually visit from my oboe site) via Making Peace With Myself’s site. You needed to know all that, right?
So what the heck, I’ll join in!
Oscar nominated movies from 2004 that I HAVE seen:

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

So you write. And read.
And then you turn around.

Yesterday’s post sounded a bit arrogant. Sigh.
I’m good at that.
I don’t mean to sound arrogant. I certainly don’t mean to sound as if I see all things clearly while the left & right don’t. Shoot, sometimes I am the left or the right. Mostly I’m the middle.
No. Mostly I’m the muddle.

I realized this morning that I was missing my checkbook. The last time I remembered having it was at the ATM at Wells Fargo. So I quickly drove over there.
When I asked the teller if they might have it she said “We might. If it’s been over three days, though, we destroy them.”

I read blogs from the extreme right. I read blogs from the extreme left. It’s because of who I am, I guess. (I’m a Christian who is a musician and someone who believes in absolutes and a registered Democrat (gasp!) who is anti some things and pro others - which I won’t go into here [...]
