Book Review of "Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie" by Jordan Sonnenblick. - About a normal 8th grade boy growing up, liking girls, playing drums, angsting out when his little bro gets leukemia. His life and family 'falls apart' (but not really. not at all. he has no idea what real tragedy is.) and he deals with it. Supported by not one but two girls seeking his attention, the entire school faculty and an 'all-star' band, he's not really hurting that bad after. But the book is touching, the characters and dialog real, it's not a Disney ending and it made me cry. It doesn't take much to make me cry. I highly recommend this book. Simon's teacher recommended it to him - for obvious reasons. Thank You Ms. Jue!
Movie Review "Buy The Ticket. Take The Ride." - great little documentary about Hunter S. Thompson that will make you want to go travel, write like gonzo, and gain some semblance of 'personal freedom'. Must viewing for all of us members of the 'doomed generation'. 4.0 / 5.0
Movie Review "Blades of Glory" - Will Ferrel and the Napolean Dynamite guy. Yawn. Slightly homophobic. Yawn again. 2.5 / 5.0
Beuford and Matt with brave faces, full of Bud Lite at a brutal 1 run Fenway loss to the Evil Empire. Brah!
questions:
Like the Police font?!
How would you describe color to a blind person?
How would you describe life to a not yet born person?
