I saw The Golden Compass today. It was a really good movie. I have never heard of the book before. I guess it is pretty popular to be made in to a movie. The movie is about a world parallel to ours where people’s souls live outside them as animals. There is a ruling government that wants to eliminate this and control the population. There is a way in to the other worlds and Daniel Craig is trying to find out how. His niece is giving a compass that sees the truth. She is trying to find out whom is stealing the kids. It was a great special effect and wonderful story. I suggest seeing it at the new Rave Motion Picture at the Town Square. DLP ROCKS!!!
I saw Alvin and the Chipmunks today. It was pretty good. It was totally cheesy but it had a good story. They met Dave and they freaked him out because they were real chipmunks but they could talk and sing. Dave writes the Christmas song for them. They become famous. There is drama and songs and happy ending. Good fun, really funny parts. I recommend it to people.
There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no death, there is the Force.
Well I moved today. I was living with my parents for about a year because the house I was living in was sold because the Mormons did not like our lifestyle. I moved back in with my friends from that house in to a real nice apartment. Three bedroom, two bath, two car attached garage. It is really nice. I will be the first time I will be living with people not my parents. I mean I did live with them before but I was really just staying there. I didn’t pay rent. Now I am paying rent. I’m on the lease. Well I will be once I schedules match to go to office together. It will be interesting. This is the true story. True store. About six people living in an a apartment and stop being polite and start being real. The real world. No I am joking. We are all polite. I enjoy these people there are adjustments to make
Podkayne of Mars was the first book I read of Robert A. Heinlein. It is the story of a girl named Podkayne Fries. All her life she wanted to be a pilot. So when the chance to take a cruise from her home planet of Mars to Venus then on to Earth with her diplomatic uncle Tom, it was a dream come true. The only trouble was she had to take her bothersome brother Clark along.
Uncle Tom is the Ambassador Plenipotentiary from Mars to the Three Planets Conference. That makes him and his neice and nephew targets for oppossers trying to stop the conference. When Podkayne and Clark are kidnapped from Venus it is an adventure to stay alive.
Great book. It is a juvenile book, thats where Heinlein started his career, but it is not written like a kids book. Podkayne is smart, confident and and strong. Clark is really smart and clever even if he is trouble. The book is short but the story is entertaining. Even with the the juvenile book he still hit some of the themes he was famous for.
My best friend told me about an author, a science-fiction author, by the name of Robert A. Heinlein. He is the Grand Master of Science-Fiction. He started writing as a way to pay the mortage and it just took off from there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_heinlein Read up on the man. His fiction involves real science. I thought I was pretty smart, but after reading some of his books I really need to learn more. He writes about life and love and sex and politics and religon all in the realm of science-fiction. He starting writing about a future in 1937 that is our present now. He was talking about open sex and freedom from Religions. Good values in life and love. Time travel and space exploration. There was comedy and drama. Action, adventures aliens and cats. I really can’t tell you about all the generas and themes there are in his books. I have read about 15 of them and I will be blogging about each book. There are also complimation books with all the articles and short stories he wrote. I will be reading them and blogging on them also. BLERT!!!
