Can You Feel It [the love]

When the Lion King came out, I remember Elton John telling James Dobson during an interview that he "Hoped Christians would find a way to use his songs during church services to exclaim the glories of marriage between a man and a woman." Today I can safely say that on Sunday I will be able to safely say "Today we have realized Sir Elton John's dream. Finally a song from The Lion King will bring Christian couples closer together."

The song, 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight (hey-bum-ba-we)' was originally released with The Lion King on a cassette tape. The version of the song we are using is the Elton John sang version, but there is also the classic, with an introduction by Timon and Pumba.

On top of using this song to enhance our service, the new Indiana Jones trailer can be found at this link. While I'm still not sold on the movie, the preview got me to chuckle. Harrison Ford can probably pull it off. Maybe. It's going to depend on how heavily they rely on CG. I hope it works, because it comes out my birthday week, and that means that everyone will be like "for your birthday I'm taking you to a movie" and the last three times people have actually said that, the movies have sucked.

Two years ago I saw X-men 3. The movie was so awful that after watching it I broke
up with my girlfriend. I'm sure had I not seen that movie I would still be in a happy relationship.

In ninth grade I saw The Phantom Menace with a group of friends on my birthday. I say 'friends' loosely, because had any of them taken the time to find out how awful that movie would turn out, they would have saved all of us time.

Probably the only movie that could be worse than that came out when I was in sixth grade, and it was another "let's go see it on Matt's birthday!" I believe that this movie is half the reason that I got a D in Spanish 2 my freshman year. Godzilla. Yuck. What a horrible movie. For anyone who didn't know, Godzilla was the worst movie ever. I'd start tearing it apart, but if you haven't seen it, it might spark curiosity into you, and that's the one thing I don't want to do. It's that awful. Don't watch it.

Anyways, work calls. I can feel it.

Those thugs be steppin' on bugz

I'm watching the pro bowl.  It's not very exciting.  In fact, it reminds me of pee wee volleyball.  Boring pee wee volleyball.  There must be a better way to do it.

Maybe they should just pull a Rocky six and simulate it on Madden 96 for SNES.  They could let the two best quarterbacks create teams, but they have to use the roster from their pro bowl team to name the players.
