Hey, sorry...our internet has been down for awhile, so if I have
failed to e-mail you...don't take it personally :o) I will try and
get back to you soon. I am borrowing Veronica's computer at the
office to type this...go figure, my computer is the one to not
connect at the office too...hmmm...Calyn probably shouldn't let me
touch that hair dryer she bought yesterday...it may blow up and burn
the whole apartment complex down :o)

We finally got to see Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Talk about a let
down. I mean, let me talk to you about Jack Sparrow for a moment.
*edit: Captain Jack Sparrow* He is this really awesome, totally in
control (though a bit clumsy at times) guy. I mean, entrance scene
in Pirates 1, Captain Jack Sparrow is sailing a ship singlehandedly
and as it sinks to the bottom of the ocean, he steps off the mast
onto the dock. Hilarious, yet very smooth. This is the character
that is developed throughout the whole first movie. But with the
second one, it's like they just through that whole person out the
window. There is not a trace of him to be found save a name and
Johnny Depp playing the part. Terrible. And this was the case with
all the characters. Calyn and I re-watched the first one just to
restore our faith in it. We have decided to pretend the second one
never happened. It's better that way. Much like Ocean's 11. I hope
X-3 will not disappoint.

I did just read a really good book, though called Safely Home about
some Christians in China. Very good book. Very highly recommended.

Oh, and Roma downloaded Super Mario World so I can play it on my
computer. Amazing. And I even have a controller that you plug into
the USB port...if I could just figure out how to make that work...
