American Idol Returns: The Top 12
Mood:

hug me
The American Idol finalists this year are definitely better than the top 12 last year. Lots of good voices especially with the guys.

It will be a tough choice, but I favour Bo Bice because he has superior entertainment skills. Of the girls, Carrie Underwood impresses me the most. Reminds me of Faith Hill.

It should be a showdown between New Country and good old Rock and Roll.

The Barron Renovations Continue
Mood:

energetic
After renovating the garage, the bathroom and the office last year, we've finally got around to the bedroom. It's only going to be a new paint job and new carpet, but we've got to move some very heavy bureaus and other furniture to do it.

Both my wife and her son have no trouble doing this work, because they're Newfies. It's part of their cultural heritage to be handy around the house. They're real beavers and Canadian ones at that.

It's Time To Do The Taxes Again
Do you get a refund or do you have to pay? In my family, I do the taxes with Quicktax software. After three returns, everyone, is getting a refund this year. Maybe not as much as they like, but it's better than giving a donation to Revenue Canada.

I hope you're getting something back.

Prayer Of The Week
St. Theresa's Prayer:

May today there be peace within. May you trust your highest power that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite
possibilities that are born of faith. May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be
content knowing you are a child of God.... Let this presence settle into our bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It
is there for each and every one of you.

Pass this prayer to another.

A Prayer For NHL Peace
I pray that the Player's Association and NHL owners will be able to recognize the rights, duties and privileges of the other side as well as their own.

I pray that they will be able to see how a prolong lockout damages the economy of an area where NHL hockey is played.

I pray that the player's association will put more attention on improving the feeble pensions of players who have retired.

I pray for love and understanding of each other at the negotiation table.

I pray for a new NHL contract that is sane and promotes a better game of hockey to North America and the world.

And most of all, I pray that this is your prayer too.

Movie Review 90: The Forgotten
Mood:

a-ok
Although the story was slow to develop, it did unfold credibly with atequate spookiness and suspense.

There was a unique point of view on mysterious deaths/disappearances and memory losses.

I found this particular science fiction theme to be very realistic with regards to human relationships and experiences. It gives a whole different meaning to the phrase: "get a life." Three stars.

Have You Ever Been Contacted By Aliens?
I firmly believe that many religious leaders of yesterday were contacted by advanced alien organizations. Unfortunately, there would be no clear memory of the experience because aliens routinely shut it down in the mind.

It is difficult to prepare humans for first contact. A human used as a reluctant ambassador may not correctly communicate the informantion given him.

An attempt to link telepathically may have tragic results.

However, despite the dangers of mental overwhelm, I sincerely believe that such contact opens doors for those seeking to know the truth about themselves, others and religious mythology.

I Don't Need The Job/I Need The Money
Mood:

hungry
Still working lots of overtime. Still trying to keep ahead of the bills. The old van is starting to show its age. We'll need to get a new one very soon.

Am I tired? You bet, but I'm not tired of making money in order to keep our home in good shape and buy a few amenities like a decent automobile.
