Three years ago a friend of my husband lend us a whole season of 24, I didn’t even know about this show until that time. I remember we were watching 24 for a whole day straight (Pre-babies) that is. Now we tivo the episodes and watched them 2-3 weeks later as babies permitted of course. So I just watched this episode of 24 that was air 3 weeks ago. Let’s talk about Jack! If you ever watch 24 you know that Jack NEVER dies! even if he is dead! How in the world that Jack able to overcome the very mean Russian who was torturing him? Jack has a stab wound, leg and hands tied up and has been getting electrical shock over and over! Still he manage to take over, shock the mean Russian guy knock him unconscious untie himself, shoot people and again SAVE the day(Sorta)! Which bring me to ask how many live does this guy have? He is better than a cat, This is season 7 so that’s 7*24 hours, almost every 2-3 hours Jack is in some kinda situation that would endanger his life BUT Jack always come out alive even if he is dead presumably.Even superman gets a dose of kryptonite once in while NOT Jack!
Any of you guys watch 24? How do you like or hate Super Jack?

I sometimes say my cell phone save my life because it babysit for me [My cell phone babysitter], I can update my facebook, twitter, check email, watch videos, text… all the cool stuff a cool phone can do. But when Dan Woolley says my iPhone saves my life boy did he really mean it. Dan Woolley is one of the many people who were trap under the rubble after the 7.0 magnitude earthquake hits Haiti last week. He was able to use a medical app saved on his iPhone to treat a broken foot. Then, he used the instructions from the app to treat the bleeding from cuts on his legs and the back of his head. He used his camera to take pictures of way out – I never knew the iPhone could take pictures in the dark. That was a great option for him since he couldn’t really see anything, he was looking for refuge following the pictures. He eventually ended up in an elevator shaft were he waited for 65 hours before the rescue crews found him. In his own word “I kind of had some time to do some self-diagnosis down there,” Woolley said. “God was with me.” He also used the notepad app to write his family a note in case he didn’t make it but like he said God was with him in the mist of the darkness. Not that God wasn’t with the rest of them that died… What can I say God works in mysterious ways and His plan differ from person to person. Praise be to God Mr Woollley is alive and receiving care at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami. On a lighter note if he could do all that why didn’t he just call? ummh.. let me think he didn’t have the map! LOL no ATT bashing! bad bad bad Roodlyne

I just watched the Clint Eastwood movie Gran Torino for some reason I keep saying “Grand Torontino” Don’t ask me why I don’t know. Anyway back to the movie… I know this movie has been out and I just saw it. Well, what can I say I a working mom with two babies under the age of two. Sometimes going to the movies can be a luxury. Even going to blockbuster and rent it can be a luxury. So I have to wait until its on HBO, set it to record on my DVR then wait when the clan are asleep, (if they ever fall asleep at the same time) run downstairs and watch the movie. DISCLAIMER!!! if you like me and you haven’t seen the movie and planning on seeing it big spoiler coming up CLICK AWAY! The movie started with the funeral of the wife of a grumpy war veteran.He came back to live in his old neighborhood filled with Hmong (I didn’t know who they were either) and gangs. He (Clint Eastwood) hated these people and they hate him. I would have hate him the guy is so bitter he growl at people. Seriously growl like a angry bulldog. A young Hmong boy being peer-pressured to join a gang was challenge to steal the angry man exquisite 1972 Gran Torino. The car that he apparently put together himself and hold it very dear. Old angry man comes out pull a rifle at the boy and order the rest of them to “Get Off My Lawn” classic phrase! I still laugh saying it “get off my lawn”. Like I said the boy wasn’t a bad kid he was being pressured. So the boy’s mom beg angry old man to let the boy pay amend for trying to steal his car. I wish moms would do that to their kids, make them pay some kinda amend for their offense, so they know that wrong doing comes with a price. That just me.
So the boy ended up working for angry old man, who makes him fix and clean almost everybody’s houses in the block. Over the few weeks of working for him they develop a very unlikely friendship. That was my favorite part: No matter where we came from or what we look like, at the end of the day we just people, if we take the time to get to know each other we’ll realize that we have a lot in common. yadi yadi yada Grumpy old man ended up being not so grumpy anymore, he teach the boy stuff and got him a job even keep the gang away from him. Keeping the gang away was not an easy task He gave His life so these Hmong kids would have a safe gang free life.
Couldn’t help but related this story to the beautiful gift of Christmas. How God pure and Holy choose to give His only son to die for poor sinners. At the end of the movie, the reviewers only talk about the car, no one mention the beautiful sacrificial love between two different group of people. It was a a rated R movie filled with bad language and violence but if you could get past all that there is a beautiful lesson there.
