Good Stuff Overload

I’m really not sure I’ve ever had a better weekend. Here are a few of the highlights…

• Watched E.T. with the family. Tanner loved it.

• Went to lunch at Red Robin with Tonia’s family for her birthday.

• Hung out in Ann Arbor and Brighton with Tonia and Tanner for a few hours and laughed quite a bit.

• Went to dinner at Carino’s with my family for Tonia’s birthday.

• Went to church at Northridge.

• Went to chuch at NewSong, and hugged on some close friends.

• Drove to Fort Wayne with Tonia, Tanner, Jessica, Dan, Tyler and Justin for the Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, Louie Giglio worship service.

• Went to Sonic Drive-In and ate well.

Probably the coolest thing I learned was science related. In addition to being reminded by Louie just how HUGE the universe is, we also learned about Laminin. Laminin is a protein in our body that literally holds our skin, organs, and everything else in our body, in place. It was described as the rebar of the human body—it holds us all together. Sound interesting?

Long Live the 80′s!

You could feel it ten years ago when they started talking about the Star Wars prequels. People just love The Eighties, and now they have returned in full force! Just last week I went to the newest installment of the Rocky series and I’ve heard there’s talk of a possible Rambo return and a Transformers movie in the not so distant future.

Now we have confirmation that Indiana Jones will make a triumphant return to the big screen after 17 years in hibernation. While I liked the Rocky addition, and the Rambo will be fun entertainment, this one looks to have all the makings of giant hollywood production. George Lucas. Harrison Ford. Steven Spielberg. I expect some serious marketing on this one too.

It’s set to hit theaters May 2008. What’s next, E.T. Returns? Yep!
