Life can get pretty crazy and it’s easy to let things get away from
me. I need to remember little moments like this date with my wife, Jade.

Someone get Brent Nims an iPhone so I don’t keep crushing his spirit
with all my cool tales of touch screen loveliness!
Thanks for your patience while I attempt to redesign this site bit by bit. Let me know if you have any ideas or desires. About the site, Frank! I’m not rubbing your feet!
It was/will be an honor to serve with you 18 years in the future when “55 year old me” was/will be sent back in time to make sure you charged your Blackberry. The fate of Saginaw, Michigan depends on it.
On pourrait penser que ma femme, Jade, et je suis seulement comme French Toast, French Fries et French Kissing. Eh bien, de temps en temps, nous nous plaisons à regarder un film français.
Nous avons récemment vu Kristen Scott Thomas dans “Il ya longtemps que je t’aime” écrit et réalisé par Philippe Claudel. J’ai été très impressionné par son travail, à l’exception de Random Hearts, mais qui a été le plus souvent parce que Han Solo est sans Chewbacca. Je sais, impardonnable. Dans ce film, elle se transforme en une puissante performance comme un ex-taulard qui vivent en dehors de la prison pour la première fois en 15 ans. A travers le film que vous découvrez dans ce qu’elle a été et pourquoi. Une véritable histoire déchirante. Elle a dû porter le poids de l’histoire dans ses yeux et elle l’a fait si bien.
J’ai eu une famille en prison et j’ai toujours été curieux de ce que ce serait de sortir de prison et d’essayer de recommencer dans la vie. Ce n’est pas quelque chose que je veux apprendre de première main. Bien que, j’ai une idée, après la séance par le biais de Random Hearts. LOL! C’est un appel à ma référence à ce film! Non? Eh bien, je suis très drôle en France.
Je n’ai pas hate it!
There are a few actors out there that get to a point in their career where you can just trust that what ever they make will be worth watching. Clint Eastwood has been in that zone for a while now. Either directing or acting or both. Of course there is the occasional doozy. All the greats have them. Eastwood did The Rookie.
DeNiro did Rocky & Bullwinkle.
Dane Cook did Employee of the Month
In the Eastwood directed Gran Torino, Clint stars as Korean War vet Walt Kowalski. He is a man set in his ways, good or bad. He has problems with everybody. His sons, his grand kids, his wife’s priest, his neighbors. His neighbors are mostly Hmong and he ain’t happy about it. He has a derogatory name for every ethnic group. He’s pretty racist. Sidebar: I can’t say the word racist without saying it like Ricky Gervais’ character, David Brent, from the original UK version of The Office. In this politically correct (some say sensitive) time, it’s refreshing to see a flawed character like Walt. He’s like a taller, tougher Archie Bunker. No George and Weezy in this one, unfortunately.
I’ve always liked Clint Eastwood. I remember when I was 7 or 8, I saw Every Which Way But Loose. My mom and step-dad weren’t the most attentive in the whole “Should a 7 year old be watching this?” department. I loved it! There was Bikers and fisticuffs and an orangutan named Clyde. In the biker scenes the bikers drink Wild Turkey. So my step-dad thought it wise to join in kind. “Boy, get me my Wild Turkey!” he’d gently request. So, I’d go pour him a drink quick as Tom Cruise in Kokomo so I didn’t miss the funny fight scenes. Oh, the memories.
Back to Gran Torino! What could have been a pretty predictable story was actually pretty funny and moving. Eastwood is the Grumpiest Old Man and you really feel for him and his poor neighbors. Tôi đã không ghét nó!
What? You don’t speak Vietnamese?
