The city of Nashville was rocked by the murder on July 4th of Steve McNair, I feel badly for his wife and children, this will be something that is very hard for them to forget. It seems that McNair was having an affair with a 20 year old woman and she shot him and then shot herself. A great tragedy that would not of happened if McNair was at home with his wife and children. I pray for his kids this will be very tough on them.
Death
3-D
We finally got a chance to see a movie in 3-D at the theater. I was not so impressed that i will be willing to spend the extra money to see a first run 3-D movie. It cost me almost $50 for three tickets and sodas and popcorn for my wife and I with our grandson. I can wait for the movies to come out on DVD for that price. Every old person in American can tell you how much the movie was in their day and I am no exception to that rule. It was $1.50 to get in and we brought our own sodas in our pockets of our coats, big change to today. I wish for the old days.
Cheaters
In a couple of weeks baseball cheater Manny Ramirez will return to major league baseball, and baseball will never be the same. I fear that Manny will be herald as a hero when he returns. Hell he did not go to war to fight for his country, I am not sure what his country is for sure. He was suspended for drug abuse and he should not be allowed to return to baseball, a game we have our kids play because it is the American past time. I for one will not cheer when Manny makes his return on July 3rd.
Fathers Day
Sunday is Fathers Day and I have absolutly no idea what to get for my Dad. He has everything he has ever wanted in this life and anything that I get as a gift will just be put on a shelf in the garage with all of the other gifts I have given him. One thing I might just do is get him a gift certificate to Home Depot, I think that is a great gift that even my grumpy old father would like on Fathers Day this year. Happy Fathers Day Walter I hope you like the gift card you got this year.
Movie time
Yesterday was the release date of a new movie that I have wanted to see since it was playing in the theater. We never seem to get out of the house long enough to go to a movie so I wait for the movie to be released on DVD. Then we get into bed with all five dogs well last night it was only four, Miss Dot must not be a Clint Eastwood fan. Gan Torino was good not Eastwood’s best effort but I enjoyed it and was very glad that I got to see it last night. I hope that is not his last movie as an actor.
