Roadtrip!


We are headed to our hometown this weekend for a visit to the In-Laws!

I am actually looking forward to The trip! I am going to love seeing Brenda's family as well as some old friends from college and even High School! We are having a get together at one of our old haunts on Saturday night! I love visiting the old neighborhood. The trees are getting sooo BIG!!

I love traveling with Brenda, staying in hotels, camping and even driving!

-- And eating at Waffle House!!

Blogging for the long haul

I have several friends that have blogs.

Some have just started, some have had them for years. Some are topic based, some are simple on-line diaries, and some are even fiction.

I have seen many blogs go though an interesting lifecycle. Excited and prolific at first and then eventually they blog about what they had for dinner.

--Blog away blogmeisters!!

Going Shooting This Weekend


A friend of mine is coming out this weekend to join me for a monthly run to the shooting range at Clark Brothers. I think it is going to be shotguns and .22s this weekend for me. We need to be ready for the Zombies when they come!

I will need to buy another case of clay pigeons!!

--Brenda kinda dropped the last case...

Amazing

It is a Music packed Sunday in Marty's World! I saw this video on YouTube and was VERY impressed.

Imogen Heap sings "Just For Now" live and alone. A beautiful juggling act with an advanced audio sampler.

--I will be buying some new CDs.

Marty's MCR Adventure

Today I am going to see My Chemical Romance and Linkin Park as part of the Projekt Revolution tour. I am excited about going to the concert with my son Gray (11 years old). He is getting his mohawk died purple as I type this!

The tour is focusing on the suburban genres of emo, goth and metal. There is no hip hop in this tour (thankfully).

--Let's hope it doesn't get rained out!

Marty's World Movie Habits!!

Now that Home Theater 1.0 is on line our movie watching habits are going to change.

It is going to take a special event to get us out of our recliners to the movie theater only to suffer 16 year old spoiled brats, talking to their "BBF Jill", during the movie, while snapping gum and eating over priced popcorn.

For the 4 of us to go to the movies, tickets and snacks cost so much, I could buy the DVD and a DVD PLAYER!!

Recently we have watched: 300, Hot Fuzz, The Fountain, and many others I skipped in the theater!! Right now I am makin a list of DVDs to buy! The latest additions:

  • Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
  • The Bourne Ultimatum
  • Heroes - Season 1
  • Stardust
  • Spiderman 3
  • Oceans 13
