It Was Pretty Good

Well, that was okay, of course any of you who know me know that's pretty high praise. In order to be great the girl who played Uhura would have to watch the movie with me. I won't give away too much just in case you haven't watched it yet, but pretty much all of the movies, TMBG, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager no longer matter. I don't even know if Tuvoc would still be alive. Maybe he would, cause if the movie answered one question, its how you get a black Vulcan. The one problem I had was how he could go from cadet to Captain in just a few days. Of course I'm an ex-marine so those things kind of bother me. Oh Well, I hope you enjoyed it as much our more then I did.
Congrats Kelly, that is an amazing accomplishment and I wish you all the best in what ever you will do. I wish I could have been there, and lord knows I tried, I just couldn't get the time off. I'll get out ther some day, maybe next year. Also, if you make an NHL game try and put Nash our Mason on the cover will you, and give them super skills.

A Hard Days Night

This picture just remindes me of The Beatles - A Hard Days Night

Let's try this again

Silly Flickr and its attempt to charge for photo uploads. On a great suggestion from Dad I have created an account on Photobucket for our family photo albums. It appears to be unlimited and free, with the additional option of uploading video. Here is the login info!

Want hiking?

After hiking in Seattle, I feel like hiking again!  I know hiking around Missouri won't be the same (not a temperate rain forest), but I'm sure it will still be cathartic and fun.

I found a trail called Hercules Glades Wilderness that is part of the Mark Twain National Forest.  It's near Ava, Missouri which is about an hour and a halfish away.  There are several different trails you can go on, and it is supposed to be very beautiful.

Here is some more information:

• GORP: Hercules Glades Wilderness
  
• Wilderness.net
• Danny's Missouri Backpacking Reviews

Weather-pending, would anyone be interested in going hiking during the next couple of weeks?  I am free all day Saturday (Mykl isn't sure if he is yet),  or we could go the weekend after that probably.   Thoughts?

Family Album

Everyone took lots of great photos on their own personal cameras during the Seattle trip, and I was thinking it would be cool if we could compile them in one place. I have created a Jacobs Family Flickr account. It's a site where we can upload photos, create albums, share them with friends, etc. Use this login information to sign in to our account, and feel free to upload your photos! This can be used for future photos, too, not just the Seattle trip. Create a new album under our account to share with the family whenever you feel like it. Here's how...

I will be posting our Seattle photos soon, hopefully tonight. Happy loading!

TMNT Shell-abration

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have turned 25!  Yay!  In honor of the event there are shellabrations going on across the country.  They even turned the lights on the Empire State Building to 'turtle green'.  Also, there is a new brawl game coming out later this year.  It is being made by many of the same people who worked on the last Super Smash Bros.  In addition to this they have also announced a new live action movie, due out in 2011.  For the movie it appears it will all be done with real people with cgi faces for the turtles.  I was scepticle about this at first but it seems whoever it was that did Davey Jones head in the 'Pirate's' movies is going to be doing the work for them here.  

I'm gonna go pop in my TMNT 2 arcade game for the NES.   See yous guys on the plane!

merry warts dayz turtles!
