You can leave, but you can never go back…
I’ve rambled on and on before in my journal about how I miss being in marching band and playing, and even though I know you’re probably sick of hearing about how much I wish I was back in those days again, this is my journal, so it’s only right that I write about the things…

Land of the Dead
Just about anyone that’s ever seen a film is familiar with his work. He single-handedly created an entire sub-genre, and he’s been recognized as a revolutionary film maker. No, I’m not talking about Stephen Spielberg, I’m talking about George Romero. Getting his start creating commercials for light-hearted companies such as Calgon, George Romero changed the…

Headed out
With Kristen and I leaving tomorrow morning for Florida I’m finding myself getting more and more excited. It’s not so much being in Florida that’s exciting as much as it is just the excitement of a long road trip though I have to admit that I’m really looking forward to spending some time on the…
