If I really think I will like it, movies first. I think on average I go about 3 -4 times a month, could be more. Then rent, then TV most movies I like I watch on TV for the 2nd or 3rd time. If I see a movie on TV I like I will rent it cause I want to watch it in its entirety
About A Boy – it’s a sweet movie about a man who realizes what love and friendship is really about after a long time of being alone. Looking out for number one is good, until he is forced into a friendship with a 12yr old boy, and realizes how being a part of others life’s is not so bad. It’s a bit of a love story not so much of cheesy love story (prince charming meets Cinderella and they live happily ever after) but more realistic.
Seven- this is a bit more of a “thriller” it’s about a serial killer who is basing himself on the “seven deadly sins” – wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony. It made me think about each sin, and just question myself on my own believes or principals for that matter which may be along the lines of a “sin” LOL it was just a well thought out movie, the ending was the best for me. I think it was how the murder ends up turning the table on the “good guy” and how we are all capable of sin, just depends on the situation.

Crash- This may be my favorite! It has prejudice, racism and hatred all in one movie and all felt by a variety of cultures and races. It reminds us how we are all capable of it even when we think we aren’t and how easy it is to stereotype.

Well, I am new to San Antonio and do not spend enough time in my truck to listen to any one station. Plus as soon as I hear the announcers I change it. It was kind of the same back in Houston; I did listen to the “Rula and Ryan” show in the morning on 104KRBE. He was Dem and she was Republican so I think they kept it pretty neutral. I would definitely not listen to ANY of the country radio stations back in Houston after ANY election because they would make me mad. After the 2004 election I actually stayed away from the country radio stations all together for about 2months. LOL
I also did not like listening to 97.9 “the box” in the mornings. The hosts on that show were equally if not worse than the ones on the country stations. It was a “hip-hop” radio station but they seemed to not even find it necessary to hide their ignorance. They gave me an ulcer a couple of times because of the things they talked about. lol
So I guess I pretty much stay away from radio stations who think because of the line of work they are in EVERYONE cares to hear their opinion instead of staying neutral and keeping their view out of whatever they report. Which I am guessing may be hard, but that is why I opt to not listen all together.
