Heat = Water Guns

Short work week and starting to warm up this week as we enter summer. I am not liking it and hope it cools off just a little bit. Natalia got a some water guns. Wait! Guns for a 3 year old? Isn't that forbidden now? No! She is having much fun with them. I will not dwell in any politics or rants this time around. I lock myself up on my cabin and tune the world out. Simply so much nonsense out there lately. Even a nice little house way out in the corner of Apple Valley would be nice. Well, maybe not with this heat.

Went to see World War Z with Roisin and found the movie entertaining. I knew it was not going to be like the book as the book took a whole different approach to tell the story. Had a great time getting a tour of Apple Valley, the Town of Apple Valley and the movie. Below is a small video clip of what a World War Z movie would be if based on the book. There is already word on a sequel to World War Z, but I don't see a reason for it.

Finished reading A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court and found it a nice read. More of a look at two societies and how the 19th century is being developed in the 6th century England to "develop it" by changing religious views and moving out religion from being the leadership role. My next read was Animal Farm by George Orwell. I much liked 1984 as it applies to today and found Animal Farm another book I feel everyone should read. A short read and makes some points about humanity and society. After hearing the Joe Haldeman interview from Sword & Laser and him being one of my favorite authors I decided to read Camouflage after he talked so much about it.
