Not Much

Well its been a few weeks and not much has gone on around here.. Which is usually quite a few things. Last weekend my brothers and I (Scott is home from BYU) as well as the Whitings went to see Batman Begins. I must agree with Adam West, the performances were outstanding. And this, unlike the last two, wasn't over the top. Yesterday was my cousin's Birthday Party. Her new husband arranged it as a surprise. Keith, my brother was swiming in the lake/pond and a fish thought his hanging mole was a worm. He said it hecka hurt but the skin-mole is still unharmed. Well thats enough for a little update. Next week is the 4th of July. It should be much fun.

Disneyland was a BLAST!

Well, it was fun at least. I was glad to get the coupla days off of work and enjoyed the fireworks & parade tremendously. I would suggest going, but wait at least till the 17th of July when Space Mountain reopens.
One of the cool (only) new ride for this year is Space Ranger Blast or something like that. It is a ride but also a game. You shoot targets and get points.. I got 90,000 plus the first time and Pawel got well over a few hundred thousand. Due mostly to a stop in the ride where he shoots a triangle for a min strait. It turns out the triangles are worth the most points.. Not only does the shape determine the points but people playing the game at home light up the targets. There are bonus points for hitting a lit target. The fireworks were by far the best ever. I do like the music for the "Believe!" show from 5 years ago but a few effects stand out in the new show. The show is a series of attractions around the park. The new show adds a projection on the castle and 360 degrees of fireworks at a few key moments. My favorite effects were the Pirates of the Caribbean where the Matterhorn and the Island shoot fireballs at each other, timing it to the soundtrack where the pirate ship fires in the ride. Also the star tours part of the attraction where lasers shoot across the sky. Well we had fun, rode all the rides a bunch of times. (Tower of Terror 4 or 5 times one day). I had Snow White sign a Post Card for Aaris, because Aurora's line was almost an hour long. Thanks to Apricot for his "guest" post the other week. I will be busy for a while spending the rest of the money I don't have on movies. Why do they have to come out with so many at once. i.e Batman Bewiched War of the Worlds Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

It's Jeffrey not Geoffrey

Emily took Jeff shopping and they bought some fabulous new outfits. They even revamped some of his dull old khakis into stylish cut-offs. With new shorts and flip flops Jeff is ready to hit the beach. He must be anticipating the inevitable implosion of PC Focus more than ever. Unemployment would give Jeff the leisure time he so desperately needs. On a lighter note, I hear that Jeff has decided to have lots of fun at Disneyland. That shouldn't be too hard considering the fact that Disneyland is his favorite place. A couple of weeks ago he told his mom that he wanted to marry Mickey Mouse so that he could live at Disneyland.
