road trip!
Posted on Thursday, August 31, 2006 All of my road trip pics have been posted on my flickr site. I've posted 190 photos, and each has been tagged, captioned. The photos will take you to Sonic: America's Drive-In outside of Lancaster, PA, then to Mars, then across the Ohio River and into West Virginia. Along the road you will see two different Nuclear Power Plants, drive through Flemington, WV, and then into Virginia. In Virginia you will see Shenandoah National Park and Luray Caverns, and then travel the road back to New Jersey. link |

My list of visited states has increased & I have the photos to prove it. In the next few days I will post a route map of my 2006 Road Trip that brought me from NJ to PA to WV to OH to WV to MD to WV to VA to MD to DE to PA to NJ. I will also post most of the 250ish pictures that Kevin and I took on the trip to my Flickr site. But first i will get some much needed rest ... zzzzzzzz link |

thirty days in sixty minutes
Posted on Thursday, August 03, 2006
For sixty minutes you have the opportunity to see the world through someone else's eyes every week on FX's docu-series, 30 Days. Created and hosted by Morgan Spurlock (of Super Size Me fame), 30 Days sends people to live in someone else's shoes for 30 Days. 30 Days manages to do something that every other reality television show has not been able to do -- it actually makes you think.
The first episode of the second season aired last week. "Immigration" follows Frank as he is sent to live with a family of illegal immigrants. Frank, a legal Cuban immigrant himself, is a right-wing Minuteman of the South with very strong opinions against illegal immigration. The second episode, which aired last night, followed Chris Jobin on his 30 day trip to find work in Bangalore, India. Chris is a former computer programmer who lost his job to Indian outsourcing.
If you look past the obvious messages in each episode of 30 Days, the underlying theme is something rare to television and media. At it's best, 30 Days transcends greed, religion, country, sexuality and ethnicity. It shows you real people -- humanity -- and our struggle everyday to survive. Although there have been a few bummer episodes in its very short run (the season run is only 6 episodes), 30 Days is really worth checking out. Doing so just might make you a better person. 30 Days airs Wednesdays at 10 (and is reaired at 11) on FX. Check your listings. link |
