97.5 The Oasis

There’s a new radio station in Salt Lake City that I personally view as an intriguing social experiment. 97.5 The Oasis is a contemporary Christian station, but, unlike most (probably all) stations of its kind, it also plays contemporary LDS music. Just this morning I heard Kenneth Cope and Michael W. Smith back to back.
The [...]

Akeelah and the Bee

My wife and I watched a wonderful movie a few days ago called Akeelah and the Bee. After watching it over a week ago, my wife’s Granny called it simply, “The best picture I’ve ever seen.” I couldn’t put it any better, myself.
When I was a kid, I read Charlotte’s Web probably a dozen times. [...]

Robots

Upon hearing that Robots was more action-packed than most computer animated films, I was looking forward to another The Incredibles. Unfortunately, Robots was a huge let-down.

The Amazing Race 6

“["The Amazing Race 6":http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race6/]” kicked off last night. I first started watching this show during “season 5″:http://www.joeyday.com/2004/07/11/amazing-race-5 this summer, and I highly recommend it. If you missed last season, now’s a good time to start watching!
The Amazing Race airs Tuesdays at 9:00 pm Eastern and Pacific.

Strong Bad Sings

I received a fun little package in the mail last week: the “Strong Bad Sings CD“:http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Strong_Bad_Sings_CD.
Some of the songs are lame, but for the most part it’s a great CD. I especially like “The Cheat is Not Dead,” “Techno,” and all the songs by Limozeen and Taranchula.

Amazing Race 5

I’ve found my new favorite show. I watched _["The Amazing Race 5":http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race5/]_ last night and loved every minute of it. I’ve seen advertisements for this show many times before and was always mildly interested, but somehow I never got around to watching it. I’m not sure how I missed four whole seasons, but I’m definitely [...]

Lord of the Rings Review

I’m still not quite sure how I stumbled across this site, but it had a great review of Lord of the Rings that I thought I would share with you all. Enjoy!
