The Truth About Cancer

I have been watching the Truth About Cancer series this week.  They release one episode each day.  Usually at the end they show all the episodes again.  I have been blown away with the information shared in the documentary.  There is such hope out there - cures that will build up the body instead of destroying it.  Since most of us have been or will be touched by cancer in some way, I recommend everyone watching it.  The information here may someday save your life or that of a loved one.  We can change the world by educating one person at a time.

Saturday Movie Night: Mystery Men

In honor of Halloween, I've picked a movie that has grown men and women playing dress-up.  Mystery Men is not your usual super hero film.  It's a bunch of well-meaning sidekick-types with second-rate powers who band together to (of course) save the world.  Lots of fun, little-to-no depth.

Saturday Night Movie Night: Phantom of the Opera

I hate to admit it, but I really don't like musicals.  Just when the story starts to get good, the cast breaks into a mind-numbing song.  I'm sorry to offend all of the musical lovers out there, but I'm just not that cultured.  The Phantom of the Opera, however, isn't your usual musical.  The story is intense, the actors are phenomenal, and the music is amazing.  Safe for kids, but my son Ben was afraid of the Phantom, so we couldn't even play the music in the house for a while.
