Yea, another three day weekend for me, this time for Labor Day. We're not doing anything per se to celebrate but just knowing that we don't work tomorrow is pretty cool in itself.
Friday night we actually saw some rain. It's been pretty dry around here lately and we broke a record for 59 days this year of temps higher than 100. it actually feels nice to be in a chilly 95 degrees. It's still kinda humid and moist outside but that's cool.
yesterday saw the new movie Gamer with Gerard Butler. It was pretty good, considering. It's kinda like The Running Man. Prisioners can go free if they can fight their way out of a series of gunfights and the like. The only difference this time is that there is someone controlling them on the outside, via a controller, like a game so to speak. their actions mirror what the person in control is doing in hyperspace. Not bad. Not bad at all.
Last night dad called me that he just finished watching THE MIST. The only reason he called me was because he noticed that it was a Stephen King movie. He knows i love his writing. He also told me that he had been to Matamoros this Friday and that there had been three shootings there. Now he's gonna think twice before going over there again. He still will, but at least he won't take it so lightly now. Told him so.....
Finally finished reading John Saul's "In the Dark of the Night". Took me awhile because i've been so busy lately in cyberspace. It's about this kids that unknowingly unleash more killings when the ghosts of serial killers are awakened via collectibles that a now dead man had bought. It was classic Saul where he begins with something that happened in the past and now in the present comes back for a second round.
I'm now reading The Hanged Man's Song by John Sanford. This one is about a computer hacker named Kidd. It's a returning character in several books, like the ones about Detective Davenport. I just started it, sounds interesting, lots of computer stuff.
