Gibson and Douglas at the Movies


You can check you my latest Movie Review for the movie Cars over on my movie site. This time I shared the work with my oldest son Gibson and his buddy Douglas. Thanks to them, I think it is the best review on the site.
Blogger wouldn't let me post the picture of them over there, for reasons unknown, but here are the two of them when Douglas came to spend the night while his baby sister pretended to be ready to be born.

Couldn't leave a comment on the entertaiment page for the movie cars but since you mention it on your blog page I will say this is the cutest review I've ever read. What cute and clever boys you interviewed. I saw the movie and I will agree with all you said. Great movie.

Mom, what happened on the entertainment site? Would it not let you? Is it password protected? Has anyone else had that issue?

Couldn't agree more about the boys obviously.

Thanks for the comment.

The entertainment blog rejected Stumptown Mom signing in because she forgot to use the name MACTASTIC.

The movie review was outstanding. Gibson and Douglas did such an amazing job. Any other movie review just looks bad next to theirs. Yes, Josh, even yours.
Sorry.
I am speaking the truth.

It just occured to me that perhaps Stumptown Mom is YOUR Mom, and not Tanya...but I can only say that after hearing about your childhood 4th of July Celebrations, your Mom could totally wear the name of Mactastic... or something of that nature.

Peggy,

Stumptown Mom, is indeed my Mom, or at least someone posing as my Mom, but in any event is not my mactastic wife. I can't really get behind giving my Mom a pimp name as I find the whole notion just too wierd, but she is definitely cool enough to pull it off.

Mike, thanks for the input. That is very strange. I will look into it. Thanks.

Clearly both of those boys are the product of a very talented gene pool! I think they have a bright future providing general critiquing services. Gibson, I know, practices his craft on a minute by minute basis; "this food is sub par you know I only accept peanut butter, I will only wear pants if they have snaps down the side like Steve Nash's, and Mommy - that shirt makes you look really old". He is very obviously a natural. Someone, please pay him for his opinions!

My kids loved Cars. I did not think it was the best but it was better than Brother Bear.

Mactastic Tanya Flava!
You are once again correct as usual, proving you alone are MACTASTIC. None other could support that name!

Josh: Is this kind of commentary you envisioned when you started your blog??
What happened? You can't blame it ALL on me.

Suede Peggy Flex, I think it has been Josh's lifelong dream that I should embrace my Mactastic-ness and finally be cool like you! I am sure he is thrilled for your blog commentary to be a conduit for that transformation!

Josh, the good news for you is that Summer School has started, and I AM working, so I will have far less free time to spend on pimp name generators and things of that nature.

Peggy, that is not good news. If I ever have time to post to my blog again, I simply have to demand you continue to comment. Your finding a pimp name for my wife is a gift I will cherrish forever.

Update on Dad

Quick post today. My Dad went to see his oncologist today after his latest CT scan. Because things looked good before, he has not had a scan in 3 months which seemed like a long time to be honest. Well, it is all good news. The doctor reports that there are no new spots or lesions and that the existing tumors are shrinking. My Dad will not have to increase his dosage of the drug he is taking which would bring with it new and unwelcomed side effects, so this was the best possible news. He will have another ct in 3 months. Over all, he continues to deal with some side effects from taking the drug, but they are relatively minor and in general, my Dad is doing quite well. Thank you to all who have been keeping him in your prayers. I know it has made a difference. God is good all the time.

Another Movie Review

I had big plans for another post today, but my actual job got in the way. Instead I posted a review for the movie I saw last night: "Thank You for Smoking." It's a good one and the full review is now posted on StumpTown Entertainment. Check it out. One other thought before I go. Tom Hanks' mullet in the Da Vinci Code got me thinking. If so many "rednecks" are wearing mullets these days, are they still rednecks? I mean doesn't that hair protect the back of the neck and keep it lilly white? I wonder what Descartes would say about this? Probably something like: "huh?"

Please Pray With Me.

Hello out there in blog land. I am sad to have to report today that we got some bad news regarding my father this week. If you read this blog or know my family, then you know that my Dad has been battling a rare form of aggressive cancer for several years. The first surgery removed a football sized tumor from his abdomen. In a matter of months the cancer returned, this time primarily in his liver. More surgery this past May killed the tumor in his liver. In early August of this year he had a CT which showed no new tumors or growth. The surgery was a success, he had finally recovered and then got a clean bill of health. It was a good month in that regard. Unfortunately, he began feeling discomfort in his liver a couple weeks ago. He went in for a CT this past Friday and then discovered this week what we had feared, but had not allowed ourselves to believe. The cancer had returned and was again in the form of tumors in the liver. In a month’s time one of the two new tumors was ...
