I just came from seeing a wonderful documentary called King of Kong. It’s about classic video game players, but so much more. Good guys, bad guys, drama, suspense. You’ll probably on see it at art movie theaters, but if you can find it, go see it. Should be eligible for an academy award in the documentary category.

One of my favorite blogs is Knock-Knock, but the blog seems to have disappeared. The last blog PeaceChick Mary wrote on Aug. 20, talked about emergency room visits. I hope she’s okay.

We’ve been granted a couple of gorgeous, 70s degrees days in the middle of August. Think I’ll take advantage of it and go for a nice walk. Maybe it’ll shake my brains and give an idea of what to write about.

I saw Bourne Ultimatum this past weekend. I hate to go against the grain, but I was disappointed. I like Matt Damon, but this flick did not show off his acting talents, in my opinion. Lots of blurred action and car chases but just a little too much for my tastes. The first two movies were better.

I find that the reason I don’t post is not because I have nothing to say, but rather I am staying away from the computer. I am not only not blogging, I’m not doing anything with the computer. No pictures, no writing, no finances… nothing. This should be a good sign because it would seem to indicate that I have a life, but it ignores the fact that using the computer is part of my life.
I recently purchased a book on speed reading because I have always felt my reading to be slower than most. My comprehension of reading material has always been very good, but slow in my opinion. It’s pretty interesting so far. It’s The Evelyn Wood Seven-Day Speed Reading and Learning Program. I got it on sale at Barnes & Noble.
So, I don’t have an excuse for not writing in the blog other than being away from the computer.

Been wondering about what to write and realized that there is a lot I’m not talking about.
I started the process of putting my name on another list for kidney transplant. This second place is in New Jersey - Hackensack. I thought I had to start from the beginning, but my 5 year wait on the present list is carried over to the Hackensack list… nice. For some reason, I feel more comfortable with the Jersey bureaucracy than the New York one… no reason, just attitude.
I’ll get into it more later. Just chipping ice at this point.
