Grateful. I am in a good place right now in my life. Not great but good. I get along with my family (important), I have a fun job that gives me, many friends at work, money to spend and, to a certain degree, peace of mind. I am very fortunate.

Although I consider myself an agnostic I like the sentiment of the following quote from the King James bible: Matthew 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye

Title: Charlatan - America's Most Dangerous Huckster, ...
Author: Pope Brock
Comment: ... The Man Who Pursued Him, and The Age of Flimflam. As genres I like history, true crime, and biography, to name a few. This book had all of these and more. This criminal who basically opened people up and threw goat testicles into them in order to cure a whole host of issues assisted in the creation of the American Medical Association, and greatly influenced televangelism, advertising and media of music.

Title: Let the Right One In
Comment: I saw that this Swedish vampire flick was being remade into an English one and it piqued my interest. A 12 yr old boy is unmercifully picked on at school. Fortunately/unfortunately a mysterious 12 year old girl moves in next door to his apartment and a relationship that will effect both their lives begins. This is a good vampire movie but be warned - this film has one image in particular that is pretty disturbing.

Show: Fringe
Comment: This and Lost are my two network shows that I watch. Both, I think, deal with parallel realities and redemption and I find these to be interesting concepts.
