Ever get that feeling deep inside, that your about to unleash a masive cult on an unexpecting world?
No?
Must be just me then, oh well....
Now, seriously all joking aside, my friends and I may have just struck creative gold, I mean we really got a good one here. And we'll be using this summer to iron out all the kinks and make it into a smooth running ring of religious bull shit.
And though I don't know what all the details are, or when or how this will take place I can asure you there will be stickers...
Lots and lots of stickers...
Honestly, I have to have something to do inbetween working, writing and of course watching Pirates 2.
It's creative and a challenge, something keep my nice and sane.

X3
Oh and by the way, as far as X-Men 3... The movie I waited like what, 5 hours for in line... the movie I have been waiting to see since I heard Ben Foster was playing Angel, the movie I have wanted to see since I saw him, as Angel in the top left hand corner of all the posters...
I really don't want to talk about it, check back on that subject in a few months or so...
*sighs heavy*
Maybe 5 or 6 months....

Ok, I have seen the movie twice.. and read the book once...
And just for fun I have even scanned through some of the 'response' books if you will, one in particular being... "A quest For Answers - The Da Vinci Code" by Josh McDowell.... haven't heard of it? Well I'm sure you can stop by almost any local church and they'll probably be more then happy to point you in it's direction. The purpose of this lil' book is to help separate the facts of the Da Vinci Code, from the fiction... Personally I think the book it's self handles that well enough, more so if you buy one of the hard back version with all the lovely little notes, but hey as humans we love a good deal, so for most of us if we own a copy of the Da Vinci code, it's probably the $5 paperback copy... but moving on... If the churches and Christian leaders want to publish these little books to help inform the masses, more power to them, I see no real hard in the concept... what I do find to be just a little off with these pass around tell alls, are the fact that like the one stated above, most are presenting their points in a fictional format!
I don't know about the rest of you, but this is really starting to give me a headache!
I can't say I agree with the ideas that are being tossed about in the controversy, but I will say for the most part I can go way, way out on that tiny limb and understand where exactly every one is coming from on the mater. Personally, if I were to be offended by any of it, I would find the book a bit more offensive then the movie, I mean I have to say, Ron Howard and his crew covered their asses well. Honestly at the end of it all, when push comes to shove on this argument, I think no one is going to get anywhere any time soon until we pull out of the Fiction Formats and take a walk of the wild sides of Fact and History. - I think it could be fun.
Can't wait to see what happens when a book & movie are made about the lesser known grail legend, involving John The Baptist head, morbid, maccob, yet intriguing.
If nothing else, the cinematogrophy is excellent, 2 thumbs way way up! Sophie isn't a red head, hell the only red head in the movie is Marry and that it's self is still only in the painting, and I hate to say it, but for the first time since.. well possibly the first time ever I actually find Tom Hanks attractive, though I credit most of the attraction too the smooth lighting, subtle shadows and of course the character of Robert Langdon is practically a dream guy in my book, but hey I'm one strange cat at the end of the day. . . still meow.

The world is really starting to piss me off
Ok, so I'm going to see the DaVinci Code tomorrow, so I guess this might become a two parter, I hope nothing of what I am about to do/say is too stupid...
Ok, so I am a Christian, and somewhere between the Passion of The Christ and I guess the start of this book becoming a movie, I kind of feel I'm making the transition to becoming a more defined sort of person/soul by trying out the life and ideals of the Nostics, it really fits the person I've always been when it comes my personal faith and belief's. But anyways, back to the as why, is really because Christians, and there teachers or leaders or front men so to speak are pissing me off.
The way I see it, is you can know the bible from cover to cover and it'll mean the world to you and to your god and that's about it. More so in today's society. In the world to day it seems facts and history mean more then anything else any more, so unless your a archeologist, Astronomer, or explorer or whatever who's devoting their lives and careers to the search of truth and justification, the least you could do is learn the history of the book it's self. Honestly in my own beliefs, I feel the Bible is all that really is to be concerned with, everything from how to win a battle, to how to secure a spot for yourself eternally is with in it's pages - It's a pretty nifty study guide, but I in no way believe it's in tact, hell history, and what the world has uncovered over the past 50 years or more has proven that. So instead of having theses long drawn out sermians on what is so wrong with the DaVinci Code and the ideals it places before the world ( keep in mind it's fiction, if it helps you sleep at night) maybe that energy would be better served in lessons of The Bibles origins, if your willing to take the bible as this magical booked dropped upon the earth, then honestly your no better then the Roman Catholics of old. In which case why bother with a Protestant church to begin with ?
The bottom line is, if you are so shallow in your beliefs that the idea that Jesus was married and spawned children, is enough to send your life into a frenzy, then this book or any other should be the least of your worries. And if you still cling to the idea that Marry Magdalene was a whore, then you might want to add some refresher bible courses along with some history courses to your list of things to do this summer.
God gave your free will and fredom of mind, try not to insult God, by making a total waist of such a fine gift.

Refer to my last post as to why I haven't been around. I thought things would get easier, silliest me.
I'm sure they will grow easier after the move... If I play my cards right... gotta tell ya, I am such a bad gambler.
So, the best way to get a hold of me, yes I'm a sell out.... is on my space, my e-mail is Sterben_84@hotmail.com and my handle on my space ( I think) is PhirePhyler.. I don't know, I feel like an alien, kind of like it, keeps me real. Don't get me wrong, I'm still keeping this up here... actually This tiny corner of the infinite universe should get more interesting. If My Space serves me socially, this can become an out let for everything else.
I plan to post a few thoughts I have on the Religious worlds current position and the truly Dumbasses that some of our top religious leaders are making of themselves... and if there's time some rants on the Future of the US's political powers... so get ready to find out where and how well I'm acquainted with the world around me, try not to point and laugh to hard, after all I'm only just now finally getting back in the game - once I warm up, things should get interesting, if not down right entertaining.
Lucky Ya'll
Untill then: this is me giving in and doing what I can with what I am handed

WOW....
So this is why I haven't been online much: I'm beginning to think my sister has planed her daily routine just to piss me off, online all day, sleeps mostly when I'm at work or when I am asleep myself.
BUT WAIT There's more: We sold the house, and bought a house... it's in Henderson which sucks, but it's on 3 freakin acres, and is covered in fruit trees almost enough to call it an orchard, and I think my uncle is going to start a nursery out there, so his grape vines will have time to grow into lean mean wine making machines while he waits to buy his own property eastwardway. Which means when I wake up in my own room, and after spending hours in my private study, I can stroll through my own personal door out on to the family deck to watch the sun set over the land, over the trees, over the baby vineyard, over the pond, located on the neighbor's property, and then gaze up at the stars while sipping wine or my cosmopolitan while pondering the mysteries of the universe.... Wait did I mention I have my own Study! My own room to create, it's something I have wanted since I first put the pen to paper... it's a trade off, see I move out to the middle of no-where and I in return get my study.
AND EVEN MORE: I saw the movie BENCHWARMERS... but as good as the movie was, and believe me it was, the extended preview for X-Men 3 was even better... So for all my complaints about there being no Gambit and for all my issues with the character relations being as they were is the first two movies being yanked through a meat grinder, all that is forgotten and forgiven, because I applaud the writers and the man or woman who pulled the cast together (accept for Kitty Pryde's actor, what were you thinking?!?) because if that trailor was anything like the movie, it shows that these writers know or know of the stories that have littered their way over the X-Men universe! Some like the inspiration for the movies Phoenix are huge story lines that are still being referenced and bought up like crazy, others are more illusive and harder to pin point and should have probably been forgotten, but hey they are there! And it's better for the movie to be about the crap the comics came up with then whatever the director has pulled out the almost blue sky.... hell in the end, who am I kidding, It's Hough Jackman and Ben Foster (of who I am a long, long long time... I'm talking Fast Forward fan of) together on one giant screen... hell it's Ben Foster on screen in an X-Men movie, I could just faint right here... now if Jewell could just get work again.
I have less then a month left in katy, and though my trips back to Houston will be frequent ( I mean have you seen all the movies coming out this year??) My time left seems so short.
BTW I'll work on the back ground color more next week...
