Enjoying a nice slow start to the morning after a late night movie session. A couple of friends came over last night after church to watch a movie I had rented called "My Name is Khan." I had not given much thought when I rented it but it sounded interesting enough and it was for the first 1 1/2 hours and then it degenerated into the dumbest most contrived movie ever. I have never watched a movie that started out so well and then just fell apart. It had an obvious agenda about anti Muslim attitudes in America after 9/11 and made Americans appear like obvious idiots where as I believe we are much more subtle in our idiocy. Thankfully in the comfort of my own home I could offer a bold running commentary to relieve my angst. I would say that the acting was excellent they were just at the mercy of a bad script.
Tonight I am celebrating my birthday a week late but much better rested than last week. We start our Saturday night services back up tonight which doesn't thrill me but I will only work it until first of Sept when all the teachers get back into gear.
So that is all for now!

Have you watched Amreeka? Great film! Very well done...about a Palestinian family who immigrates to America post 9/11.
