This past weeks season finale of LOST is being called the best episode yet for the 5 season long show. Looking back at, I can't argue that it wasn't. One ritual I have each week is checking out the best LOST fan site in the world, darkufo, and reading the commentray recap from a guy known only as Vozzek69. His reviews are always well thought out, full of wit, and dead-on target. His recap of the finale was one of his best so I thought I'd pass it on. Here is the LOST season 5 finale in his words... Things I Noticed - The Incident by Vozzek69 Posted by DarkUFO Last night when my head hit the pillow I realized something: The best season of LOST had just ended with the best episode ever. My opinion of course, but it was also my pillow. Way too many things to talk about, so no clever intro. Things I Noticed: What Lies in the Shadow of the Statue? Red Snapper Nothing could be cooler than opening the finale with this amazing scene. Delivering Jacob two minutes into the finale was...

It seems like forever since I've blogged anything of importance. (Some would argue I never have) Not that I haven't had lots to blog about, I've just been so busy I just haven't had the time. I'll try now to fill in the gaps in the life of this Jesusgreek... Golf So I was pretty bummed last month when I got to go to the Masters practice round and never got to see Tiger. My lack of a Tiger sighting only fueled my desire to see the greatest golfer ever at some point in my life. I decided to keep a close eye on the Quail Hollow Championship that was to be played in Charlotte to see if Tiger would enter. He waited until the last possible minute to commit but once he did I grab up a couple of Thursday first round tickets and pastor Mike and I headed down. Tiger tee'd off at 7:40am and we arrived at 7:30am. Our strategy was simple: let the thousands that were following him in his gallery go from hole to hole while we skipped ahead and waited. This worked to perfection...

I love April. When it comes to sports, there is not a better month during the entire year. The NBA and NHL playoffs begin. Golf has the masters. The NFL has the draft. And of course there's the start of baseball season. Baseball has always been my favorite sport. I've never been any good at it but I love to watch it. Growing up I collected years and years worth of baseball cards, which I still have boxed up in my old room at my parents home. When it comes to following the game, the Atlanta Braves will always be my favorite team and Bo Jackson will always be my favorite all-time player. As a teenager my walls were lined with Bo Jackson posters. As my son is now watching a little bit of sports with me (his favorite "player" is Tiger Woods) I wish he could have experienced the phenomenon that was Bo Jackson. I ran across the following article that describes Bo better then I ever could: Between the Seams Recalling Bo Jackson's days in baseball Twenty years after his r...

Beth and I quietly put our house on the market a couple of months ago just to see what would happen. We like were we are currently living but we would love to be closer to town which would put us closer to church, the Y, shopping, and our friends. (In that order - HA) With the housing market like it is (or at least what we're being told by the media and government) we thought it would take a while to sell. Wrong. We signed the papers last week and as of July we'll be homeless. We have no idea where we might move. The good thing is the couple buying our home doesn't want to close until July so that buys us a few more months of looking. I also threw the idea out to Beth that if we were ever going to make a major move then now is the time. Our house is sold, we're debt free, the kids haven't started school yet and we've always talked about making a big move to another state (or country) I've come up with a list of place we could move based on places we've b...
