TOPIC: Hunger, movie, and comics...

I'm feeling a little hungry this morning, even though I had my usual Fruit-Loop waffles with peanut butter on them (yum!)...makes me think about this weekend when the youth group that I lead will be doing the 30 Hour Famine...we will be going 30 hours without food while raising sponsors to help support starving kids around the world...right now we support the cutest kid ever from Uganda...we will be supporting him and one or two other kids for the whole next year with the money we raise...it's going to be a good time and an educational one for the kids and for all the leaders...I am very much looking forward to it...

Saw an interesting movie this weekend (actually Thursday): Lost in Translation...I don't know that Sofia Coppola deserves director of the year or that it deserves movie of the year, but it did intrigue me...it was a good picture of how people can get involved in extra-marital affairs...they find someone that they can connect with in a way that they can't with their spouse, and that's how it starts...the main characters didn't have sex with each other, but they had what I would call an emotional affair...it made me want to be even more cautious about my relationships with members of the opposite sex so that I don't fall into the same trap...

Best comic strip of all time: Calvin & Hobbes...Second best: Bloom County...Current best: Foxtrot or Zits...just my $.02 worth...
