How Do You Feel About Vigilante Justice? Do stories of vigilante justice peak your interest?

The Help:  Would you have the courage? The previews of "The Help" were spot on with delivering a message that is 5 stars and inspires the viewer to stand up for doing the right thing.  There were many lines in this film which are going to be quotable but the one that stood out to me was "Courage is not just about being brave it is about overcoming fear and daring to do what is right for your fellow man." Wednesday, August 10th, DreamWorks Studios released the 2hour and 17 minute Walt Disney Studios Motion Picture directed and written by Tate Taylor entitled "The Help."  This is a story based on the #1 New York Times Best Seller by Kathryn Stockett.  The heartwarming message depicts the travesty of social injustice in America during the 1960's in the authors home town of Jacksonville, Mi... 08/11/2011

Cowboys and Aliens, A Message For All Ages Harry Potter has nothing over Cowboys and Aliens with the imagination and surprises that make the viewer give the screen writers credit for creative content and almost two hours of excitement and intrigue.

Hanging out on Google+ Still wondering if google+ is somewhere you want to go?  There are so many social media venues it really is difficult to decide where to spend your time.  One thing you might want to consider is the fact that google is the 800 pound gorilla in the room so playing in their back yard and posting your links on their sites just could bring some extra juice to the SEO table.  Just some organic food/juice for thought!  I spent considerable time on the site this past week and find it very exciting.  I am talking to people globally and they are all willing to share and help since it is still in beta testing mode and we are all learning together.  As a hybrid between facebook and twitter I think you will find it fun and soon to be profitable there is an ease in sharing wit... 07/19/2011

End of an Era Today was an emotional day.  I received news of the loss of one of my most valued friends, Karen Nation. She was our real estate office manager for eight years.  She was my right hand in everything I did.  Organization was her real FIRST name.  She could always fix any equipment,  researched the manuals on anything, had a place for everything, thought about each detail in advance.  Karen always had a smile and always was kind.  She was a devoted mother, wife and grandmother. I could never have done what I did and had time for personal things if Karen had not been part of our team. In 2000 she moved to Wyoming to follow her husband's dream to be closer to fishing and away from the crowds.  I do believe that life is eternal and KNOW that her Love lives on.  It's just sad on ... 07/08/2011

Larry Crowne And The Foreclosure Message! Wednesday is date day for my husband and me.  We drive 30 miles from Williams, Arizona into Flagstaff to have lunch and a movie along with doing errands one can't do in a town of 3,000.  Today we saw Larry Crowne with Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts.  I had only seen the previews and thought it would be an "ok" movie as the previews did not really "move" me but it looked SWEET.  Forest Gump grown up on a reinvention quest is where my imagination was going. I was so wrong, this movie has so many messages and such subtle humor I took 5 pages of notes.
