What this 14-year-old boy did for his 7-year-old brother with Cerebral Palsy is really inspiring. I get tired of hearing about all the wrong things kids are doing these days. When a kid does something so self-sacrificing and loving toward his brother, we should take note and make a big deal of it. He isn’tContinue reading “Hunter and Braden and Cerebral Palsy”

The Hobbit and Smaug
The Desolation of Smaug, Part 2 in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy, gives us more of the same with a really cool dragon added in to keep us watching for the full 161 minutes. There were so many pointless plot threads added to this movie (I presume to make it long enough to be a trilogy)Continue reading “The Hobbit and Smaug”
PRINCE, no more Profanity
Prince is no longer using profanity in his music. In the June edition of Essence magazine he said, “Did you ever hear Muhammad Ali curse? Would you curse in front of your kids? To your mother? Marsha (Ambrosius), Lianne (La Havas), Janelle (Monae), they’re all my sisters. We shouldn’t curse at them. We need to treat allContinue reading “PRINCE, no more Profanity”

Amazing Spider-Man 2
The summer of 2014 has officially begun with the opening of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, in theaters everywhere this weekend. I’ve read many reviews on it and it looks like I’m going to have to give it two different grades. In the area of morality and appropriateness for younger audiences, I’m giving it a definiteContinue reading “Amazing Spider-Man 2”
