**In one of Rich Mullins’ songs he’s praying and he says to God, “I’d rather fight you for things that I don’t really want than take what you give that I need.”
Guilty as charged.**
...
Well if you’re going to say that, I’m going to say this:
“There never seems to be enough time to do the things that you want to do — once you find them.”
...
I was thinking about using it for a tagline, but I’m still stuck on the one I’m using.

"So, is it safe to vent about Jurassic World here?" It is with me. I thought it was criminally stupidly stupid.
But maybe that's just me and the way I look at things. I liked the scenery, but the sensery was very off-putting.

The late, beloved Sionnsar used to write with invisible ink. I had no idea that could be done!
Not having seen the movie, I can only say, “I will wait for that to happen and then laugh!” Thanks!

Well, now...three movies later...am I going to like the stupidity and/or the inanity? Or will I wish I had never bought the doggone DVD?

It’s called making a dumb animal entirely too smart.
Hollywood does it all the time, ever since Jaws. You’re not supposed to notice.
But trying to appeal to scientists in the movie audience won’t pay their bills.

Oh dang...and here I thought movie genetics had morphed into something awesome. OK...back to the Toy Story series and Finding Nemo...

"... and here I thought movie genetics had morphed into something awesome." Movie geneticists do things that Drs. Moreau and Frankenstein could only dream of doing.
For the most part, I find the science of their genetics equivalent to my suggestion that the gene for Luciferase, the lightning bug capability, be added to the Tobacco plant, so that cigarette products could be developed that would light themselves.

No, it doesn’t make any sense at all. If people did sensible things, most movie plots would be short and boring.

It’s a crime to have a nose so pink and not be able to give it a boop.

Kitty is wrapped up like a purrito. I hope she’s not sick.

I don’t think he’s sick: just sleeping because he’s so little.

32 degrees.
I have to go to Walmart. Or maybe I can wait until tomorrow...I don’t want to go out in the cold. I’m going to make some hot cider, instead.

Maybe people will overlook your sleeping all day when you’re that small!

We went to Walmart before supper yesterday but are short of some things again. Already. Always.
James has a dentist appointment today. Maybe I can avoid Walmart by picking up a few things at Harris Teeter. They cost a little more, but we get an employee discount on the house brands.

BTW: Since they made a new super-scary dinosaur and it’s a female they should have named it Hillary.
Just sayin’.
Or even scarier - Hillary 2016.
