Jim’s youngest son, Zach Gibson, graduated from Air Force Basic Training in San Antonio. He’s on his way to more training to be a forward combat air traffic controller with the Air Force Special Forces. I wasn’t able to make the graduation but Jim was there.
I just got back from a polo clinic in Bozeman, which was a ton of fun! My horse, Ezra, wasn’t so sure about that ball flying at him and horses galloping everywhere, but he got the hang of it by the end.…

I just got back from seeing The Matrix Revolutions. I did not write up The Matrix Reloaded when it cam out so I guess I can talk about both movies. No such review would be complete without referring to the original movie.…

This movie had a lot of promise. The case looked good. The special effects are excellent. The story broke down for me when the movie failed to follow its own movie logic. The movie is about a war between Vampires and Warewolves.…

I saw this last week and was very impressed. The storyline was not what I expected, but every bit of a big budget picture. I was not disappointed at all. I was anticipating a cookie-cutter story, but was very entertained by the realistic approach.…

I saw T3 last night at the sneak preview. It opens today. I have not read any other reviews. I really enjoyed this movie. It was true to both the spirit and the story of the first two movies. And the action was first rate Arnold.…

I went to see this movie as a favor to a friend. I was not too keen on enduring the excessive computer graphics, but was actually impressed with the quality. Aside from providing the much needed background as to who the hulk is or how he became the hulk (for those of us who may not know), the movie was well done.…

Well I’ve spent the last couple of days at my mom”s aunt and uncle’s home in Twin Falls and finally got regular access to a computer, and a scanner! So I’ve added a picture or two of me below.
Anyhoo, I’ve been having a blast working at this dude ranch in Ovando, Montana.…

This movie was excellent! Not only was it Jim Carrey at his usual best (good comedy, and a little bit of his serious side), but Morgan Freeman does a great job in the role of God. Plus, this movie contains several very good messages!…

Well I have spent the past week at a guest ranch in Ovando, MT working as a wrangler. We’re about 45 minutes north east of Missoula, which is where I go to school. I’ve have so many experiences over just the past couple of days that I thought maybe you all would like to hear about them.…

This is clearly an attempt to create a new action/spy thriller franchise starring Vin Diesel. The sequel is already in production.
The opening scene sets the tone. You have a 007-like character trying to infiltrate a European rave. He stands out like a sore thumb in his tux and gets killed.…
