Movies that rocked, literally, the top 5 Comments Off

I’m a sucker for rock movies -> I like movies and I like music => I like movies with good music in them.
Here is my top 5 movies that have something to do with rock, more or less, that I really dig.

1. The School of Rock
2. Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny
3. The Boat That Rocked
4. Detroit Rock City
5. High Fidelity

You can probably tell by the first two that I’m a Jack Black fan. The School of Rock is nr. 1 on my list because of the energy Jack shows thought the whole movie.
So here is one of Jack’s songs

And also the video for it.

What’s are your favorite movies that rock?

Lessons learned from Star Trek Comments Off

I’ve always marveled how cool are some of the decisions captain Picard makes. He is like a walking leadership course. But that’s not all about Star Trek that’s cool. Leaving aside the cool replicators and holodecks and warp speed space ships and the “Engage” and “Make it so” and Data’s cat, I always find something cool in Star Trek.

A few episodes ago it was a phrase that Diana’s mother told Diana that was the cool thing. Now, Councilor Troy is the one person I would not save when something is about to blow up, if I was Cpt. Picard, she’s annoying, but I didn’t know why she irritated me so much. And then her mother illuminated me. This is what she said

“Diana, I love you, but you make everything sound like an epitaph”

How true is that! That’s one of the reasons she annoys me. And then it downed at me yet again. There are people like that that annoy me in real life. Don’t you hate those people who always rain on your parade? I do.

Please stop people, it isn’t funny. We are not all going to die. Cpt. Picard is going to save us, you know that. Now where is that reset button…
