barnson.org Half-baked opinions, served lukewarm.

So, unless you've been hiding under a facebooky rock, you know that my film (in that I wrote, directed, cut, scored, and financed it) NINJAS VS ZOMBIES is finally out on DVD. Yup.. you can get it on Netflix, buy it from walmart.com or bestbuy.com (or a host of other places - just go to www.nvzmovie.com and click the DVD), you can watch it on demand with AMAZON VOD (if you have TiVO I think that is part of the deal), you can see trailers on youtube, read reviews at aintitcool, order our comic book, and basically bathe in NVZ goodness all over the intertubes.

And please do.. cuz it really helps me a lot, even if you just put it in your queue.

So, I rarely post anything I heard at Church, but this is worth quoting.

True story:
A pastor went to a conference in the bible belt and when it was his turn to speak, he said: "40,000 people died of starvation today and you people don't give a shit". The conference drew in its collective breath and sat there slackjawed. He said: "I'll say it again, 40,000 people died of starvation today and you people don't give a shit.". There was rumbling in the crowd, and he looked at them, and pointed out what I think is the difference between happy, pretty, right-wing, Fox-News watching "Christianity" and the kind of Christianity I want to believe in.

He said, (and I paraphrase): "Which part of that sentence really bothered you?"

Haven't blogged in awhile, but I thought that mentioning this on Facebook was too public.

What the hell happened to common courtesy? Twice today I am chagrined by the lack of courtesy shown to me by folks.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.
Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.
Wow. Wow.

Its not a new dirty internet video, its a question.

My bro needs his windows system to run Unix from time to time. Seemed like this was the place to ask.

(Please state your answer in the form of a "dummy who isn't way smart like you guys")

Sometimes its untrue that no publicity is bad publicity, I think.

The animated STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS movie is a horrendous, unfunny, non-exciting, borefest that has very little redeeming value, except introducing us to spunky "Ashoka", Anakin's apprentice. And even then, you kind of hate her.

But this isn't about that.

Here it is.. "I like this ship! Exciting!!"
