here�s my excuse
I know that many wished to listen to my live radio show last thursday night. I also know that noone was able to listen in last thursday night unless they did it the old fashioned way, with a radio. The reasons for this are not fully known, but something went wrong with the server after we left the room it was in. I expected to be able to get the server back up and running from the studio computer. Unfortunately this was not the case, restrictions in effect on that computer prevented me from carrying out any remote administration. This issue should be resolved for this weeks show. I hope you all give it another shot this week.
Money is an interesting concept. Though my grade in economics class was far from wonderful I did in fact take economics. I thought I had learned about finances and the manageing of them, yet sometimes it takes a hard slap in the face by reality to make you realize the fluidic nature of money. Like so much skim milk, funds slip through my fingers and dribble down the drain of pointless purchases. Now I have to deal with my financial incompetence, and it isn�t pretty.
My budget for the week barely has enough room to allow me to attend the opening night of The Passion of the Christ. And I cannot wait to see this movie, my respect for Mel Gibson as an actor was once based upon movies like Braveheart, The Patriot, Signs, and yes, even Mad Max. Now I have a whole new level of respect for his own passion and commitment to what he believes in. Whether or not you agree with what he has done or what this movie tells, you must recognize the power of the commitment to his beliefs. Through all the TV appearances and interviews that I have seen with Mel Gibson I have been thoroughly impressed by his poise and strength of character when under fire from those who seek to halt his movie in it�s tracks.
This movie is going to be big, very big, I have heard many people around campus talking about it and discussing how soon they will be able to go see it. I personally am going with a group of over 30 people Wednesday night. I hope that many people get a chance to go watch this film, I expect a very powerful film.
P.S. Always preview before publishing a blog entry, that way you can catch obvious mistakes such as misspellings in the title. I dunno, I�m �tarded.
