I HAVE BROADBAND

Hey everybody! I don't actually have broadband, but I do have DSL now, which makes it much easier and more pleasurable for me to go online when I am not at work. I am hoping that this will mean more posts for you. Aren't you happy? And then one day I am going to figure out how to put an mp3 file up on my sermon blog, because I have four of them recorded by now. One day. The main problem is probably that they're about 4 times as long as the average song, and therefore take a long time to upload. Any advice from my computer-savvy readers?

Anywho, I saw the Bourne Ultimatum yesterday afternoon. Loved it! It's one of those movies I might actually go see again in the theater, which I never do. (I think ET might have been the last time I did that, except of course for those times when you've seen the movie already but none of your friends have, so you figure you might as well go along).

I think if you've seen the other ones you'll already know this theme, but I really enjoy the idea of someone trying to fight a corrupted system (not just a single bad guy) from the inside. Which, when I write it here sounds cliche'd, but the movie lays it out with a sense of the ambiguities involved. One thing that's crazy to me is that it's rated PG-13, considering all the violence. It's definitely a movie for grown-ups. But actually, it's kind of nice not to have a bunch of swearing & sex get in the way of the story. One warning: they did the hand-held camera thing again, which can be a nice headache-inducer.

All right, that's my latest thoughts, for now.
