What Do You Want for Christmas? A Short Film

So its been snowing here for the past couple of days and the roads have gotten pretty bad. I have not been able to make it back home this Christmas Day and my bro and his lady have left for Mexico, so i'm home alone. With 5 NBA games on and some food I have been able to past the time pretty well. I came across this video and thought I'd post it for the holidays. Merry Christmas everybody.

Mo Takes a Hit!




I know its corny but I named my mac book "MO"...Mo the Mac ahah. Anyway Mo took a hit today, the base piece near edge of the left corner of the keyboard has started to chip off! I didn't drop MO or treat him with any physical harm at all. I've had Mo for quite some time, so I will look into repair options but it may come down to breaking off the damage area.

RENT



This past Friday, I attend the famous play/broadway production RENT. I have never seen or heard the story before, so this was an exciting experience for me. One thing that topped it off for me was my good friend Adam "action jackson" Hurtig was casted for one of the main roles. I've always known Adam as an athlete and not as a actor, I didn't even know he could sing! So it was going to be interesting to see him in the different light.

So there I am in the back of the theatre sitting beside my buddy Mike and we are both super giddy to see are boy sing his little heart out. Bam, lights out, spot light on stage on who else but "Action Jackson"! No time wasted, Adam starts to sing and moving around the stage all wirey like he is on the basketball court. ahaha Adam did such a great job, the part he got was a character named Roger Davis who is an inspiring film maker in the story. I was so entertained all night, it was a great show put on by everybody involved. Congratulations to Adam on pursuing something so amazing.

Here is a great clip of the cast singing the very popular Seasons Of Love one last time at the end of the show. enjoi
