The Nightmare before Christmas Holiday

This is one of my favorite rides at Disneyland. I never cared much for the movie until the ride re-introduced me years ago...


"Twas a long time ago, longer now than it seems in a place perhaps you've seen in your dreams. For the story you're about to be told began with the holiday worlds of auld. Now you've probably wondered where holidays come from. If you haven't I'd say it's time you begun."
- Santa (from Nightmare Before Christmas)

Happy Halloween

Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin is an annual tradition to watch on ABC. When I saw the quote below, I had to laugh....

"Charlie Brown is the one person I identify with. C.B. is such a loser. He wasn't even the star of his own Halloween special."

TGIF!

"Weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless. ~Bill Watterson"

Fridays are always a great day (except traffic wise)...but this Friday is an especially great day, having kicked off a three day weekend in which we try to cram in every single possible summer memory that we forgot accomplish over the three month period or that we seek to remember. Make it a good one!!

Baseball Season

"Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer. ~Ted Williams"

If only such an average would be exceptional in life as well, then all would be well. One of the greatest things about summer is the traditional visit to the baseball stadiums. This year was no different. The introduction of Manny Ramirez to the Dodger family was a fun and loud one

The fierce side of the circus

"A cat is a tiger that is fed by hand. ~Proverb"


The elephants contrasted quite a bit to the tigers of the circus. Whereas the elephants were mellow and laid back, the tigers were regimented, fierce and I imagine a bit nerve racking if you're in the cage with them. The tigers took a lot more preparation, with the entire intermission devoted to setting up the cage with a handler at every corner just in case.
