How can you justify going in to a federal building and opening fire?  It's plain suicide.  An act of terrorism.  Sick, sad, world. Guess we just have to pray more today.

No banana for stupid federal building gunner. 5 bananas for The Marshals that took him down.

Sledding and the beginning of 2010

We loaded up the truck with our 3 tired, grumpy, and overly unenthusiastic kids Saturday morning for a trip to Mt Baldy in hopes for sledding and a day of snow adventure.  Coming from Northern Arizona, I have to say, at this time of year, snow was pretty easy to find, and you didn't have to go in search of it, much less, drive to a resort to find it.  Those in my family know, I was blessed with the carsickness gene, so a loaded up my meclizine before the winding road trip, just to get up this mountain, which i have to add, is peaked with snow from the view in our yard in Upland.
So, to make a long story short, we drive up to the parking lot, where these young men in "sleeveless" vests, are macho pointing vecicles into their spots, which in itself has to be such a humiliting job, but to be directing cars full of folks who are trying to look up at mountains with no snow on them has to be even more humiliating.  So, we left the sleds and our large jackets in the truck, all opting for a light sweatshirt, to walk up to the lift and find out, well whyin the world would all the ski reports say Mt Baldy was open for a the day when obviously, where the hell is the snow???
To my amazement, they say you have to ride the lift, all the way up this mountain, pay for each kid, just to ride your sleds???? You have got to be kidding me....needless to say, we turned our kids around, gave Mt Baldy the bird, and took the kids to Tom's farms for Burgers and Candy.
Mt Baldy is overpriced and ridiculous, you may as well take the extra time and head up to Big Bear or Mt High.
We have NO Bananas for Mt Baldy.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2-$39.00

Overall, I liked this mich more the Modern Warfare, the turns in the plot were very unpredictable and kept me at the edge of my remote, and not wanting to leave the game.  It has much more to do during the game besides the standard jump and shoot or crouch and crawl, so you seem a lot more into the action.
Bringing the fight onto American soil was really different, it makes me just want to get out of that portion of the game quicker.
The airport scene, is very graphic, before you start the game, it gives you the option to pass a portion of the game.  This would be the area to pass, as it puts you in the position to infiltrate a terrorist cell and take over an airport, killing innocents.  So pass this before starting the game if you believe you will be offended.
Overall, I loved the Mordern Warfare 2 above all other Call of Duty games, the graphic and action sequences are much improved.
I would say definately buy this one.
5 bananas.
