Well, it has been a while since my past post. Too long really. At the moment, I am off work, a two week holiday. Though I have been temping during that! Have spent time with the kids, and also watching films. My wife and I took my daughter to watch Up last week and today, we watched Twilight - New Moon. An interesting film which tells me more about how I have changed the way I watch films now that I am a father. I have been spending the odd moment posting on Yahoo Answers again and while researching one answer, I found a post somewhere else that was copied and pasted from one of my answers! Which was flattering really.
Anyway, Up, good film. Love it. The first film we took our daughter to. And my review will tell all. The same with Twilight - New Moon. Have to read the books. Well, I will try the first one and see what comes of that. I might watch the first film. Might. Went out with my wife to Smiths before watching the film as our kids were at nursery. Watching the film was interesting. Since being a parent, our perspectives on films and television has changed. Where as we would identify with the younger before, now it is the parents we look at. But I will post more on the film review site.
I have nearly finished reading Voyage of the Dawn Treader to my daughter, and my son spends every day trying to get me to love him more. As if that were possible. He is learning to talk, and is trying to say things. Often with his thumb in his mouth. I am waiting for him to get a security blanket next. And although he loves me lots, he still tries to attack me at times as he seeks to be Alpha male.
Anyway, I hope you like the joke...
A minister told his congregation, "Next week I plan to preach about the sin of lying. To help you understand my sermon, I want you all to read Mark 17."
The following Sunday, as he prepared to deliver his sermon, the minister asked for a show of hands. He wanted to know how many had read Mark 17. Every hand went up. The minister smiled and said, "Mark has only sixteen chapters. I will now proceed with my sermon on the sin of lying."
