Super Heros are more interesting

I can speak with athority on this subject...

First off, let me say I truly love people in general. I think, for the most part, people are good by nature and mean well. I will say however, that there are those that make me question this general concept. As many of you readers know I work in an industry where occasionally we get in the "upper crust" of society so to speak. I will say I have only met a couple of times some of these people who think they are better than any of us. It is a rarity. The ones that seem to treat the "lower class" poorly are the "wannabe richies." What I mean by this is the people who want to appear wealthier than they really are. I believe the word here is "pretentious." These are the ones who are just barely avoiding bankruptcy. Their homes are close to foreclosure, their fancy cars are always leased, never owned. There are items in their wardrobe that still have all the tags on them even after they have had the items in their closet for a long time. Even all of these things are "OK" with me, the problem I have is how they treat people. I think some honestly believe we are here to serve them. I don't mean this in my business setting only. I have seen it at restaurants, at movie theaters, grocery stores, hotels, and other places. I wonder if they are so upset with the "lies of richness" they live on a daily basis it just makes them miserable and they take it out on others. This is a shame. It is so nice when you meet someone who is so pure and truthful and not truly after something else.

May we all strive to treat people as good as we possibly can. "Kindness is always remembered, meanness is never forgotten."

Thanks for letting me rant!

GET SMART!

We just went and saw Get Smart last night with Tammy and Russ.  We loved it!  I haven't laughed out loud at a movie like that for quite a while.  Besides too many swear words, I would highly recommend it to ya' all.  "Missed it by that much!"

I went to Disneyland 2 days ago. I had so much fun. Toy Story Mania was open for a sneak peek review. That ride is a keeper!

WATCH YOUR STEP!

One of the people I work with had a close friend of theirs send these pictures to her after their Sunday afternoon hike.

These photos were taken in the foothills above Riverton.

I was A nice sunny day and all wanted to bask in the sun!

Say "hello" to my little friend.

Sweet Dreams!  I still have my feet pulled up off the floor.

Welcome to my site "Mikk Mermaid"

Due to recent activity on some email that we received for one of my daughters, we have deleted VICS WORLD and she will be a regular guest on Dads Blog.  Nothing too serious, but we didn't want to take any chances.  All you fellow bloggers can go ahead and delete VICS WORLD off of your links.  

Thank you,

Too bad we live in a crazy world!

Summer movies are finally here!

Finally,  the summer movie season is upon us!  We have all been biding our time, waiting

 for movies worth seeing to come to theaters again.  Well, the time is now here.  Starting with Iron Man, and this weekend Narnia:Prince Caspian, we now have some decent choices to spend our hard earned movie dollars on.  Indiana Jones 4 looks promising for May 22, (why release it on a Thursday?  Are they trying to cheat Memorial Day Weekend?)  Anyway, the summer movie season is off to a good start now.

Here is a list of promising movies for the rest of the Summer:

June 6

Kung Fu Panda (I laugh every time I see a teaser or a trailer, even though I don't want to.)

June 13

HULK (we'll see)

The Happening (New one from M. Night Shamalyananinan... you know the Sixth Sense guy)

June 20 

Get Smart (Steve Carell)

June 27

Wall-E (Disney)

July 2

Hancock (Will Smith, super hero gone bad then good again)

July 18th

The Dark Night (Batman, Christian Bale)

July 25th

X-Files: I want to believe 

August 1st

Mummy 4 

This is pretty much the end of the good summer movies.  The rest of August  looks like movies that are a waste of time.  Happy viewing!
