argh!

i don’t like the way diane sawyer does interviews. i just finished watching the interview between her and mel gibson and i’m fed up. i really try to not be one of those people who just assume something is great because the name of CHRIST is attached to it. i personally think that allot of junk has been sold using CHRIST’s name and personally i think this is offensive. with this said in my opinion diane sawyer put everything in as negative light as possible while throwing slow softball pitches to anyone who disagreed with gibson. i’m okay with her trashing gibson. i’m okay with her having questions about the gospels. i’m okay with her questioning how the gospels have been interpreted. i believe in a GOD who can handle our questions and WHO is not afraid of tackling though debates.

BUT

all i ask is that anybody doing this as a supposed “unbiased” newsperson do it consistently and ask the same rough questions of both sides and phrases your statements as close to even as possible. rather, than making everything seem as though one side is right and the other just stupid. i was truly offended when she started making statements like “CHRISTians believe … while historians believe …” like there are no intelligent CHRISTians. i don’t believe that i am one of those people who thinks every statement is against CHRISTians but sawyer’s statements really got under my skin.

most extreme elimination challenge

i love my job!

i know that i say this about every 5th entry but it really is true. my job is the greatest because while i’m doing something very important and meaningful i get to include really cool things within it and have alot of fun while doing it. i’ve been working on a swish movie (shockwave) for wednesday and i decided to included within the movie the theme some from the “spiketv” show “mxc” (most extreme elimination challenge). i love this show. i usually turned the volume down on the television, because the commentary is not always that great but the program is hilarious. me and the boys watch the contestants kill themselves and laugh. for some reason it is great to watch strangers put themselves through near fatal challenges.

i had to cook tonight. pam and adam went to the movies so i was left making supper. i cooked chicken divan from a receipt. it was an extremely scary adventure. men were not meant to cook in your normal household kitchen. a man’s cooking talents go beyond the size of the normal kitchen. this is why we either cook outside on the grill where our talents can freely expand throughout the universe or use a professional kitchen which has enough room to at least withstand our skills until we can take them outside and cook over a fire again. i was at least able to hold my talents in a enough to make the divan. it was touchy there for a little while but i kept those talents in.
