Hmmm

Well kids, I must thank Xboy for the interest he has generated. I've invited him to continue his story, and am waiting for a response. I will probably get it sometime today, though I am not sure when. I watched Grizzly Man tonight - very interesting doc about a man, Timothy Treadwell, who spent his life living with bears in a remote part of Alaska. Eventually, and I am not ruining the ending, he is killed by a bear, as is his girlfriend. He thought he was there to protect them, and often lived by himself for months at a time. The ending is ironic and touching. Park rangers move in to kill the "man-eating" bear, who, without Treadwell's intervention, would have lived a longer life. Anyhow, I'd recommend watching it. At the very least, you'll be entertained. At most it will, as the director so modestly puts it, illuminate the deepest recesses of the human spirit.

And to Jetboy, should you ever try to steal a contributor to my blog again, I shall declare another war of words, and this time I'm bringing the heavy artillery.

cheers :)

That was a messed up movie I must say. Was very very interesting yet at the same time probably scored a 10 on the unintentional comedy scale (Thank-you Bill Simmons AKA The Sports Guy. He can be found on ESPN's Page 2, and is an absolute genius).

It really was interesting to see this guys personality change from when he first started filming to his death. All in all though the guy was an absolute nut case. Although his parents and "friends" were not much better, so maybe that explains some of it.

SAJ,

You're allowed to post brief comments, but if you're going to start publishing your views and opinions, better start your own blog, for much like you are not interested in what Jetboy has to say, I am not interested in anything you have to say. And why is Jetboy perennially defamed in this blog anyway - he's a good kid.

That was a little harsh. And since this is not your blog you have no right to dictate the brevity or length of comments left. Thank you!

Thanks Marti.

Once again a slandererous comment made, but no one to own up to it. At least have the balls to name yourself.

To anonymous I am pretty sure that you have the choice to read or not to read comments that you deem too lengthy or posted by me. Just like I have the choice to read or not to read Jetboy's blog.

Besides why even bother coming to this commentary section if you do not want to read the opinion's others have on TOPICS MARTO HIMSELF has written about. I believe it would be different if I was posting random remarks that were not connected with his posts. In that case then yes I would need my own blog.

And just to drag this on a little bit more for your benefit. Yes Jetboy is a good kid, and I believe all this jabbing back and forth is playful banter that is not meant to offend or upset anyone.

My apologies to everyone else that had to suffer through my ramblings.
