See "The Book of Eli"



I've been trying to watch more movies lately. A few weeks ago I started seeing previews for "The Book of Eli". It seemed enigmatic, somewhat religious though probably a cooked and odd twist of some sort of Mormon type religion. It looked like a mindless, post-apocalyptic, Denzel-shred-everything, dud. Still, I wanted to see it for the 'Denzel-shred-everything' kick. I got a group of guys to go with me last night.

I was delightfully surprised! Though it isn't the best movie of the year and there are inconsolable impossibilities, I was surprised by the relevant and wholesome message. Though I wouldn't go with children because it can get a little violent, I definitely endorse and encourage viewing of the film. You'll be happily surprised too!

Heading to Jersey

Tomorrow I'm headed back to my little home in South Orange. The long period away from campus has been fruitful and exciting. All the time I was able to spend with my supporters is always to be cherished. While at home I've been working hard planning for the spring, planning the trip to Ghana, and resting (only a little:).

I must say that I am very excited to finally be headed back to Jersey to stay--though by Friday morning I'll be on the road again. This time to the March for Life in DC. I'm happy for this opportunity to stand among those campaigning for revolution in our country's ideology toward the unborn.
