    I almost titled this post: Barack, the baby killer?

I don’t usually post about politics much here, probably because I’m not much of a political person.  But…

    Just got back from a sneak preview of The Forbidden Kingdom that opens this Friday, along with Expelled. Don’t worry, no spoilers here because I don’t really like to write. I’m just embarrassed every time Jet Li speaks in English. I think filmmakers make the effort to minimize his lines. But boy, he does move…

    Look what I get to take for the next 8 days. My left arm also hurts from my 2nd and final Hep A shot. The people at the travel clinic also asked if I wanted pills just in case I get traveler’s diarrhea. Yeah, whatever. My cantonese stomach can handle anything. On a side note,…

    …but not too busy for a picture! Yes, another picture of Mackenzie. I fiddled with sepia toning on Gimp. The original had a lot of vibrant colors, but I think it was too much. My eyes didn’t know where to look. This one seems better, where it really draws your attention to her eyes.  Her…
