Perhaps I'm getting "old" or maybe just a little more picky with my movie choices but after seeing every Indiana Jones movie available I was looking forward to enjoying this fourth in the series but for some reason I wasn't as enthralled with this particular movie - even though I certainly expected to be,  given the period in which it took place and the adventure it was s...

This is the second in the Indiana Jones adventures, and takes a slight departure from the other two films.  There are still exotic locales, artifacts to be found, and of course, women that need saving, but it has a different feel to it.  First off, instead of starting out in some cave, Temple of Doom opens in a Shanghai night club, but thankfully relocates quickly to the jungles of In...

Not only is this my favorite Indiana Jones film, it is one of my favorite movies of all time.  After the departure from normal with Temple of Doom, this adventure gets back to Indy's roots.  He is searching for artifacts, that belong in museums of course, and fighting Nazis.  Did I mention Sean Connery is in this movie?  What more could you want?  How about a quest ...

As everyone knows it can be very difficult to get children to read.  I was having the same problem with my daughter until one of her teachers introduced her to the Junie B. Jones book series written by Barbara Park.  My daughter instantly fell in love with the character and the stories and my husband and I often find ourselves laughing out loud while my daughter reads to us.The Junie ...

Why is Jones Soda in the Novelty Gift section? Because it makes a totally awesome novelty gift, that's why! For anyone who hasn't heard of this brand, it's a  pure cane sugar soda in a glass bottle. You can get normal flavors like Cream Soda or Root Bear, but Jones is most notably known for making less-conventional flavors like Fufu Berry or Strawberry Lime. (There are more fla...

Well my husband has once again bought a new suit for work.  This time he wanted to try a very famous and expensive brand, Jones New York, who also makes women's clothes.  He wanted a light colored suit but now a brown or tan so he went with a nice light gray in a Glen Plaid pattern.He actually knew basically what he wanted and happened across it on Ebay for a very low cost.  ...

By far Lego Indiana Jones: Origina Adventures is the funnest game I have played on the Playstation 3 to date. I found myself bashing my way through other lego enemies, and following the same plot that the first 3 original Indiana Jones movies have.  The graphics in the game are also quite stunning, but not quite as advanced as other PS3 games on the market. However although it may not be t...

My wife and I have recently decided to get a little more serious about our investment options and retirement as a whole. We may not be real old, but we are not real young anymore either. So, our first stop came to be at Edward Jones.Now Edward Jones is a financial advice institution, ranging in many services. But I would like to mostly talk to you about 401K/403B retirement plans that we have. ...

The 30 year anniversary of the Jonestown (Guyana) massacre was just recently. There was a lot of discussion about it.  I was quite young and living in Singapore at the time, so I had no knowledge about Jim Jones or the Peoples Temple.  The actual title of the book is "Raven, The Untold Story of Rev. Jim Jones and His People".This book is very well researched.  It was wr...

I came upon this book sort of by chance.  I was taking a graduate class and this was one of the required readings.  I was able to get a copy of the book used for only $7.00, but the original price for a new copy is $12.95.  The book can have immediate impacts and others that take a little time and willingness to implement but the tips are very practical and ones that anyone can...

I have this Fort Davis Jones in my backyard.  My daughter loves it.  She grew up with it. It has weathered the test of time.  She had this from the time she was 10 years old and still while she is in college goes out to set in it when she comes home.  It is as sturdy now as when it was first put in. I have just kept up with the suggested staining every other year.  It s...

I have always loved cook books, even though I am not much of a cook. My Mother gave me some of hers that I will cherish forever, simply because they were hers. I can still see her looking through it as she tried out new recipes for us to sample.I was thrilled when she called me earlier this year, asking me to come over. She had ordered this cook book through the mail, it is Homestyle Cooking Ma...

Since I was old enough to understand, sports have always been a part of my life. No, I'm not even remotely an athlete. I am a fan. My main interests are baseball, football and college basketball.Like other fans, I have favorite teams and I enjoy sharing my enthusiasm with others. I collect sports items related to my favorite teams and players and my closet is filled with more team t-shirts ...

Unless you have a job that requires wearing a suit everyday, how often do you actually wear a suit?? Well, I was in the process of going to some job interviews a couple months ago. I decided I needed a new suit for these.After all, I wanted to look like I was in style, and the older suits I had, you could tell were an older style.I started to look online to get some tips, and see the styles. I ...

This is a fantastic medium sized Lego set for the Lego fan in your family. The Indiana Jones and the Lost Tomb set #7621 is still a little hard to find in the stores, so I purchased ours through Lego.com.It contains 277 pieces, which is a great size...enough blocks to keep you busy for an hour or so to put it together, but not one of the HUGE sets that drive you crazy with a 1000 pieces to try ...

Indiana Jones and The Crystal Skull....Having seen the Indiana Jones movies, from 1-4 now, I have to say that with all the hype for this film I was not overly thrilled with the film.Yes, this is Harrison Ford reprising his role for Indiana Jones, but this is not your old INDI, this is an OLDER version of INDI....I expected the age, but I expected more of the OLD Indiana thrill ride, the witty b...

When anyone thinks about Indiana Jones, you see Harrison Ford running through jungles, finding ancient treasures, and just getting himself into trouble. Well, Lego Indiana Jones was not all it could have been. I have all of the Indiana Jones movies, including the fourth one, and was really excited about the new game. Of coarse I knew it was going to be like the Star Wars Lego games, but that on...
