Back to Minot
Well, my leave is over and it’s time for me to fly out to Minot. I’ll be leaving in the morning around 6:15 or so from my house when Steve picks me up…then my flight leaves Bangor at 8:30am. If all goes well, I should be in Minot at 3:50 local Minot time (one hour behind Maine).
Jeff, Jeremy and I went to Portland today/tonight for our traditional road trip there. We had fun. We spent a few hours at the Mall, and then we went to Friendly’s to eat. We also stopped into Guitar Center – and I fell in love with that store! They sell so much dj equipment it’s unreal. I even gave Jeff and Jeremy a bit of a show on a mixer they had set up there on display, lol. And then, we did something else…**Charlie**…was amazing
– Don’t Ask -
Annnyway…I’m gonna go make something to eat. It’s almost 11pm and I’m not too tired yet. I’ll sleep on the flights tomorrow I’m sure.
My trip back home was great, considering the circumstances…but nothing beats time with good, close friends. That alone made this so much better than it could have turned out.
That’s it! I’ll post tomorrow night to let everyone know how the flights were!
Quantum of Solace
This movie was simply amazing. Front the start of the movie, right up until the end, it was non-stop action. A lot of the things the Bond movies are famous for don’t appear in this film, however. There is no Moneypenney, no ‘Q”….and the normal opening gunshot sequence doesn’t appear until the end of the movie. There’s nothing much I can say without giving it away…but it opened this weekend with over $70 million…shattering it’s own record!
