Louisville Takes Second Place in The Big East and The Lost Tomb Airs on the Discovery Channel

I suppose for some of the readers of this blog the title headings may seem sequentially out of order - at least regarding their importance as to what really matters in "life". However, I imagine that some readers might actually feel that the sequencing is just fine and perhaps even appropriate. Actually, I did it that way deliberately, so as to maybe stir up a little discussion on the two topics.

So far, at least in my small circle of friends, the showing of The Lost Tomb hasn't generated much meaningful conversation. At least the conversations that I have had prior to the actual airing this Sunday were more "casual" in nature then anything else. No one's core beliefs about the essence of life has seemed to change. Now that it has aired, maybe that will change? But, maybe not? If topics dealing with science and religion are no longer of interest to most people, then what has replaced these topics that contribute so greatly to our very definition of "life"? As for me, just call me "old school" - because I remain insatiably interested in the topics of science, religion and, of course, politics - oh, and basketball as well. So if you happen to read this, let me know what you thought of "The Lost Tomb". I'd like to hear your opinions. Oh, and also about that last Louisville win too.

As for Louisville and it's achievements on the basketball court this year. Here is my spin. It should be of some major importance to "Kentuckians" since it keeps the state of Kentucky in the forefront when speculating as to which NCAA team might have the right stuff to win a championship (not that it matters in the larger scheme of things, right). But many of us know how much basketball means to my "home" state - and to me as well. It would be nearly impossible to grow up in Kentucky and to not have some opinion about basketball. I guess I'm just a die hard fan of the sport. It's not something that I can ignore.

So there you have it. This constant dilemma of dealing with trivial matters and matters of great importance. And then there is also that continual pursuit to find a balance between the two. Got to love the game, though. It's what keeps things interesting!

I'm testing a way to add an occasional video or slide show to my blog.
The first link will take you to a video that I recently made using my mini Samsung camcorder. There is no sound for this video. I'll try adding a video that has sound later. Check it out!

The below link will take you to a website where you can view a slide show of photos that were taken in San Francisco while on an outing with the "CES Boys". I'll update with a link to a newer slide show very soon. This one goes back about a year and a half ago. So... a new one will be forthcoming.
