Daniel's Realm

I ordered "Wrath of the Titans" from Amazon.com shortly after it was released on DVD.  It is a good movie--it is filled with action.  I had the remake of "Clash of the Titans" and liked the updated version as well and added it to my personal collection.  The computer graphics in both movies are very good and when Kronos (the father of Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon) comes to life whoa. I hope you get the chance to see both of these action-filled movies!

The last week and better was extremely hot and unbearable.  Summer definitely stuck around for quite a few days all across the country.  Which also brought some devastating storms to the area and thousands of people without power in that heat . . . Not good.  According to the last update, most everyone in this area is supposed to have their power restored by 11:30 tonight (July 8).  We will see what updates are on the 11:00 news. 

Summer has officially made its appearance--it was 97 Degrees today (June 19) and tomorrow some areas could break 100 degrees--we will see how long it lasts. Not too much has happened since the last post--at work we went on a new Information Management System (software program) called Symphony--it is different there is a lot to learn on this new system my colleagues and I will all get there, it will just take some time.  We are getting mixed reviews from our regular patrons--some like some don't like it at all, but they know they will have to get used to it. There was nothing on TV tonight after I got home from work so I decided to listen to some of my songs I have saved on my computer as I am catching up with Facebook, Twitter and my blog.  This evening was the first Super Cruise in my hometown of Wauseon, Ohio--looked like they had a good turn out--the next Super Cruise will be the third Tuesday of July and the last one will be the third Tuesday in August--the last Tues...

Memorial Day weekend has came and went.  It was a good weekend--broke the record in temperature today--May 28, 2012--it was 96 Degrees--wow!! Spent the weekend with family after work on Friday came back today.  Had a cookout yesterday--hamburgers, hot dogs, BBQ Chicken Wings! Yum!  Everything turned out great on the grill!  This was one of the better Memorial Day Weekends I have had in awhile. Thank you to all of our Service Personnel That have served and those that are still serving--we are grateful for all you have done and sacrificed to protect our freedom.  Those of you that are serving, I keep you all in my thoughts and prayers each and every day. Visited grave sites of family and friends that we have lost over the years--cannot do that all in one weekend, we will visit some other sites throughout the summer--visited my Great-Grandmother's Grave, I had not been there in a number of years--I almost forgot where she was buried--then my mom remembered an...

My Birthday has came and gone for another year--I am another year older and another year wiser.  My brother took me out for lunch for my birthday--a good meal glad we went, it was just nice to spend the afternoon with my brother and my mom and dad.  My birthday was a good one this year--just spending with my family--my cousin Heather also celebrated her birthday this past weekend (we were both born on the same day, month, and year)! 

Last night (March 24) I attended the second annual Four County Career Center Alumni Dinner held at the school. I am so glad I decided to attend this event after I seen it advertised in the newspaper.  I seen quite a few people I knew from when I was a student there.  The meall was delicious as were the deserts.  We also got to tour the building after the meal--wow! About sums it up.  The nice changes in the building since I graduated from there were impressive.  I was asked to be on the planning committee for next year's event and I said yes--I am planning on attending the event next year.  I had so much fun and it was nice seeing people I hadn 't seen in years.  I am looking forward to next year's dinner.

I have had my New Amazon Kindle Fire now for about 2 weeks.  I am having fun with it--downloading free books (who would have ever guessed that the free books would end up being good titles that grab your attention).  It is so much fun (not that I plan on never reading a book, book ever again--I still like to read a book, book.  The electronic version just makes it easier for travel--instead of taking three or four books when I would travel, I can take my Kindle and read the books that I have downloaded to it (the Kindle is so much lighter than three or four books). I did not realize how many free books are available to download either from Amazon.com or a public library.  I do not regret purchasing my Kindle Fire.  It is a matter of preference to which E-Reading Device one wants--the Kindle, the Nook, or an Apple Ipad.  There are those that like their Nook; there are those that like their Kindles (like me); and there are those that like their Ipad or SmartP...
