First Bees Game of the Season


Filed under: Outings — bart @ 9:15 am

On 8/17/11

I went to my first “Bees” game of the season. It was just me and my Step-dad and Boy Did we have a great time!!!

I remember The Bottom of the sixth Inning was my favorite because bases were loaded and the Bess scored 3 runs, It was great.

I was a little disappointed with the final score though went I saw that we lost to the Iowa Cubs 7-9.

Oh well Sometimes ya swing and get a hit and sometimes ya miss.

I can’t wait to go to another one, Thanks Randy for Taking Me!!!

Bart’s Space Move Review

August 12, 2011


Filed under: movies — bart @ 6:49 pm

A chameleon named Rango winds up in Dirt, a lawless town in desperate need for a new sheriff.

I thought this was a pretty funny animated Western. The thing that surprised me was the amount of Crude language that was riddled through this script, I mean I know this is a western and they may have used that kind of language in those days, This is however a “Kids” Movie and I don’t think they need to be subjected to that.

My Other “Peeve” is that the pacing was a bit too slow in the beginning I mean again I know they did it to give it that” Western feel”, But they could’ve sped it up a little.

Other than that I thought that this was a Great Western with great animation and solid story.


Overall Rating 3/5 stars)

Bart’s Space Book Review

August 8, 2011


Filed under: Books — bart @ 11:05 am
As I finished this It really, Was astonishing to me the tenacity, grit, and Tremendous faith that these Pioneers had to Leave their Homes behind and Travel for months through Rough and treacherous terrain, not to mention the inclement weather conditions they faced. They Had to be a stout and hardy People to endure this trek.

I’ve Rode over similar terrain in a Four wheel Drive and I can catch a glimpse of How Tough it must’ve have been for them, But to Do it in a wagon!!! It Just Blows me away!!!!

I also can’t believe what an emotional toll the Families of the trail scouters must’ve payed being away from their families for weeks and months,
That Just Shows me How strong the women were as well, because they never knew how long their Husbands would be away, not to mention having to care for their children and having to deal with very meager rations for themselves, children and animals.


So I Just can’t Say Enough about this Book and my love for My Pioneer ancestors for settling this land in which I live.
Simply amazing Story and people!!!

(Overall Rating 5/5)

Bart’s Space Movie Review

After being deemed unfit for military service, Steve Rogers volunteers for a top secret research project that turns him into Captain America, a superhero dedicated to defending America’s ideals.

It was one of those Marvel Movies that was brand new to me Because It introduced Captain America,

a superhero that I didn’t really know, But what really made me want to see it was my grandma Webb. She gave it a “Ringing Endorsement”, So I thought If grandma saw it “It has to be sweet”.

Well after I saw it I concur because It was awesome!!! It also introduces some characters that appear in later Marvel Franchises, But I won’t say any more than that because you’ll know once you see it.

“Overall a Great film that’s a great ride from start to finish.”

(Overall Rating 4/5 stars)

The life of a businessman begins to change after he inherits six penguins, and as he transforms his apartment into a winter wonderland, his professional side starts to unravel.

I Thought at first that this was just going to be one of those Cute Special-effects kind of Movies with a sub-par story, But as the move progressed I thought the story was actually really good.

It’s a Family Friendly comedy that actually used “Real Penguins” which I thought were very talented.

I guess I’m so used now to seeing CGI animals that I’m starting to forget what the “Real ones look like”.

It also had great Messages “You can be a family no matter what species you are.” And the Most important thing in life is your family.”

A group of zoo animals decide to break their code of silence in order to help their lovable zookeeper (Kevin James) find love — without opting to leave his current job for something more illustrious. woman.

I went to a Drive-in last night with some friends and saw this along with “Mr. Poppers Penguins”.

So For this first review I thought this was a pretty funny farce using animals to play matchmaker for a bumbling zookeeper, and The Formula works pretty well, although at times I felt the pacing of the story was a little slow.

Overall I thought this was a decent film that worked well for drive-in Fare.
