I took Austin to see the DaVinci Code yesterday. The reviews suck but I didn't think it was that bad. I mean it wasn't as good as the book but how the hell would anyone expect it to be? Good lord, the book was CRAZY good and the movie was pretty damn good, too. The movie changes some things up and to be honest I'm not so sure that they were bad changes. I don't think people would be complaining too much if this hadn't been a book first. Know what I mean? He and I have tickets to see X-men 3 next Thursday at midnight. Can't wait.

I watched the 100 Top Artists of Rock and Roll today and Craig came in from his golf game while they were only in the first 70 or so, and I had to laugh my ass off because he didn't know most of the first half of the bands but he DID recognize some of the bands. It was SO funny when he didn't recognize Blue Oyster Cult's name but he did recognize the song from the skit on SNL. See, Craig's parent's (his mom really) wouldn't let him listen to rock so he doesn't know much of it. We were coming back from Austin last weekend and I put in my old Kiss "Destroyer" album and you should have seen his face!! LOLLLLL (Ace Frehley was my first love, I'm pretty sure!!!)

I'm pretty versatile with my music choices I think. I like all kinds. Country, classical, R&B, I LOVE rap but my first and best love is rock n roll. I don't think that will ever get old. 80's rock... guess ya had to be there. Especially for the Texas Jam. An all day jam session at the Cotton Bowl of bands from morning until late night ending with a headliner like Foreigner or Styx. I witnessed Sammy Hagar and Ted Nugent on stage together just kicking ass with guitars. Van Halen live with Hagar in concert was better, but still... wow. Sigh. C'mon... admit it... a little Rush (no pun intended), a side of Poison, just a touch of Motley Crue. Metallica. Wasn't that just the other day? Oh wait, Craig listened to Depeche Mode way before he ever even knew my name, so I gotta give him that one at least. God I'm old.

I've noticed, with co-workers and 'daughters' that it is a case of 'you had to be there' with 80's rock...
my boss and I love it...my co-worker just doesn't 'get it' LOL (she's 24)

and you're not old...just experienced ;-)

That music does bring back some really good memories!!! I can't believe that Craig doesn't know half those names ~ where did he live under a rock LOL ~ love ya there Craig baby!! I personally don't like watching movies where I have read the book the movies don't cover it as well in my opinion. The Horse Whisper ruined that issue for me!! Anyhow ~ give me a call soon!! Talk to ya later ~
