DO YOU WANT TO SEE A HERO CLOSE UP?
I suggest you do what Burt Brady does….you can figure out how, even if you don’t live in Dallas.
Furthermore, if seeing those heroes wasn’t enough…..when you get back from welcoming your defenders home, have a look in the mirror!

AYAAN HIRSI ALI IS A DEFINING HERO FOR THE 21st CENTURY
AYAAN HIRSI ALI is under sentence of death by radical Islamists, the same ones who murdered THEO VAN GOGH, the Dutch film director who made the movie SUBMISSION from Ayaan’s script.
IF YOU CAN MANAGE TO SUSPEND YOUR DISBELIEF, YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE THE ILLUSIONIST
The “illusions” that make the story meaningful can only be done on film, but (for most of us) it’s still a really satisfying movie. A great cast, including Edward Norton in the title role, Jessica Biel as the young woman he loves, Rufus Sewell as the horrible Crown Prince, and Paul Giamatti, whose portrayal of the butcher’s son who rises to Chief Inspector of Police is really well-done.
If you’re read John Eldredge’s book, WILD AT HEART, you’ll know exactly why this is such a satisfying tale. Have fun with THE ILLUSIONIST
PARAGLIDING IS A FABULOUS SPORT…..BUT BE CAUTIOUS!
PARAGLIDING is about as close to actually flying as you’re likely to get—dreams (didn’t you have them?) can come true when you are properly trained and can fly one of these by yourself. But, as in any flying, it’s not all “Oh Wow!“ and dreamy afternoons enjoying the scenery.

SMART WOMEN, STUPID CHOICES…..?
The sad truth is that it is “educated” women who are having their choices more and more limited these days…...but not by men.
Despite all the hype about glass ceilings, and favoritism for males, and the rest of the nonsense being sold by the feminists in our country, the real problem is that young MEN aren’t taking education seriously, with nasty repercussions for society, and more personally, for young women who graduate from college and would like to find a nice young man with similar educational attainments.
