WHERE THEY ARE
Maurice Sendak. Does that name ring a bell? If not, don’t worry. It’s just that he’s got special place reserved, in that place where people keep special people in their minds.
You see, when I was in Grade 2, attending Massey Public School, I signed out a book from the library that was the spark for my love all things dreams and magical.
I used to think a lot of things as a seven year old. I remember making shadow puppets on the wall in my bedroom at night – make-believing a tale with foes good and bad in lands and places far off.
So, when I read about Max and his adventure in his wolf costume. An adventure that would take me to the place Where The Wild Things Are, I don’t think I’ve ever stopped imagining.
And now, the movie is soon to be released. I can only my hope my kids will share the same wonder.

CURRENTLY
Kingdom Of Heaven: The story of Balian’s quest for redemption and his battles against those who seek power in it’s name. This is an excellent movie whose message is perhaps more important today than it was then.
Dawkins tackles it all in his no holds barred approach to whether God exists. The stance? The probability of it? Very unlikely.
"Hopes and Fears” and “Under The Iron Sea” by Keane get constant play from my iTunes. Find out why their music is so good. After all they were the band that inspired Coldplay.
As Marcus Fenix, you fight a war against the immense Locust Horde, which not only out powers but outnumbers you, your squad, and the entire force of the Coalition of Ordered Governments. Time to pull out the stops in a game that delivers the next-generation in tactical combat systems in Gears of War.
