Harry Potter finale

Last night I went to the movies, specifically Harry Potter The deathly hallows part 2. It was memorable for several reasons:
  1. We, Laverne, Maria and I went to the Patricia Theatre, the oldest running movie theatre in Canada. Check out their website for info and pics.
  2. There was a parking spot right at the front. Oh the joy of living in an accessible community.
  3. We sat right at the front as it was the best place for my wheelchair. I remember 15 cent Saturday Matinees in the Castlegar Theatre. All us kids would sit at the very front to be overwhelmed by the giant picture. It was like that we sat at the side and the centre section was packed with kids. I felt right at home.
  4. The price was right: 9 for adults and 5.50 for seniors, thats me.
  5. Oh, the movie. It was a treat. Sort of like the third Lord of the Rings movies, full of battles and despair and then a final turn and all is well. It was time to end it. The heroes look too old to be school kids. The kissing was more credible though.
Ending on a personal note: Have you noticed, Ive learned to make commas,,, next comes the apostrophe. Thanks for praying, my spasms are somewhat reduced. And I never fell asleep in Harry Potter . . . as if.
Keep up the good work.

Regent Radio

Over the years I attended many summer school sessions at Regent College at UBC. Now that attending in person is difficult I appreciate using my computer to access some courses on Regent Radio check it out. Here is what they say about themselves:

RegentRadio.net is a free service sponsored by the Regent College Bookstore. You can support this ministry by purchasing titles from www.RegentAudio.com.

On Regent Radio you have to take what they put on. But the price is right.

A personal note: I have been having a rough time with spasms, hi temps, and fatigue. Pray that I will get better.
