We Saw Miami Vice

Hello Jim & Kim fanatics...and welcome to JimmyPowell.com!
A fun & entertaining site where you can get a glimpse into our little world!

Happy Birthday wishes going out to my beloved Kim today. It's still early in the day and she hasn't gotten her gifts yet so for now I'll just say Happy Birthday! :-)

Self explanatory...

Kim had been sick with a severe cold virtually all week so we took things pretty easy this weekend while she was on the mend. We did a little bit of light shopping Friday night and watched some TV. I had to photograph an art festival Saturday afternoon but Kim felt like going out Saturday night so we went and saw Miami Vice the movie which was really good but nothing like the TV show. We spent most of Sunday afternoon laying by the pool and working on our tans and spent the rest of the night relaxing on the sofa watching a movie. And now you know...

Defeated Georgian representative (and confirmed crazy woman) Cynthia McKinney was singing the blues (literally) after losing her seat in congress last week. McKinney sang a few bars of an anti-bush song by Pink and then coyly blamed her defeat on electronic voting machines and called them a threat to democracy. I think the only people threatened by electronic voting machines are the idiots who voted for her in the first place.

There's some good news to report in the world today. The voters in Georgia finally sent Cynthia McKinney packing today as she lost her bid for re-election to Attorney Hank Johnson who was a virtual unknown 5 weeks ago. McKinney is the crazy congressional rep from Georgia who believes the Bush administration knew about 9/11 before it happened and then assaulted a congressional police office earlier this year when he had 'the nerve' to ask for her ID when he didn't recognize her. B-otch!

Not too much to report this week. We were out and about all weekend just messing around but not really doing anything significant. Just doing a little shopping, running a few errands, eating out, watching movies, recycling and doing clothes. That's what we did this weekend...enough said and I don't feel like doing a lengthy post right now.

Here's one that literally made me laugh out loud...enjoy!

A pompous minister was seated next to a Redneck on a flight across the country. After the plane was airborne, drink orders were taken. The Redneck asked for a Jack Daniels and coke, which was brought and placed before him.

The flight attendant then asked the minister if he would like a drink. He replied in disgust, "I'd rather be savagely raped by brazen whores than let liquor touch these lips."

The Redneck immediately handed his drink back to the flight attendant and said, "Shit, me too. I didn't know we had a choice!"    

This is an awesome way to tell your neighbors what you think of them. My neighbors to the right are oriental so I guess I could carve my hedges into a Godzilla shape! LOL!
    

We finally saw Pirates last night and it was pretty awesome in our opinions. It was nearly 2½ hours long but I would have gladly sat thru 8 hours it was so good. The special effects were great and it has lots of little twists and turns. The ending kinda blows your mind and we'll have to wait till next summer to see the conclusion. Another great thing was that you get to see the trailer for the Transformers which comes out next July 4th and should in all likelihood be HUGE!
