Christmas Plans

How is everyone? What is everyone doing for Christmas? We are going to be in Montana. Do people want to do secret santa this year? If so, I've drawn names and I can either post them or let people know individually so as to "Keep it secret. Keep it safe." (anyone? what movie?)

An Old Jazz Hero


Yes, I watched Jeff Hornacek play for the Utah Jazz. Yes, I watched him win the three-point contest at the all-star game. And Yes, I got his autograph Monday, November 12th at the Energy Solutions Arena, home of the Utah Jazz. He is a current Utah resident and comes to the Jazz games. He is currently coaching one of the Jazz star players, Andrei Kirilenko, on his outside shot, which we all know Jeff was a pro at.


There was a small gathering of people and I saw him standing there signing autographs. Riley gave me the courage to go join in. I felt bad because he was probably sick of signing autographs. It was finally my turn I said, "sorry, can you do one more?" he replied, "sure." I had a small pizza box in my hand and while he was signing my ticket said with a smile on his face, " you better eat that before the game starts." I didn't know what to say, I just chuckled. Anyway, that is my experience with a professional athlete.

Judge for Yourselves

This is Ivy:
This is Hui:



After reading your comments to Jen's post below, I was tempted to make the politically correct observation that most Americans think that all people of asian descent look alike -- whether they do or not. After futher examination, however, I came to the conclusion that these two women may actually look alike. What do you think?

Movie Review from Ryan


We went to see "Dan in Real Life" yesterday and it was excellent. It was very funny, but it is not a typical Steve Carrell comedy. Instead it was a tasteful film done by the same company that did the recent pride and predjudice movie. Aside from having a good message, it is also very clean. Everything about the movie was very natural and realistic. The dialogue and the characters were all down to earth; nothing stank of hollywood. We both thought it was great and we recommend it to all.

We also took a tour of the Olympic Training Complex in Colorado Springs, CO. They have training fascilities for a bunch of the events there. Mel loves the Olympics and desperately wants to work there.
