I Am Legend

On Monday a friend and I went and saw I Am Legend. It is a very good film, gripping, moving, disturbing, thought provoking. But if you love dogs it is also very difficult to watch in places. Over at the Journey Home Paul has some very interesting comments about the film. Will Smith connects the story of a scientist who is living alone in NY following a plague with the story of Job. There is a lot to seen in the movie including some discussion of the justice of God. I recommend it highly although the violence may be really distressing.

On a totally different note Little Mosque on the Prairie episodes are now available on itunes!

I enjoyed I Am Legend. Amy, not so much...a bit too intense, I think, though she does like the idea of being the only human left. Should I worry?

Being able to buy one's own Lego is the whole point of being an adult, isn't it? All the best toys can be yours!

I limit my impulsive buying to vestments and whatnot. Amy, however, has a fondness for Playmobil zoo toys...and I help acquire these for her. I was NOT "playing" with the alligators! I was just...dusting.
