Haunted book Review and 2006 Movies

I just finished the book Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk today. I expected so much more after I read the first story, but it's still a pretty decent read thereafter. It's the Canterbury Tales mixed in with Clue. The whole book keeps you attached, even though the main story is kind of goofy. Each side story will keep you wanting to read on and on to see just how twisted and messed up their lives really are. Is it worth the read? This is definitely worth reading. The detailed descriptions of gruesome scenes used by Palahniuk, will make anyone feel sick in the stomach for days. If disturbing and demented is what you want, with a funny spin on things, this is your book. 4 out of 5.
Enticing as Haunted was, I was quick to pick up Diary, another novel by Palahniuk. Just reading the synopsis and knowing that Chuck wrote it, my expectations are high for this one.

Haunted is Haunting

23 pages into the book Haunted, and I admit, I am greatly disturbed already. The book is suppose to get more extreme with each story, and I am starting to fear what lies ahead, if the first few pages are this squeamish. I am saying this so that you jump on the bandwagon now. This book is like a horrible car crash, you know you want to look away, but you also want to see some blood. Also take note that anyone who can be creative enough to write something like Fight Club, deserves to have their others works looked at.

From the sky.....3 days left to 300

Do you love crazy, out of this world pictures that you would never ever expect to see on a normal site, and are actually G-rated. Check this site out for a quick fix of you daily internet craving. Sky Pics

Another thing to keep in mind is that 300 comes out in 3 days...Yes, that is right 3 more days until the much anticpated movie of the year finally gets released worldwide.

Philly fans------- this may be the year.
Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Jimmy Rollins, Aaron Rowand, Chris Coste, Shane Victorino, Pat Burrell, Wes Helms, and finally some picthers that could actually do something. First time since I have been a Phillies fan that we got at least 5 starters let alone 6. That means Freddy Garcia, Cole Hamels, Brett Myers, Jon Lieber, Adam Eaton, and Jamie Myers will have to actually compete for a spot on the starters list.

Dates that mean something
Sunday April 29, vs Marlins-------> Phanatic Bobble-Head
May 11-13 Chicago Cubs at Home
Wednesday May 16 vs Brewers----> Ryan Howard MVP Bobble-Head
Sunday June 3, vs Gaints----------> Shane Victorino Hula Figurine
June 11-13 Chicago White Sox at Home
June 15-17 Detriot Tigers at Home
July 13-15 St.Louis Cardinals at Home
Wednesday July 25, vs Nationals---> Cole Hamels Christmas in July Bobble-Head
September 25-27 Atlanta Braves at Home

Here is a cool way to get some ideas on how to shoot roads for those curious, and creative photographers
