Movie Review (Green Zone)
I saw this Saturday and even though I wasn't tempted to turn it off, it was kind of boring. The actors played their parts well, and I think that things were represented alright but it just wasn't engaging. It may have been the veiled political messages or maybe just the subject matter. One reviewer called it "Jason Bourne goes to Baghdad." It's nothing like the Bourne series, and the character is completely different too. Overall it was entertaining but I wouldn't rush out to see it. The other option was Hot Tub Time Machine, but plugged in online said it was pretty foul so we chose to skip it.

Movie Review (The Book of Eli)
Amazing! This was a great story even if a bit violent. The violence and language seemed contextually accurate so I can handle that, nothing gratuitous. IF you haven't seen it, run don't walk. The only knock I have was that the movie was incredibly dark. When I say that I mean I couldn't see things on the screen sometimes. I also could have done without the sepia filter used to shoot most of the scenes. Even with that, I almost cried at the end which surprised me.

Home Depot
I find it odd that you can wear LGBT paraphernalia but you cannot wear the words from our pledge of allegiance. This is a perfect example of discrimination and is very unfortunate. If Home Depot wants to actually be fair, don't allow either one. You also shouldn't allow your employees to wear their uniform aprons in non-company events or off property. If you really want equality, then be equal. If you just want to pick a side then say you're choosing sides and be prepared for the consequences.
