🍿 Find Me Falling (2024) ★★½ - Pretty predictable 🤷‍♂️

🍿 Annihilation (2018) ★★★½ - Just read the book, so, yeah this one was weird as it was so different from the book. I did enjoy it and I understand how so much of the book would be hard to convey on-screen. Book was far better. But I do like Natalie Portman.

Jumped out of a perfectly good airplane today with my buddy Fred. Third time ever tandem jumping. First jump was just a few weeks ago. Super amazing experience — 48 seconds of free falling from 13,500ft followed by an adventurous canopy ride on a beautiful day! 🪂

Today, I attended a one-day “Taste of Blacksmithing” class conducted by Morrell Metalsmiths in Colrain, Massachusetts. This was a Christmas gift from my wife that had to be rescheduled several times, and today was finally the day!
How do I break the ice with the first post on my new blog?

Arizona supreme court ruling renders it entirely unpalatable to visit their state again.

My Leatherman is the perfect multi-tool, I don’t know how they pull off this feat of engineering! Whenever I wear it on my belt, I never need it! But if I leave it on my bedside table…
