The Beer Church
On Friday we had a show in Lawton, OK. So after work I drove 3 hours to our show. For the life of me I don't understand why we chose Oklahoma, Lawton especially. They don't take credit cards because it is a low income area and most people don't even have driver's licenses. I really do think some parts of the country should count as the third-world. The women there are, well, how shall I put it, mis-featured - too much of one thing and not enough of the other. There were about 50 people there, a good crowd for Corporate Red's standards. They seemed to enjoy us - even though my timing was off from driving too much. I even signed a CD and a T-Shirt. I spent the night at a friend of the band's house sleeping on a floor. I spent the rest of the weekend in Wichita visiting the fam. I did see the new movie "The Incredibles" at the movie theater. I'd say it was a cute movie. There were some sporadic funny parts. If I was about 20 years younger I would have thought it was great. However I think Pixar has given up innovating their graphics. They were in line with the original Toy Story, maybe a little less, but that was 5 years ago. I hear the new movie Polar Express is going to have a lot better graphics. People wonder why I didn't get into graphics and game programming. The answer is easy - 80 hours a week getting paid less with a small hope the stock options pay off. But since the movie industry flubs their accounting, every feature is doomed to pretend to loose money. On a lighter note my nephew said of my step-father the other day, "Grandma goes to a regular church; Grandpa goes to a beer church."
