Surrogates

In the not too distant future, technology allows humans to live their lives through robots they call surrogates. Humans have in effect cocooned themselves in their homes, never venturing outside. Rather, they explore life through their surrogates who may or may not resemble them. Tom Greer and his partner Peters are FBI agents assigned to investigate the destruction of two surrogates that has also caused the unthinkable: the human hosts were also killed. The use of surrogates is not universally endorsed with some humans living in technology and machine-free zones. Led by a man called The Prophet, the fear is that they have put their hands on a weapon that would fundamentally change human society. Greer believes they have also put their hands on a weapon that could fundamentally change society, though he begins to wonder if that might be a good thing. Definitely a memorable movie. I would recommend it.

The Spy Next Door

eavant — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 18:32:08 +0000

I recently watched a movie called The Spy Next Door. This movie is about a man that is in with the CIA and retires from his job. He meet a woman that he liked a while back and then she calls him and says she wants to meet up with him and talk. She says she has to go to jail for a couple of weeks and wants to know if he will keep her children for her. He says yes and then his old work calls him and wants him to help on a mission that they have to do. He tells that he will try to help but he is unsure about it. They try to take care of the children while they also fight with the bad people. Then the woman finds out about everything and says that she is never going to talk to him again. She ends up talking to him and everything is fine after all of it is solved and over. Everyone is ok and they all have a good life.

Valentines Day

My opinion of Valentines Day is, it’s an okay holiday for those who are in love and enjoy being with their boyfriend/girlfriend. Personally I like Valentines Day because everyone is in a generally good mood. I don’t think it’s necessarily about flowers or chocolates, but it’s about being with the one you love or are crushing on. So, to all of you people who can’t wait for Valentines Day, take that into consideration. Enjoy the day while it lasts and make the best of it.

Valentine’s Day

February 14th is a special day of the year. It is Valentine’s Day! This is a time for all couples to get together and remember who they fell in love with, what they love about each other and what they share as a whole. It is very important to have that inner connection with your partner and reconnect on February 14th. Valentine’s Day is almost like a reminder to remember who each of you are. Go out to dinner, a movie, have chocolate, have dinner at your home, flowers! It’s an amazing day of the year and it makes you feel all lovely and happy inside. Those of you who don’t have anyone, still be happy and share Valentine’s Day with family or your closest guy/girl friend and make each other happy! It’s not all about having someone to date or be with, it’s about being happy and being around the people you love and that love you!
