2nd to Last Addition to 30 Before 30 List and Updates

When I created my 30 Before 30 list back at the end of January I left 2 spaces open for anything that would pop up (and because I couldn't think of anything else).  My wife recently came up with an idea for me that would get us both out of our comfort zone – visit 5 restaurants we have never been too.  Now this might not seem very outgoing to some people but to my wife and I who have our Cheers in our hometown this is a big deal. We have a list of our usual haunts that we go to whenever we go out for dinner and we rarely deviate from that list.  In this, my last year of my 20s, I will deviate hence this addition to the list.  The part that makes this addition easy is we watch Phantom Gourmet every weekend when we are home.  Our list of places to eat grows every week. 

As for the rest of my 30 Before 30 list, I am starting off very slowly. I have only eaten 2 different dishes at 2 of my favorite restaurants (Happy Jack’s and Cheesecake Factory).   I am working my way towards running a 5K but that goal will most likely not happen until Fall 2014.  I will keep posting when I have more things to share with my 30 Before 30 list but for now that is all folks!

Don't Lose the Magic: Shadowhunters Season 1

The Shadowhunter world is powerful. Not because of magic, steles, demons, or potions but of the emotions tied to every single character.  Cassandra Clare wielded such heartening characters in her books that bringing the world to the big and little screen seemed almost too much.  When the movie came out, it didn’t live up to the hype of many dedicated fans. Now with the show having gone through its 1st season (and the 2nd season on the horizon) the question is the same: can the producers of the show keep Clare’s world in tact and please everyone?  That is a resounding no. When the news first broke that The Mortal Instrument books series would be turned into a television show I was optimistic.  The feature film had a lot of buildup and hype. Unfortunately it did not live up to the majority’s expectations and fell flat when it was released.  I enjoyed it from a movie and entertainment viewpoint but when comparing it to the book it left something to be desired...

Sherlock Holmes At Your Service

In the world of modern science and technology, we sometimes forget how much intuition and extreme attention to detail was important in determining a murder or a thief before the newest advances in science. In the world of Sherlock Holmes, that attention to detail and intuition is what keeps him alive and gives him the title of most loved fictional detective. In the movie Sherlock Holmes , Robert Downey, Jr. plays the title character with Jude Law playing his trusty sidekick and occasional brunt of jokes, Dr. John Watson. The movie opens with Holmes and Watson catching a formidable opponent in the act of sacrificing a woman for a ritual – something this man has done 5 times before. The man is Lord Blackwood and the arrest is a highlight for Holmes as Lord Blackwood is to be put to death. Blackwood is hanged for his crimes and everyone sees him die – or so they thought. Later on, he is “seen” leaving his grave and around the town. Holmes is now curious so with his trusty sidekick, Wats...
