Introducing: Ryan Short

Ryan James was born today at 4:57pm. He weighed in at 7 pounds 12 ounces and 20 inches long. Proud parents Rick and Laura are doing well and are excited as can be!

Now, who’s next?

National Treasure

National TreasureIt’s like this: Legend has it that the founding fathers of America – you know the ones, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, etc… – assembled an enormous treasure and hid it from the British Government leaving behind only a series of complex clues.

Some 200 years later, treasure hunter Ben Gates (Nicholas Cage) is hot on the trail but is double-crossed by his partner. What follows is a cat and mouse game between the former colleagues to be the first to finally dig up the bling.

I wasn’t exactly in a hurry to see National Treasure. I mean, I wanted to, but, there always seemed to be something else available that I wanted to see more. When I finally did get around to seeing it, I really really liked it. It was fun. It was smart. It was different. Jerry Bruckheimer produced it so that automatically gets it off on the right foot. Nicholas Cage was good again. Oh, and Diane Kruger is hot!

I just hope National Treasure 2 doesn’t prove to be too much of a good thing.
