INDIE MOVIES ROCK!!!


This past week the new movie Fireproof made headlines by reaching #4 at the box office with over $6 million in ticket sales.  It was produced by an all-volunteer staff from Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, GA.  This is the same ministry team that brought us the surprise 2006 hit film, Facing the Giants.

Do you have a favorite indie movie?  Share it by sending your email to me at steve@theriver1023.com.  My favorite indie flick has to be 1971's Billy Jack

Remember the end of that movie when all the students stood with their fists raised in the air as Billy Jack was arrested and led away by the police with that awesome song "One Tin Soldier" playing?  Did you cry?  Yeah.  Me too. 

Check out this video and have a hanky handy:

I'M MAD AT JEFF GORDON!

I'm officially torked at my favorite NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon!  If you missed the BIG news he announced on NBC's Today Show this morning that he's changing the color scheme on his #24 DuPont Chevrolet.  HE SHOULD'VE CALLED ME FIRST!!!  I now have a garage full of irrelevant, outdated, racing memorabilia!

On the other hand, you've gotta admit the new "Fireball" paint job looks wicked cool!!


*****start poll*****
Poll: Which 24 car do you like better - the new black or the current blue paint scheme?
*****end poll*****
