When I was little the little I used to love watching the little newts and lizards running around free on the roads and sidewalks whenever I was in warm places like Arizona or Cancun. I still look for them. Over time though because of all the buildings, and shopping malls that
have been built, they don't come out as much. Actually, it's rare to see even one. They would always make me laugh when I would see them because they were so cute and teeny. They looked like little people running around wearing these giant green flippers. They are so scared to come out because they are afraid of the people.
I can relate to that more than anything else. I'm never comfortable in large crowds of people and shy away from things like that. I prefer to be with those close to me in private, getting lost in board games or silly movies that we love watching together. Then, I come out when it's alright, when I find my little stone if you will. Until then, you won't see me.
I like to think that those little lizards I would watch scurry all over through the grass beneath my feet still come out at a special time during the night when all the people are asleep and no one can bother them. They know it's safe because the
people won't be able to hear them. The small fingers on their small rubbery feet are as quiet as a passing breeze. What they love to do the most is come out at night and crawl ontop of these giant rocks and just stare up into the night sky. If you are real quiet, you may spot one. It's interesting how you can sometimes only see the purity of something when it is clouded over by other things more complex and overwhelming. It makes you appreciate what they are and how they require nothing but the smallest of things to fill their world.
For these little lizards, it was the nightsky and a nice stone to hop up upon - that's all. That's all they need.
That is why my love for animals and helping animals has allowed me to continue on. If I can't see it on the sidewalk in front of me I will sketch one in one of my many books, or I will write about it, or write a song. I can implant the feelings however I choose - whenever I choose, and in whatever
form I choose. Practical and concrete or as I choose, mysterious and immortal.
Regardless of sex or gender, it comes ; it isn't anything you can feel or describe. It is an illusion ; a prism of colors that go on for miles and miles and morph into perfection. Once things like that are no longer visible, it's time for me to stop.
I am a very humble, down to earth, simple person who it's terribly romantic and old fashioned at heart. I don't want to rush anything in terms of love, if it happens it happens, I am in no rush. Someone to love me and take care of me and someone I can laugh with and love with regardless of what I look like would be a treasure. One day, just another thing that may come if it's meant to.
"Divinity in motion", the KING OF POP and incredible human being, Michael Jackson. Much love and respect to MJJ always. No other entertainer or person alive like him today.

Very few sequels will ever capture the feeling and excitement of the original. That said, I disagree with a number of the blogcritics reviews but mostly because bagging on Matrix Reloaded is similar to shooting fish in a barrel. Like any movie based outside of reality, you have to possess the ability to suspend belief for just a little over two hours. If you can't do that, why bother watching the film at all?

The Matrix Reloaded is by far the WORST sequel that I have ever seen! I felt as though I had been robbed as I left the cinema, why? Well first of all the story was extremly weak and full of contradictions from the first movie. Also, Jada Pinkett Smith is a HORRIBLE actress to say the least! What happend to the feel of the first, I am happy to see that the movie is bombing in it's second weekend because it deserves to bomb!

AWESOME!!!!
Concerning Matrix, I really prefer the original one written by a french author in the late 70's... Same concept, Very similar story. Just go there to make an idea. Gerard Cambri
