drawings from the Harry Potter books by a girl named Tealin. They're very good. Also, check out the terra extra harry potter section( which are drawings from the Discworld novels among other things) at the bottom of the page and her livejournal.

My grandparents are going to Ireland soon( which is one of the places I would love to visit), so I thought I would put up some good links to do with Ireland. http://www.dublincastle.ie http://www.irlgov.ie/aboutireland/eng/photogallery/default.asp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ireland

I've been in Ocean City for a couple of days, so I apologize for the lack of posting. I also wanted to say thanks for all the great reviews : ) .

I just saw An Inconvenient Truth, a movie by Al Gore about Global Warming and what you can do to stop it. It really opens your eyes about the horrible situation we're in and the effects that will follow, and are already happening if we don't do anything about it. America is the biggest producer of CO2 in the world and one of the only two major countries that haven't joined the kyoto protocol( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyoto_Protocol ).

I got my ipod fixed for free! So I got a new iPod and I was able to get all my old songs back from iTunes. Instead of going to Virginia Beach as planned we went to one of the biggest malls in the U.S. (which is located in Philadelphia). I took it to the people at apple store there, and since I had 1 year warranty they gave me a new one after confirming it was dead. Also two new books that are coming out in a couple of months: Artemis Fowl: The Lost Colony by Eoin Colfer (#5) September 2006 and The End ( A Series of Unfortunate Events #13) by Lemony Snicket Friday the 13th October 2006 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/0786849568/ref=dp_image_0/102-6708459-5892124?ie=UTF8&n=283155&s=books

Some random avvies, because I'm too lazy to post anything worthwhile right now. :)

I found this picture on google by accident. I think its a really good pic of Max.

Looks like I'm going back on vacation tommorow. I think we're going to Virginia Beach for a couple of days. I'm feeling really uncreative right now, so I'll post more stuff later.

Okay, I think I've found an ipod solution. The ipod care plan. I'll get a new ipod, and since I still have my old iTunes account I'll get all the songs I downloaded and copied from CDs on it right away. Its suppose to be pretty cheap. Also, comments are appreciated people! (That means you Joey and Jenn!) *Gives cookie to people who comment*

Here's two cool websites my friend Joey sent to me via e-mail. Check them out. http://www.wordsmith.org/anagram/index.html http://www.tbshumorstudy.com/

My ipod nano is dead. After getting my ipod wet at the beach a couple days ago I've been trying like hell to get my ipod back to normal. Right now I'm trying to find some solutions to fix it using google. My iTunes software isn't updating the ipod either. Geesh, my ipod is practically brand new! if all else fails I'll take it to the people at an apple store and see what they can do. At least I didn't drop my ipod in the toliet or put it in the washer, which has been happening a lot to people...

Also, more news on pirates 3:
Official title: Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
Official Release Date: May 25th 2007

Spider Man 3 and Shrek 3 are also coming out in May next year.

I saw Pirates, and it was amazing! Almost every seat in the theater was filled. We had to get to the theater 2 hours before to buy tickets because all the other times were sold out. I saw a bunch of people who came dressed as pirates or were wearing dresses that looked like they were from the 18th century. One guy was even wearing the whole Captin Jack Sparrow costume. I really enjoyed the whole movie. It was a bit weirder than the 1st, but really funny and like the 1st had awsome fight scenes, special effects, and stunts. It also leaves you with a huge cliffhanger that goes into the third movie.
Also, speaking of the 3rd movie there's been news that Keith Richards (from the Rolling Stones) is going to be in it playing Jack's father. I think this is going to be really cool, espically since Capt. Jack Sparrow's character was modeled after him. Johny Depp himself convinced Richards to do the role. I'm definetly looking foward to seeing the next movie which should be coming out next summer.

One more day till Pirates!! Here's an awsome background I found.

Some awsome harry potter and pirate avatars for no reason...

meep! I'm still in Florida, but now West Palm Beach. I've had to move from hotel to hotel at least 5 times. Ugghh, I hate getting up early to check out. At least I didn't get sunburned yet. I saw the movie Click a couple of days ago. It was very funny, but also had a good moral beneath it, and it really makes you think about the way you live your life. I still can't wait to see Pirates of the Caribbean 2 though! Check out the official website: http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/pirates And happy 4th of July to everyone in U.S.A. in 2 days.
