Sunday Sundown Rundown

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 3/25/18

3 Up

1. March For Our Lives - I honestly wonder what side of history many of those who are skeptical about these kids and this generation will be on? Saturday's turnout was unbelievable, and of course, so empowering. Also, so much respect to the youth of today who are leading this charge. I defend the current and next generation all the time, and it's days like yesterday which are evident of such defense.

1A. Emma Gonzalez - This girl is so bad ass. Her handle on speech rhetoric is amazing for such a young age. Her poise and fearlessness is even more admirable. As stated on Twitter by yours truly - so in awe.

2. Loyola Chicago - I refuse to use the term "Cinderella" or "underdog" here. Because quite honestly, it's only so when a handful of programs are constantly on National Television or even discussed by the so-called "experts". Regardless, glad to see programs that do it the right way get rewarded, and of course, who can resist the Sister Jean storyline?

3. NBA Feats - LeBron James had seventeen - SEVENTEEN - assists and no turnovers earlier this week. Dwight Howard, matched him with a 30 Point-30 Rebound performance. Two incredible feats taking place in the back end of the NBA season.

3 Down

1. Stephon Clark - Such a shame. Add "your own backyard" to the list of places black men can't be safe from police shootings. And 20 bullets? Seriously? But you know, Kaepernick taking a knee is disrespectful to [fill in whatever excuse to avoid the real discussion] - damn whatever he was trying to bring light to. America, sometimes, man...

2. Transgender Ban in Military - I'm not sure what it is with this President and his need to put this particular ban in place, but it's on par with most of his social issues. I just don't get it.

3. CNN - Look, it's rather apparent that I'm no fan of the President, but I call it like I see it, the latest interviews with Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels is pretty far reaching. I get the connection of bullying behavior, and a possibility of legal ramifications, but CNN, news, and journalism went to a low this week for their own agenda. Not a fan. At all. CNN took a huge L this week.

1 Seriously, Bro?

1. Rick Santorum - This dude really suggested kids better use their time in taking a CPR course? It's been pretty amazing and rather easy to see as of late who the NRA has on their dime by the stupidity and moronic comments being thrown around regarding gun control discourse.

Dome Pondering Movie Review: The Incredibles 2 (2018)

What is it about? The Parr family returns to take on a new mission which involves a change in family roles as well as a new villain. Who is in it? Craig T. Nelson - Bob Parr/Mr. Incredible Holly Hunter - Helen Parr/Elastagirl Sarah Powell - Violet Parr Favorite Scene: After trying to contain Jack-Jack, his constant battle with a backyard rodent opens up the family to the multitude of powers that he possesses, or even, can develop. Favorite Quote: "If you wanna get out of the hole, first you gotta put down the shovel." Review: Like many, I LOVED the original Incredibles film. And yes, I too was annoyed whenever a sequel wasn't announced. After all, there were many franchises that debuted, got a sequel, and even moved straight to release on their third installment before our lovable heroic family got their turn! But I digress... Nonetheless, it finally arrived. And if I'm being honest, The Incredibles 2 was good. It just wasn't what I wa

3 Up 1. Jim Brown's Legacy - It almost felt like it went without notice (maybe, just for me?), but the great Jim Brown left us this week. A fantastic athlete, with a more prominent voice and presence, Brown reshaped and redefined the standard for using your platform, and of course, expanding your influence. 2. Indoor Farms - As our natural resources became scarce, in some ways, alarmingly damaged (that's another discussion for another day), we've seen some amazing alternatives come about. The presence of indoor farms has been such, especially this precise farm in Compton that has produced 4.5 million pounds of leaves. Most importantly, is a resource within the community that was not available before. 3. $11B Rural Clean Energy Project - I'm sure they'll be some political retort to this, because well, there always is. But bringing clean energy to many rural areas of the United States is very much part of the issue in advancing our clean energy. On the surface, it

Dome Pondering Movie Review: We're the Millers (2013)

What is it about? A veteran neighborhood drug dealer creates a fake family of interesting people in his neighborhood to transport a huge shipment of drugs from Mexico into the U.S. Who is in it? Jason Sudeikis - David Clark Jennifer Aniston - Rose O'Reilly Will Poulter - Kenny Rosmore Emma Roberts - Casey Mathis

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 5/28/23

3 Up 1. Memorial Day Weekend - There are a lot of people who gave their lives for the freedoms we enjoy. It's more than a three-day weekend, or the unofficial start to summer - take some time and appreciate the many lives given to be where we are. 2. Tina Turner - An absolute favorite of mine, Turner leaves us with nothing but awesome songs, memories, and a vibe and energy that was unmatched. 3. Debt Limit Deal - Well, one week later and I think I understand the entire debt limit stuff. Nonetheless, we're giving it an "Up" as it's settled. Crisis averted? Go America. 3 Down 1. Target Rescinds Pride - Our society has become ridiculous. After conservatives railed liberals for "cancel culture", the right has doubled down with threats at Target regarding their Pride Month displays. All of this follows a Bud Light ban. We've officially become a country where we all cancel what we don't like. So much for discourse. 2. Catholic Church in Illinois -
