Courageous - The Movie

Yesterday afternoon, I went the movie theater to see "Courageous." I knew absolutely nothing about the film, other than I had heard from someone that it was a great movie. I had no idea what I was about to experience. This is the most powerful, impactful, and emotional movie I've ever seen. This movie is absolutely guaranteed to move you to the core. A movie that will actually touch your soul. The only thing you can do, is go see this for yourself.

"J.R." begins battle with cancer



(CNN) -- Actor Larry Hagman said Friday that he has been diagnosed with cancer, but noted "it is a very common and treatable form" of the disease.


Larry Hagman, 80, is best known for his role as "J.R." in the long-running TV series "Dallas" (1978-1991)


"As J.R I could get away with anything -- bribery, blackmail and adultery," Hagman said. "But I got caught by cancer."


In 1995, Hagman received a liver transplant that ultimately saved his life, as he was battling cirrhosis.


Thoughts and prayer for a successful treatment and speedy recovery!

Hank Williams Jr. Dropped by ESPN


Hank Williams, Jr. may be ready for some football, but he's not doing with ESPN anymore.

ESPN says in a statement: "While Hank Williams Jr. is not an ESPN employee, we recognize he is closely linked to our company through the opening to Monday Night Football. We are extremely disappointed with his comments, and as a result have decided to pull the open from tonight's telecast."

According to USA Today: Williams, perhaps best known for his "are you ready for some football?" lead-in to ESPN's Monday Night Football, Monday compared this summer's so-called golf summit between Obama and House Speaker John Boehner as "one of the biggest political mistakes ever."

As Williams put it on Fox News' Fox & Friends: "It would be like Hitler playing golf with (Israeli leader) Benjamin Netanyahu."

When asked on Fox to explain his analogy, Williams said Obama and Vice President Biden are "the enemy."

Needless to say, ESPN frowns on such things.

Hank has said he's interested in running for office, and has considered seeking a US Senate seat in Tennessee in 2012.
