pure random thoughts from the past several weeks

- I really like Chantal Kreviazuk's Feels Like Home. I unfortunately must confess that I heard it while watching How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. I think Kate Hudson is absolutely stunning and stop and stare whenever she's on TV. Plus I think Matthew McConaughey is a horrible actor and its like watching a train wreck.

- Rain Man was on TV and of course everybody remembers Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman in the movie, but I remember the girls voice. I knew her from something else so I had to find out. She is also the girl that Charlie Sheen fried an egg on in Hot Shots. Valeria Golino. More importantly she was in Clean Slate with Dana Carvey, Big Top Pee Wee and Four Rooms.

- I listen to Kidd Kraddick in the Morning on 96.1 as I drive to work. Some mornings I am laughing so much I worry about what other drivers think. So mornings I don't laught at all.

- Andy Sandberg, of SNL, tongue kissing that dog (when Zack Braff hosted) was both hilarious and revolting at the same time.

- Speaking of Andy Sandberg, his movie Hot Rod looks great.

- Worse than Andy Sandberg kissing the dog was Zack Braff kissing the other actor that night.

- I'm amazed at how many actors and actresses had a role in a Boy Meets World episode. Someday I'm going to have to look all those up.

- Neil Patrick Harris is refered to in Harold and Kumar god to White Castle as "NPH". I love that.

- I've enjoyed The Riches on FX. It's fascinating and sad.

- Gretchen Wilson said on the CMT Diary the following quote and I found it beautiful and profound. Not bad for a red neck woman. "Silence is the most beautiful song I've ever heard."

Been away for a while...

I've been away for some time. I have another blog that I maintain, but recently I've been unable to access it, therefore I'm posting here until I solve the problem and possibly return to trevorscott.vox.com.
Although I've been having a major "life-decision" moment that may change all my online usage. I am a huge fan of everything Google is doing. From the actual search engine, to the accessories, to even how the company opperates. So deep down in the core of who I am I long to convert to everything Google.
This more would require a lot more than just changing my primary blog. I am an avid fan of Flickr. And I don't think Google's Picasa Web Albums is as finely tuned as Flickr. But I have no doubt that eventually it will be.

I just realized that I missed the 100th post. I guess I wasted it on a news article about a man who grunts too much.

Yeah!

Scientology?

Here is a link to a report on Scientology from RollingStone Mag.

It seems to be a fair article, asking what is it and why would it make Tom Cruise so nutty. It definitely answers a lot of questions about what it is and what they believe.

What were they thinking?

A ban on all religion?

"From my point of view, I would ban religion completely. Organized religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into really hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate." - Elton John

You can read more of Elton John's statement HERE.

I'm a little torn by the comments made by Sir Elton. While I think it's pretty shortsighted and intolerant of him to not allow a person of faith to have the opinion that homosexuality is wrong, I wonder if this reaction is due to the unloving response Christians have shown the gay community.

It's hard to live a response like Jesus' because Jesus never encounter a homosexual in the scriptures. But we do know that Jesus loved sinners and responded to sinners with demonstrations of love. And we know that Jesus was stern and confronting in the way he addressed believers who did not demonstrate love.

I am not in anyway condoning homosexuality. Just like I wouldn't condone any kind of sexual immorality. But I do believe we need to be a people who love the unlovably...just like God loved us.
