Happy Presidents Day. We actually worked yesterday (Sunday) for a while, adding some new features to the computers at the registry. Use the above link to send us an email and we'll tell you what those features are. But, enough of work. Today I saw the new Disney movie, Miracle, the story of the 1980 gold medal winning U.S. Olympic hockey team. Overall, it's a very good movie although some parts of it seemed to drag - it's hard to sustain two hours of edge-of-the-seat excitement when you already know how the story ends. There was no lack of excitement in the hockey scenes, however, as most of the actors are also hockey players. The PG rating must have been earned by the heavy body checks since there wasn't much swearing. It's certainly a movie you can take your kids to see. And for anyone born after 1980, it's a great history lesson about what life was like back at that time, with Ford Pinto's and Dodge Darts waiting in line to buy 5 gallons of gas, max, not to mention the Soviets seemingly on a path towards world domination. I guess we know how that ended, too.
