		<description><![CDATA[This has been a month of performance for Aidan. From theater to musicianship&#8211;he loves performing arts and doesn&#8217;t mind being in the spotlight too much either, as long as he&#8217;s on a stage that is. For the past six months or so, Aidan has been taking guitar lessons and has been having fun with it. [...]]]></description>

If you are as fed up with the formulaic plot driven junk churned out for children by American cinema as I am, check [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Stumbled upon this short animated film by Ryan Woodward recently. It&#8217;s a beautiful 3 minutes and 4 seconds if you&#8217;ve got the time to spare. In this two-dimensional narrative of movement, Woodward offers us a glimpse at the fleeting nature of our relationships as we touch, dance, and let go. The musical score is called [...]]]></description>

Think! is something we were introduced to last year but we kind of forgot about until this morning when Aidan found one of &#160;The WGCCM 3000his past projects and then decided he wanted a challenge.

The cover of the book has been sitting in the &#8220;Good Reads&#8221; (formerly &#8220;Now Reading&#8221;) area of this blog for nearly a year, so I figured I should drop a few thoughts on the book and rotate the cover [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Stumbling through the Internet today while I should have been focused on other things, I discovered the music of Jes Karper and his string-pluckin&#8217; conscious poetry. It&#8217;s great uplifting stuff that offers some clarity and perspective on what&#8217;s important in life. The first song I heard of his is called &#8220;Try On Life,&#8221; which to [...]]]></description>
