Don't know if that is your thing or not. COD is just your typical first person shooter, and is primarily an online multi player game. The single player experience is quite short.<br /><br />No idea on the first one.Unknownsailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10384464603647986681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-26206803760560832522014-12-07T12:01:12.730-05:002014-12-07T12:01:12.730-05:00I never presume to second-guess you, Fran, but bec...I never presume to second-guess you, Fran, but because it's Sunday, December 7th, or maybe because I've been up for 36 hours, this time I will.<br /><br />A little.<br /><br />Repentance: In a nutshell, we don't (maybe can't) repent while we're doing that of which we should repent. Repentance, regret - reflection itself - require a pause to look back. The earlier we are blessed with that moment to get out of our present selves, maybe the better. I think we know at a VERY young age not to steal, cheat, lie, and all. Then we get caught up in "stuff." When we're in our teens and 20s (and older) the immediacy of so many things engages us (usually) more than the "philosophical sophistries" of "theoretical" right and wrong. . . that moral relevancy thing. But we KNEW it all along. Repentance is rememberance of what we knew was right but did wrong.<br /><br />Finest actor of our time? I'm always amazed to find - usually well into the movie - that I'm watching Charlize Theron. Her depth and range are - to me - incredible. I'm not crazy about ANY film she's been in, but I'm very impressed by her talent to BE in any role she plays.<br /><br />Recommendations: Beethoven's 7th, 5th or 9th. Any good Christmas album you grew up with that you can talk to your child or others about and relate memories of tradition, a "secular holiday" with a religious meaning, or just that special feeling of something that transcended "critical analysis."
