Some pictures are simple and easy to interpret. For example, the following picture is simply a photograph of a freshly mown lawn.

But they say a picture is worth a thousand words, and this picture isn’t any different. I’ll share 199 of the 1000 words associated with that picture:

As I got ready to mow the lawn today, it was sunny and warm. If you know me, you know that I hate the sun and I hate hot weather, but I had to mow the lawn anyway because it was getting long, and if I waited any longer, it would start clumping up and it would be even harder to mow later.

About halfway through the backyard, large storm clouds started rolling in. The sun was completely blocked, so I felt a little better knowing that I was no longer being cooked alive and no longer absorbing skin cancer.

But, the storm clouds got bigger and bigger, and it got darker and darker. Small raindrops started to fall, and my hair and shoulders began to get moist. Trying to finish quicker, I pushed the lawn mower, urging it to run faster.

About five minutes before I finished, the raindrops got larger and the rain became heavier. I pushed the lawn mower ahead harder and harder, trying to finish as quickly as possible.

About five minutes after I finished, it stopped raining.

The worst part is that this is the second time this has happened to me this summer.

What I’m Watching

A friend named Chris Puenner suggested to me that I watch Digimon: The Movie. Following his recom­mendation, I watched it yesterday.

Digimon: The Movie follows two characters named Tai and Kari from their childhood and explains how their lives suddenly changed one day after being selected as DigiDestined. After illustrating the growth of Tai and Kari and their new connection with the Digital World, the plot enters the main conflict of the movie where a virus is attacking the entire planet’s technology system and the DigiDestined must use their Digimon to enter the internet and stop the virus from consuming all the data. This isn’t as easy as the DigiDestined thought, however, as the virus Digivolves into a more powerful monster and becomes more destructive by the second.

I watched Digimon for a short while back in 1999 when it first came out on Fox Kids. I always considered Pokémon to be the better “mon,” but Digimon still had some uniqueness to it, and the fact that the creatures could change back and forth from stage to stage intrigued and appealed to me. Watching this movie about ten years after I stopped watching Digimon regularly brought back memories of the show long ago, and I actually remembered things that happened back then in the television series.

Obviously, this is a kids movie, and young children are going to enjoy this more than people who have grown out of watching cartoons. However, if you have ever watched the Digimon television series in the past and have not see this movie, it’s highly recommended as it shows some past history of the char­acters not covered in the television series. Although it isn’t one of my top-pick movies, the fact that it brought nostalgic feelings of a good chlidhood made it leave a positive impression on me.
