Dispatch 7/15/11

7:58 A.M.  Still in bed on a peaceful Friday morning.  This past week has been interesting.  Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 came out in movie theaters.  I believe that is the last Harry Potter movie.  I have not seen any HP movies since the second one, so I'll rely on reviews before I actually catch this flick.  The first book was published way back in 1996.  15 years later, the final movie hits theaters.  The British Open is under way, but Kansas City legend Tom Watson is tied for 59th place heading into the second day.

The FBI opened an investigation into whether Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation attempted to hack into the telephones of victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks.  I wonder what will happen if the allegations are proven true.  The government shutdown in Minnesota is expected to end very soon.  Democrat Governor Mark Dayton and the Republican legislature have reached a compromise on the state's budget gap.  A documentary called "The Undefeated" about the rise of Sarah Palin into national politics premiered in the last couple weeks, but it is only showing at a select few AMC theaters.  I'd be interested to see the hatemongering Sarah Palin had to endure.  I'd be willing to bet Tina Fey's impersonations of Ms. Palin on Saturday Night Live barely scratch the surface of the pop culture beat down of the former Vice Presidential candidate.  California governor Jerry Brown signed a bill requiring public schools in the state to teach students about the historical contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans.

I've been thinking about expanding Joe's Musings into a couple more realms.  The possibility of podcasts, radio shows, and Youtube videos are all ideas I have considered.  There's nothing wrong with the blog, but I'd like to expand into different forms of media.  I'll keep you posted if I make a decision regarding this.

Thanks for reading,

Joe Viviano
