Possible End of an Era


Well I'm almost broken hearted tonight. Saints beat my boy Favre and the Vikings. No I am not a big Vikings fan. I am a Favre / Pakers fan who just couldn't stop pulling for Favre when he went to Jets or to the Vikings. The game was tight scoring but stupid mistakes is what wound up costing the Vikings the game. Several fumbles and an interception sealed it at the end. My hats off to the Saints for getting the win. I have a feeling this was the last game for Favre. I would almost bet he will call it quits now. He took a lot of hits this season and especially in the Play Offs. I just don't think his body could take another year. If so I will be pulling for him but I honestly don't want to see the guy hurt. He has given me years of enjoyment and hope he can enjoy a long life after the NFL. So if tonight was Brett Favre's last game then I congratulate him on a long and successful career in which he has thrilled millions. I don't think there has or ever will be as fun a quarterback as Brett Favre. He has enjoyed the game as much if not more than I have enjoyed watching him play.

Movie Review: Avatar 3D


Let me first tell you Avatar is the first 3D movie I have seen since the early 80's when I was a kid. If any of you remember those goofy cardboard glasses with one side red and one side blue. I will say this, 3D movies have come a long long long way. I could not believe the 3D movie experience. I am sure this would make practically any movie a ton better but when you have a great movie like Avatar and toss in the 3D version you have an epic movie. Great story line, great acting, the best special effects and CG I have seen in a movie yet. The action was almost non stop in this movie which helps to keep your attention because its not a short movie. It is right at 3 hours play time. I suggest not drinking too much soft drink at the beginning of this movie so you don't have to duck out in the middle of a great scene. This is a definite for any Sci-Fi or action movie lover. Please don't see this movie in a regular theater though. You really should pay the extra $3.00 for the 3D glasses and see in 3D only. No these are not the old cheapo glasses these are a nice hard plastic pair that will make you not as embarrassed to wear. This is a movie I plan on going back to the theater to watch again, as well as purchase the DVD to add to my collection. So go out and see this great movie and tell your friends about it. Hopefully if it does great enough at the Box Office we can get more great movies like it in the future.

Pest Control for South Carolina

I recently ran into an old friend at my nephew's Christmas program for school. While we were talking, the subject of employment came up. I was currently unemployed and had been for almost 3 months. I was working a high stress fast paced job that was starting to really get to me, mentally and physically. I left this job voluntarily which I will admit was not the best idea I have ever had. My old friend told me he was looking for a dispatcher for his Pest Control Company. Well I have been in dispatch and Operations for the trucking industry for almost 16 years so this was very similar to my old line of work but in a whole new industry. I am now happily employed at Walker Pest Management based in Travelers Rest SC. We have several technicians dedicated to there local routes. We service Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson, Taylors, Greer, Duncan, Pickens, Easley, Simpsonville, Piedmont, Mauldin and surrounding upstate SC. The technicians are all trained and certified and all take courses every year to keep learning about this field. What I have learned is there is a lot of information you need to know to do this job correctly. So if you ever need a Quality Local Pest Control Service just visit Walker Pest Managemetn online and give us a call. We will treat your home or business like they were our own. And when you call you will probably get me on the other end of the phone.

Whats Happening In Mack's World

If you haven't figured it out my name is Mack. No its not my real name but its the name that anyone who knows me online knows me by. My real name is Josh McCall. I live in Greer, SC. I am married to a wonderful woman who has put up with me now for almost 16 years. This is my first blog site and this is just a short introductory into my life and who I am. I am what is commonly referred to as an Online Gamer. I have been playing games online now for 17 years. My wife may call it an addiction. I call it fun and safe. There are a lot of other things I could be into after all. If you think about it, its actually a pretty cheap hobby as well. Much cheaper than say yachting or even golf when you add up the cost of clubs and greens fees. I work for a company called Walker Pest Management where I am a Dispatcher / IT guy. If you live in upstate South Carolina give them a call they have great service and great employees (wink!). Well that's enough about me for now. I will give you more later.
