BINGO!! I figured out my problem
first: I was using the wrong logger I was using the ethernet shield SD card slot
not the open log apparently there IS a difference
second: If i'm correct open log finds and reads automatic from any analog port
the rx and tx is used to READ data from the analog ports so I never needed the open log to
read ports A4 A5
Sounds like the device is using I2C to communicate with the Arduino - thus the A4/A5 pins.
looks that way the open log reads from all analog ports any way so I never needed any special code to read the 9dof sensor stick then I just need openlog to record everything to the uSD card which is 16 GB
but if I remember correctly the older versions of the code can only log data at 2 GB which is ok I have one anyway so now my question is is there an openlog sketch out there that logs data as long as the arduino is powered?
BINGO!! I think I got it!
but I need an expert opinion

It looks ok but still there is possibility I made a mistake
my hardware is an arduino pro mini 5v sparkfun 9 dof sensor stick and a open log
my goal is simply to log the data from the sensor stick without the serial monitor
while having the setup to record the data
darn not quite I'm getting a not in sync error resp 0=0x00
protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x51
something like that I believe there is a simple fix but I cannot remember where
so i'm asking once again for help on the matter
Nevermind it works A ok 8)

but keep in mind to use this the arduino must power up "first" once done add the micro sd card
or a reset button must be in place to reset if in enclosed designs
