Wow. My first post. A few buisness items first. One, I really am trying to be a better person. I've tried to quit complaining many times in my life. But I've found that the bottom line is that whining really brings me joy. Plain and simple. But I figure this way, I'm not doing it in person - so that makes it less of a downer for everyone around me. Two, thanks to my beautiful wife who helped me set this up. However, she said it would be quick and easy, but that was about 3 hours and a bazillion templates ago.



I thought I would start off with something gentle. Once in a while Jenny and I try and be much more cultured than we really are and rent a "classic" movie. You know, one of those older movies that everyone seems to know or use as examples of ethical dilemas in college english papers. Anyways, our latest venture was Dr. Zhivago - a gripping tale of...well...um...Russian something or other. Seriously people. What the crap was that movie even about? (That 2 disc movie, I might add.)


Now before everyone writes and flames me for having no class, realize that I tried. I really did. I watched the entire movie, hoping that some kind of cohesive plot would emerge, but I was only to be disappointed. And cold. Just watching that movie made me freezing.


Anybody else got any other "classic" movies that we should cross off our lists now? Now yesterday I tried to watch a true holiday classic - Gremlins. With a special encoure TNT presentation of Gremlins 2:The New Batch. But this was vetoed by Jenny, who said it didn't put her "in the holiday spirit." Whatever.
