I suppose I really shouldn't count "Song of the South," simply because all I HAVE seen of it are the animated portions - I've only seen brief clips of the live action stuff. It's not an easy movie to find... And of all the mediocre movies here I've seen, I note the only one I really HATED was "The Black Cauldron." So much it's the only Disney movie I don't own.
On Wednesday I realized that I am, indeed, nearly 45 years old. We had an Easter egg scavenger hunt/race in our department, which required running all over two buildings to all our units, and my team consisted of two 21-year-olds, a 23-year-old, and me. I hurt my hip. My massage therapist took care of it today. I'm glad I keep myself in shape!
