"Let's keep goin'"
Annie and I went to see Thelma and Louise tonight. Same place we saw Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid back in January. Apparently, we can only go to that theater to see buddy movies where the anti-heroes die and we cry at the end ( Read more... ) -
"Think ya used enough dynamite there, Butch?"
Last night, Annie and I went to see a special viewing of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in Paducah. I've seen it a million times, but never on the big screen, so I convinced her to go with me. She hadn't seen it since our college days (so quite a long time ago), and, to be honest, I hadn't seen the second half of the movie in years ( Read more... ) -
ticka-ticka-ticka-ticka-ticka...ticka?
It's been two weeks since I almost died. No, really almost died. No exaggerating, no embellishing...almost...died.
My heart started beating at around 220 beats per minute somewhere around 2:00 a.m. I knew instantly that it was either my tachycardia or Vincent D'Onofrio's acting on the Law and Order: Criminal Intent marathon that had been on for ( Read more... ) -
Would you like some cheese with that whine?
I have to get this out of my system. I am so fucking tired of being ill that I want to scream. My Interstital Cystitis is kicking my ass, and my life is suffering for it. It hurts too much to go to work. It hurts too much to go have fun. It hurts too much to think. And it's not going anywhere ( Read more... ) -
The Summer of Max (End)
Mad Max was back in theaters this week, exclusively in IMAX 3D. I went yet one more time (twenty-four) to see it. Sure, it was after a doctor's appointment where I had a 'bladder installation', but at least it was one more time to ride with the War Rig on the big screen. Chesterfield has a Wehrenberg theater that boasts a MEGAscreen (three and a ( Read more... ) -
The Summer of Max (continued)
Thursday afternoon was the final showing of Mad Max:Fury Road at the cheap theater. I drove up to see it on a big screen one more time, and I didn't care that it was yet another two hours on the road. As I was driving west on the interstate, I kept seeing street rods heading east. One after another. Chevys, Fords, roadsters, and coupes. Then I ( Read more... ) -
The Summer of Max
This was the summer of Max.
I have seen Mad Max: Fury Road a total of twenty-one twenty-two times at the local theaters. I'm coming out of five years of debilitating illness (a combo of Crohn's and Interstitial Cystitis) that left me unable to do activities that were physically difficult. You know, like walking and stuff ( Read more... ) -
Random things...
Mad Max:Fury Road may be the best action film I've ever seen. Thanks, George Miller for writing Furiosa -- she's in the same league with Ripley ( Read more... ) -
As good a place as any...
While it's apparent that LiveJournal has turned into a large empty pit, this seems like as good a place as any to start writing again...slowly...we wouldn't want anyone to get hurt by just jumping in and rattling off a good story or two ( Read more... ) -
Hey...this thing is still here...how about that!
Wow. How does this thing work again?
After almost three years of major health problems, I'm almost back to the land of the living -- and writing. In the meantime, I'm off to sleep before it's officially Christmas. My gift to myself this year is finding the keyboard again. :)
