Stuff to Remember (from "Have a Little Faith"

The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice within.
                           Mohandas Gandhi


I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all She had to say.

I walked a mile with Sorrow,
And ne'er a word said She;
But, oh! The things I learned
from her,
When Sorrow walked with me.

"god bless america"

Just finished watching this quirky movie and loved it.
(Art imitates life and furnishes a release for emotions that we don't have to act on ourselves!)
God, I hate where the exclamation point is on the keyboard! I really want to shoot it!!!!!!!!

"The Medussa Touch"

Okay, I just saw this old movie late one night recently. Did anyone else wonder if Bin Laden saw this movie and if this is where he got the idea for the attack on the twin towers? The sight of the plane flying into the apartment building was, to say the least, eerie. Also, the matching towers at the Bristol Cathedral where the final scene is done (evil collapsing the church), took me further down the path of life imitating art.
Not a great movie, but I did think that Richard Burton did a fine acting job.
