It Is Important In Life …

… essential … to recognize not just the larger blessings, but the smaller ones as well.

I am having such a moment right now.

    I love how they send those, like little birth announcements or something. I got one just today, too: “The Netflix stork is bringing you …. Mad Men!”

    Congratulations on your arrival!

    Bren – I have such a vivid memory of you telling me about that moment and the two of us guffawing with laughter in the dining room.

  4. brendan says:

    wait until you see it. that whole movie is so amazing. the INTENSE acting that both of them are doing. like, they are TEARING up the screen in the STUPIDEST movie of ALL TIME.

    so much fun.

    no way this movie gets made today. NONE.

  5. red says:

    Bren – hahahahaha I love talking to you about movies. It’s the best thing ever.

    I really hope you are going to post your thoughts about this movie once you’ve seen it. I had to double check, but yep, this is the one that prompted me to vow to never again see a movie written by a man with three first names.

  7. red says:

    Dave – hahahahahahahaha I’m dying!!!! I didn’t even know who wrote it but I just checked it on IMDB and now I can’t stop laughing!!

    I’m working on something big about Mickey Rourke – it will go live next week.

  8. red says:

    Still howling about the three first names thing.

    That really hit my funny bone.

  9. Dave E. says:

    It’s been a while so I’d have to see the first fifteen minutes again, but I bet I could create a simple three-rule drinking game for this movie that would kill an ordinary man.

  10. red says:

    I can’t wait!!!

    Time for a reality check, Sheila: 491 movies in your queue! Actually, I’d expect no less from you; your regular readers know that to call you a multitasker does disservice to the English language.

    Question: Do 491 little blessings in toto represent something larger?

    Enjoy the movie. I just rewatched “Rumble Fish” the other night. Motorcycle Boy reigns!

  12. red says:

    Is 491 a lot??? I don’t know how other people do Netflix. Is it too much?? They won’t let me put any more on! The problem is I get obsessed with one person and then have to see everthing they do IMMEDIATELY so all the other movies get continuously bumped down! It’s a problem!

  13. Bud says:

    You obsessive? N-O-O-O!

    Didn’t know there was a limit. I cut Netflix loose a couple of years ago because of their practice of “throttling” (i.e., the faster you return movies, the longer and longer you have to wait for new ones).

  14. DBW says:

    “Is 491 a lot???” Too funny. Not if you are planning to watch 8-9 movies every day for the next 2 months. In that case, you will need more in your queue around Feb 4th. OTOH, your regular Joe wouldn’t have to pick another movie for 9-10 years. That is, if he watched a rented movie every week. My wife gets disconcerted if I put more than 20 on our list. I love that you have 491 movies in your queue. I might have guessed 125, but I should have known better.

  15. red says:

    DBW – hahahahahaha I love it. 20 movies in the queue?? I would freak!

    See what happens is – I have every Fellini movie in there, I have all of Freaks and Geeks in there, I have little-known James Cagney movies – stuff I know I will not remember that I need to see someday so … I guess the queue is a reminder. At least they don’t charge me for the storage space!!

  16. DBW says:

    Well, my wife’s concerns about our Netflix list actually initiates a little subterfuge on my part. I have a…ahem…private list. If I am reading, say, a favorite blogger who has an almost encyclopedic memory when it comes to film, and said person mentions a movie that sounds interesting-or one I have forgotten about, and would like to see again-then I write the title down on a pad I keep in my desk at home. My wife’s problems with the list stem from an experience where we got about 30 movies in a row that I was dying to see, but neither she nor my son had any interest in them. I think she got tired of subtitles–LOL.

    491?

    And here I was feeling like I was overdoing the Netflix thing by having 217 films in my queue….
