Coincidence? I think not

First things first. Sorry for the long absence. I’ve had stuff going on, sort of…

On the way home from XStream tonight I asked my friend Kimmy to name her favorite movie. She replied without hesitation: “Pride and Prejudice or Sense and Sensibility.” Then she launched into favorites by category.

I don’t know if it’s a genetic defect, or if it’s just me, but I have a hard time choosing one favorite. I know that by strict definition, a person can truly have but one favorite. There are so many options that play into the mix. Plot, actors, genre, people I watched the movie with…my brother-in-law and I watched Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure every day one summer…

But tonight, as I turned on the tube to relax, I heard the line: “His brain, your strength, my steel…” Yep, The Princess Bride–one of my favorite movies.

“Has it got any sports in it?”
“Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles… “

And Billy Crystal is hilarious. I hate the fact that I missed the swordfight scene.

Good stuff.
