The whole story of redemption and friendship was very good. I liked the barber shop scenes and Clint did have some funny lines. Great ending. It was definitely a thinking movie. <br /><br />Did any of you see UP? I took Sharon to see it yesterday. I liked it a lot. The theme of the old man fulfilling his wife's dream was so sweet. It is cool that animation movies have such good stuff in them.Neanershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07683026642881739985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574902894146998478.post-13794943394389903612009-07-24T19:04:25.988-06:002009-07-24T19:04:25.988-06:00I hope there's a Friday hint coming soon...I&#...I hope there's a Friday hint coming soon...I'm struggling here.Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03830410781129496175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574902894146998478.post-22681633880119311452009-07-24T19:02:52.238-06:002009-07-24T19:02:52.238-06:00Hey Dad, what channel is playing No Country for Ol...Hey Dad, what channel is playing No Country for Old Men?

The bit part acting was pretty bad, but I thought it made the movie more human and beleveable and even cute. Mayor Eastwood is the man! I saw the last 20 minutes of "No country for Old Men" last night on cable. Tommy Lee Jones has that special old man charm that Clint has. Different, but good. Let's hear it for us old guys!!!!Popshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03345516809265073813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574902894146998478.post-59942348658104605842009-07-24T12:03:02.000-06:002009-07-24T12:03:02.000-06:00Dan, B kinda wondered that too.

Not many vehicles around with those any more! <br /><br />I remember a ton of bits from that tape. My favorite is the one about his going to heaven only to be turned away for cussing (which of course has some cussing in it so I can't repeat any of it here), his happy feet stuff, his bit on geting pulled over by the cops when you're really small and then them having a balloon you crawl into to prove you're small, about throwing poop on the person's shoes you're breaking up with, along with the "blue spot" and excuuuse me stuff. Can't remember, is King Tut on that tape, too? I remember he does some banjo stuff but can't remember what other music might be on it...<br /><br />Definitely a fun tape from a great time in my life! Wonder if I can download it on iTunes. I'm gonna go check!Dan Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13158682872252632688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574902894146998478.post-75892277576128526472009-07-24T09:26:59.245-06:002009-07-24T09:26:59.245-06:00ps we also laughed at many of Clint's lines. ...ps we also laughed at many of Clint's lines.

Rob really liked the concept, the story, the ending, and Eastwood, but found the rest of the actor's acting intolerable to the point of ruining it significantly for him.<br />The supporting cast really was quite bad especially the leader of the gang, the next door girl and boy were bad too, but so likable I didn't let it ruin it for me. Rob is not so tolerant about acting.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835924016744040120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574902894146998478.post-14842218242338570392009-07-23T21:41:50.687-06:002009-07-23T21:41:50.687-06:00Sue, Your trip to Lagoon sounds neat and it is the...Sue, Your trip to Lagoon sounds neat and it is the best ever when the lines are short and the crowds are small.

IT WAS THE BEST DAY AT LAGOON EVER! Nobody was there. The longest line we stood in was no more than 10 minutes tops. We got to ride each ride several times. Example, Wild Mouse 12 times, Spider 8 times. Booker was an absolute joy as always. Two of Cam's sisters and two of his nephews, that are around Booker's age, came with us. We all had a great time and Booker became fast friends with the nephews. And Wicked is the best roller coaster ever! We rode that 5 or 6 times. <br /><br />Pictures will be posted soon. Cam's sister, Kristin, is the photographer. You may remember her, she was the photographer at our wedding. She took some great action shots. She is going to email them to me soon.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00758354440910012121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574902894146998478.post-14073179242744956712009-07-22T07:05:51.812-06:002009-07-22T07:05:51.812-06:00George, your mention of Steve Martin reminded me a...George, your mention of Steve Martin reminded me about how his Let's Get Small album (cassette tape) was all the rage while I was living with you guys.
