Over the course of a few nights my son and I managed to watch "Pulp Fiction" on Netflix. I have to say, that movie really held up. It was on the "bucket list" movie poster I gave him for his birthday, and I'm glad for the opportunity. He said a few times how good he thought it was. I couldn't help but notice how things have worked out for some of the people who made it or starred in it. Getting old!

rand()m quote

In the wake of 9/11, we [in America] have made the decision as a society that we can never again create something in which we can take pride, for fear that someone will destroy it. Moreover, we must suppress any trace of individualism, lest someone have the desire to rise above the bland sameness that protects us. I have, alas, no idea how to recapture our courage.
