Jaws

This was on Cheezburger today. Cracked me right the heck up, Jaws is one of my favorite movies, for the humor of it actually.

I will never forget seeing it in the theater when I was a kid. The theater was packed and my sister and I had to sit on one of the benches in the back, because we didn't get in until right when it was starting. I can still remember the entire theater erupting in screams when Ben Gardner's head pops out of the wrecked boat.

As an adult, I love the scene on the boat when Quint, Brody and Hooper are comparing wounds and "war" stories - right before the shark attacks again.

The Princess Bride

Okay, so most people that know me, know I am a big movie buff, and that I'm pretty geeky to boot. And one of my all-time favorite movies is "The Princess Bride". Somewhere in the last year I got the idea in my head that we should have a Princess Bride Day that is along the lines of "Talk Like a Pirate Day", which is September 19th. A day where everyone can have fun and quote their favorite lines from the movie. "Anybody want a peanut?"

I chose September 25th, because according to the official Prince Bride website, and Wikipedia, this is the day that the movie premiered, specifically back in 1987. And since I'm not on Facebook, I'm on Blogger, I decided to get started spreading the word here. I'm also having fun with a DVD give-away every day this coming week at work, where I know that most of my co-workers think I'm a goofball, but what the heck, life is short.

So if you are similarly inspired, have fun storming the castle with Fezzik, Buttercup, Westley and Inigo Montoya. They're the next best thing to a nice M.L.T. - Mutton Lettuce and Tomato, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomatoes are ripe.....they're so perky, I love that!

September Summer

Woody

Woody & Munchkin

 The deer have been around again a lot this summer, and I really enjoy that. Boo still usually hides under the deck when they are around. Last night right before dusk I saw the two fawns heading over to Dave's backyard, the doe must have been ahead of them, because I never saw her.

And my little buddy Munchkin just couldn't resist these nice clean sheets.

When the sun came out and it started to warm up today, the deck was still too damp for the cats to lay on, so Tommy and Munchkin improvised.















Woody found his own spot in the sun. After all of our rain this week that seemed like we were jumping right into fall, I'm glad that it is getting sunny and warmer again. It's supposed to be nice all week and I am definitely looking forward to it.
