On a roll since June 22nd!!!


Wow! I have stuck with this 30-day challenge since June 22nd! According to my calculator-like brain, that means this should be the 17th consecutive day of blogging! And the amazing thing is that each and every entry has been incredibly worthwhile - both in terms of you reading it and me writing it. Time well spent for everyone!!

Just watched an excellent movie with my dad - "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" starring Paul Newman and Robert Redford. I really like Paul Newman, always have, but I haven't seen too many Redford movies. Let me say this about his performance as the Sundance Kid: I bought it ONE HUNDRED percent! You look at him in that movie and you think you are staring at a real cowboy! What a great job! Newman was wonderful too, playing it relatively light-hearted which makes the famous ending even more emotional when it comes. I liked it a lot. We are recently on a roll with great movies having seen "Glengarry Glen Ross", "Bonnie and Clyde", and now "BC&tSK."

The big news today is the invite I received to a sneak of the summer's biggest movie, "The Dark Knight." Thanks to my buddy Doug, it sounds like I'll get to see it at the IMAX theatre next Tuesday night. I am soooooooooooooo psyched!!!

We are now officially on Batman Countdown!!

Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid is one of my favorite childhood memories, watching it with my dad and sister one night...

One of the first movies I ever saw in a theatre was "THE STING" with my mom one matinee, and one of the first 45s I ever bought was Marvin Hamlich's "Theme From The Sting", which I still have floating around here somewhere...

Um that's all I got.

"The Sting" is an awesome movie too! I watched it with my dad a few months ago and really enjoyed it. I think "Butch" and "The Sting" may be the extent of my Robert Redford movie knowledge, but I do think he's great.

Oh wait - was he in "All the President's Men?" I saw that...
