Best Festivus gift ever
My GF was VERY generous this year, all kinds of stuff (including one of
them newfangled IPod thingys, which I'm a little apprehensive of.) My favorite, however, was the DVD of "Breaking Away". Uncorked some vino, dropped the DVD in the carriage, and watched. I developed a lump in my throat that would have strangled me had the movie lasted another 5 minutes. One of the last scenes, where Cyril is looking around.... I can't take it. Hooks me right in the gut every time. Took everything I had to not bawl my eyes out. I haven't even hit the extra DVD gimmicks yet. /s I can't TAKE it! |

Scott Said: "Breaking Away is awesome"
That's not the first review of this movie I've heard, but it sounds just like the last one did. I think you just dropped that proverbial straw onto my procrastinating camel. I've got a gift card to burn, and there's a mall on my way home. If I can find it I think I'll buy it. Headed to a friend's camp through the New Year, so I may not get a chance to see it until next week. I've got to see if he's really on the small ring during that draft anyway. |

I almost took a huge header over the side on my motorcycle rght where Kevin Costner almost did in the flick on the "Tour of The Moon". The RD version was that it was early AM and I was riding down from a g/f's place after spending the night and not sleeping much. "Another schnitzengruben? Baby, I am not from Havana, 15 is my limit." JD toured the Moon on a cruiser bike and passed GRSs |

I've swam in that quarry (Icebox Quarry near Bloomington). Matt |
