I like to watch movies, not at the theater, they are communist charging way to much money, but on the tele via, Netflix, HBO, Showtime, etc…

I love to watch the old movies, the ones as a child if I was forced to watch I would pull my hair out. I also like new and all in between. I do have my favorites however.

Now whether or not it’s a Virgo thing I don’t know, what I do know is it’s weird to others, especially my wife, but she overlooks it. (That’s love)

I will watch a movie over and over again, sometimes all at once, but mostly over time.

When Braveheart came out, and before Mel flaked out, I watched this movie over and over 15 times in two weeks.

The Shawshank Redemption came out in 1994, I have seen it over 100 times and would watch it tonight if it were on.

The Perfect Storm, 32 times

The Hunt for Red October, 21 times

These and many more movies I will watch over and over again, I have ordered series that I have watched as a kid, to just see them again like, Gilligan’s Island, Mash, Chips, Adam 12, Emergency, Etc…

It’s not that I think there might be a different ending, it’s more that every time I watch it I see something I had not seen before, sometimes I catch an editing error, or a costume mistake, sometimes it’s just something else happening in the background.

I think because there is all this “new” undiscovered stuff, I will watch it over and over till I’m convinced I’ve seen it all, and going back over movies and shows you watched as a kid is a blast because you have to ask yourself, “was I really that intrigued with this show,? and if so, why?”

I know some of you out there do not watch T.V. and for the life of me I’d rather be struck dead, but you do read books, and I’m sure their must be a few of you that will read a book over and still come across a line you did not remember from the first read.

I love the study of humans, I like to see how they act, respond, inter-relate, and communicate with one another, so whether it’s in public or on T.V. I enjoy it, and whether it’s real or made up, I will watch it.

People are the only animal on this planet that are un-predictable, I have no idea how any of you will respond to the following joke, but it would be interesting to know……..

More to come next time….

Hints, tips, and whatever:

A man walks into a bar, notices a very large jar on the counter, and sees that it’s filled to the brim with $10 bills. He guesses there must be at least ten thousand dollars in it. He approaches the bartender and asks, “What’s with the money in the jar?”

“Well…, you pay $10, and if you pass three tests, you get all the money in the jar and the keys to a brand new Lexus.”

The man certainly isn’t going to pass this up, so he asks, “What are the three tests?”

“You gotta pay first,” says the bartender, “those are the rules.”

So, after thinking it over a while, the man gives the bartender $10 which he stuffs into the jar.

“Okay,” says the bartender, “here’s what you need to do:”

First – You have to drink a whole quart of tequila, in 60 seconds or less, and you can’t make a face while doing it.

Second – There’s a pit bull chained in the back with a bad tooth. You have to remove that tooth with your bare hands.

Third – There’s a 90-year old lady upstairs who’s never had sex. You have to take care of that problem.”

The man is stunned! “I know I paid my $10 — but I’m not an idiot! I won’t do it! You’d have to be nuts to drink a quart of tequila and then do all those other things!”

“Your call,” says the bartender, “but,
your money stays where it is.”

As time goes on, the man has a few more drinks and finally says, “Where’s the damn tequila?!”

He grabs the bottle with both hands and drinks it as fast as he can. Tears stream down both cheeks — but he doesn’t make a face — and he drinks it in 58 seconds!

Next, he staggers out the back door where he sees the pit bull chained to a pole. Soon, the people inside the bar hear loud growling, screaming, and sounds of a terrible fight — then nothing but silence!

Just when they think that the man surely must be dead, he staggers back into the bar. His clothes are ripped to shreds and he’s bleeding from bites and gashes all over his body. He drunkenly says, “Now…, where’s that old woman with the bad tooth?”
