Two Thoughts

Wow. I have two things on the brain. I am hoping that if I push them off on you all, then I can get back to doing the things I'm supposed to be doing.

1) So I went and saw HARRY POTTER - GOBLET OF FIRE this weekend. I really enjoyed it, for many reasons. It tickled me to watch. It made me sad thinking about the misfortunes of youth, but offers hope of loyalty. There was a lot missing from the books (If you're readers), and some of the details I was looking for were missing, but if taking the movie for the movie's sake only - Thumbs up.

Yes. I know. You were ALL waiting for my approval, but, there you have it. Go watch the movie.

2) I have a long standing fascination with Dolph Lundgren. I guess, back in my own days of teenage hormones I fell in love with him from Rocky, and I just never lost my thing for him. As a matter of fact, tho his movies aren't necessarily run of the mill Hollywood, I have a huge collection of them, because he's in them and I like those kind of action movies. HOLLYWOOD give him a bigger chance! I demand. Well, if you are a fan too check out his website (great pictures) He maintains it himself and it's cool http://www.dolphlundgren.com/

Later

A Wee Bit Of A Rant

I suppose ranting is socially unacceptable when you are as infrequent of a blogger as myself, but...

How is it possible that the man in the grocery store, the man who pays for his purchase with coupons and pennies has the nerve to look at me with disgust for purchasing mega-power-Midol. I'm thinking he should be getting a clue!

Second thing I'm intrigued about. Had a conversation with a dear friend last night. He's a male I totally trust ( there better not be one comment about that), he and I were talking about the stereotyping and attitude toward dating older or younger persons. Somehow it's totally okay for an older man to date a WAY younger woman, but that is not true conversly. Can ANYONE tell me why? Technically, we've all learned that men reach their sexual peak earlier in life and women later, so it would stand to reason that a woman should for the sake of keeping everyone happy and lovingly involved date or marry a younger man.

The Leauge

And this is just the middleish post today-I promise to have a bit of a personal post in a moment (I know - you all were just on the edge of your seat for that)! But I have recently become a part of another group as well...I know I know...what a little joiner.
