I've been driving through a lot more rural areas lately (to track meets, baseball games, and garage sales). One thing I've noticed is there are many people not mowing their lawns. I've been wondering why that may be occurring (environmental concerns, inability to afford a mower, or high gas prices)?

WTH?

Caught a nice mess of bluegill this morning. Nice day on the boat with my dad and middle son.

I was a block from my house tonight on my walk with my dog. A van was accelerating toward the stop sign of the corner I was actively crossing. I realized they weren't stopping and pulled my dog through quickly. Driver suddenly slammed on the brakes, rolled his window down and apologized profusely.

OMG.

Watched this earlier. It's rated pretty high on IMDb. There are some interesting discussions and dialog if you like philosophy and religion. Acting is strong in some parts but cheesy in others. The story and overall theme is pretty intriguing. Could be a stage play. 7/10

This weekend's classic movie that I'd never seen was "The Seventh Seal" by Ingmar Bergman. I can see how it was considered innovative and influential for it's time. It just doesn't hold up very well and as a result, I'm not even sure how I feel about it yet.

I'm officially on vacation and hope to accomplish a lot of things around the house, but I also plan to watch a few great movies. Got any suggestions? I'd really like recommendations on underappreciated or lesser known, hidden gems.

There's a survey going around our community about another potential school millage for various improvements. It's anecdotal, but the majority of who I hear talking about it are against it. Their primary reason? They don't have kids in school anymore. This is why we can't have nice things. Literally.

I now start from the assumption that anything I read or hear is a lie and any photo or video I see on a screen is fake - until I gather sufficient (multiple credible sources) corroborating evidence to the contrary. Sad that this is where we are today.

This weekend's classic movie that I've never seen was "Heat" by Michael Mann. What a star-studded film. Both the acting & the action were great. Despite being nearly 3 hours, it didn't feel like it. One thing about this movie that stuck out to me was the sound design, especially the gunshots. 8/10

Got a call on my way home from work that our 18 year old Kitty took a turn for the worse tonight. We had to take final trip to the vet. She was diagnosed w/ terminal cancer back in November so it was expected. My heart breaks for my son who was her best friend. Rest in peace Izzy. 😓

Have you seen the cute Disney Cruise commercial where the dad takes the child for a nightly walk around the ship over many years?

Just saw "The Sheep Detectives" with the family. Pretty cute and entertaining movie for everyone.

Rewatching the original Indiana Jones trilogy. They are such great movies that still hold up relatively well. For being roughly 2 hours long, they sure fly by. I really love the practical effects and Spielberg's use of light and shadows. The influence of George Lucas is quite evident, too.

Buttigieg on Duffy: "I love roadtrips. I love America. I actually took a taxpayer-funded roadtrip lasted about 7 months. It was in Afghanistan. This is something very different.
