Attila the Hun

The other night we had to run to Fort Wayne, my bride received a gift card from Fashion Bug, it was burning a hole in her purse!

Having no desire to spend several hours answering that famous question "Does this make me look fat" I opted to peruse the isles of Barnes and Nobel. As I entered I noticed the huge "CLEARANCE" signs hanging through out the store.

Finding a "clearance" table I began my quest for that golden gem that I knew lay hidden amongst that massive mess! But to my dismay was not to be found... until...

Laying on the bottom, hidden beneath a pile of last years gaudy Christmas cards, cover wrinkled, spine broken, and a large round red sticker, symbolizing a bargain price of $2.00!

"The Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun", off with their heads, drag my staff around the church with my horse (truck), burn them with a red hot iron, etc... my thoughts ran wild, this might be my kind of leadership! I'll get them to follow or go to jail trying!

OK, that's not really what I thought, but the leadership of Attila the Hun does begin to make you wonder, doesn't it? But hey, for two bucks, it's worth a try, if nothing else, I could use it to start a fire in the fire place.

Part too... 2-marrow.

Yesterday we went to see True Grit. Kinda figured that it wouldn't be crowded at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, which proved true. The theatre was about half full, mostly old codgers and their ladies. Now you know they were old I refer to them as old! I wonder if this is true of most of the True Grit viewers? My guess was that it's the ones who remember the 1969 version with John Wayne, and were checking out the Cohen Brothers 2010 version. Just before the movie started a quite hush fell upon the crowd gathered, and there emitted an unusual sound, my wife leaned over and said that this crowd was a noisy group of pop-corn eaters, I responded that it was the sound of many artificial joints moving at the same time.
Oh yeah the movie, Not an over the top type of movie but a excellent and well done film. Haillee Steinfeld is brilliant as Mattie Ross, no doubt an Oscar winning performance, and Jeff Bridgers does a superb job as Rooster Cogburn, equaling John Wayne’s Oscar winning performance. True Grit, well worth the .35 cent admission, oops it's not 1969 anymore, well at least we got the senior discount!

Nose Bleed

Guess which end is up my nose?
