Date Night

I dated The Wife tonight. We tried and failed to go to a movie.

I was reading Ebert reviews to pick some possibilities. Near the bottom of his Rendition review I found the best turn of phrase I've heard in a long time.

See, Rendition is about Extraordinary Rendition, the procedure of removing a suspect from their life and doing stuff to them that - depending on what your definition of is - is torture.

Ebert quotes James Rocchi from Cinematical.com - "Anytime someone tells you that you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs, immediately demand to see the omelet."

  1. Hey Mike,

    Just wanted to let you know that because you came to talk to our group in Sioux falls a couple years ago, we've gotten a hybrid car, use cloth diapers, and reusable grocery bags--thanks for starting the discussion for us, and say hi to Tim H. for me!

    Krista, Terence and Lucas

    Thank you for the encouraging words - and for carrying on discussion.
