I watched a movie last night. *Twice. *In a row. *I watched it because
someone here had made mention that they were reading the book. *I watched it
the second time because I had missed a couple of scenes due to **** breaks,
getting a beer, and interruptions by SWMBO.

I halfway expected something like Secondhand Lions. *It definitely was not.

The movie left me disturbed. *A little bit of that feeling after you've seen
or been in a bad accident. *A feeling that for the grace of God, there go I.

It left me in a mood to ponder some of the questions asked in the movie, an
some of the points left unresolved.

What it did leave me with the most was the realization that at times, we are
all sometimes only inches away from very evil people and things.

It makes me want to carry my gun more often.

If you haven't seen it, watch it, or read it. *If you don't like blood and
gore and edge of your seat tension, don't partake.

The movie may change your view on the people sharing oxygen with you, and
just how close they are in reality.

Later, there was a special on Drugs, Inc. *The meth situation in this
country is frightening. *The whole drug thing is frightening. *And, as in
this movie, there is a small chance that a ripple from its evil pond may
flow into your life.

Steve...it is obvious that you have the personality type that should
not watch those kind of movies.

Repeat after me..."Movies are NOT reality...movies are NOT reality."

And tell us how owning a gun would make you safer from an imaginary
threat.

It doesn't.

Have you spoken with a mental health professional recently about your
feelings?

I strongly urge you to do so.
