Day 2

Day 2 of 7. Technically, I've already lost this challenge... Philosophically, my day doesn't actually end until i go to bed. I.E. challenge still a success.

I don't know why this has been bothering me but I was watching Top Gear (excellent T.V. show) on BBC America, when up starts the commercial break. Although I successfully managed to fast forward through most of the commercials (still a little slow at the reflexology of DVR), I would always catch a few seconds of the first commercial, an ad promoing the British Movie of the Week to which my first thought is "Great wonder what that will be?"

In my naivete, I wrongly assumed that for the British movie of the Week they might choose something, I don't know... British in theme? So many to choose from (literally), but let's face it the obvious answer to this question has to be The Hunt For Red October.

Truly there is nothing More British than a movie written by a prolific and unabashedly American author about a Russian Submarine captain defecting from the Russian military into American waters chased by American Admirals!

Hmmm... maybe they're just excited they finally get to stick it to the Ruskis by showing their finest submarine admiral had a British accent. Way to go Brits!! (I'm sorry if I've offended any Ruskis.)

In other news... Reign of Fire might be the worst movie I've seen the last 28 min. of - ALL TIME!! And yet, I've still watched all 28 min.

My thursday evenings are sad.

I can't wait until Misti and Ella get home.
