... go find a copy of "Cars" (pixar/disney) and watch it. especially if you are over 50 years old. you young grunts may not appreciate the subtle (and not-so-subtle) nuances of the film as it unveils a philosophy of life and happiness. ;) no, really, for us old folks who used to go on 'trips' with our parents, and then started doing it in vw bus with friends and later with our own families, it really struck a chord with me. and i suspect it will also with a lot of you that are close to my age ... those of us that have driven long distances on non-interstate highways. a bit sappy in a few places, but chuckles and a few guffaws in other places. in my opinion, WELL worth the few dollars at blockbuster, movie gallery, netflix, Auntie June's Bordello and Video Rentals, or whatever. and if you have kids, they might like it, too ... but for different reasons. now, the Danger: letting wives, girlfriends, and children watch this movie MIGHT cause Trippittis ... you might start getting comments like "when are you gonna fix up that bus so WE can go on a trip like that?". :) and when the movie is finished, don't eject the dvd ... watch the additional features: mater and the ghostlight. and inspiration for cars. that's my movie critic's Choy's of the Weak! unca joel. ;)
