Tiny Victories

Had some clouds roll through and took the opportunity to bike to the grocery store, only to realize when I got out of the store that I’d forgotten to put the carry-basket back onto my bike and only had the flat rack and one sad bungee. Fortunately it wasn’t a major trip and most everything was already in my backpack, but since I wasn’t about to risk jamming raw eggs into the the same bag I use for work…


(They made it, but it was a slow trip :slight_smile: )

Original or the remake with Donald Sutherland? Or is there an even newer version? I liked the Donald Sutherland version better than the original.

There is something for everyone!

I find the pacing of many old movies to be too slow for me. And the bad special effects. I am spoiled.

Oh I love them, haha. The Thing is my favorite. Original foreverrrrr. I like the era pre-cgi when it was all puppets and miniatures and madness, haha.

ETA: I’m dumb, haha. I am also terrible at celebrities. The one I like is the Donald Sutherland one. It looks old so I didn’t know it wasn’t the original and I didn’t know who he was, lol. The annoying guy from jurassic park is in it too. And spock.

Well, the Donald Sutherland one IS old, now. But there’s an even older one, in B&W I think.

I play on a trivia team, and for some reason the scorer never accepts ‘the blond one’ as the answer when they’re asking about celebrities :smiley: . ‘Two-eyed Nick Fury’ also got a no for some reason.

Annoying one = Jeff Goldblum? I don’t think you mean Wayne Knight.
Spock = Leonard Nimoy

Have you watched the old Sinbad or Jason and the Argonauts movies? Really, really bad puppets. Really. Bad.

Bigger kid was watching the kung Fu tv show with David Carradine and came across an episode with Harrison Ford, pre-star wars. He was a baby! Playing a character named Harrison.
That was cool.

Haha, that would be me.

Mine is usually like off brand of the actual celebrity but also not with a name. Like “isn’t that the guy from those wizard movies?” And Mr. Meer just knows at this point that I’m thinking of Elijah Wood but talking about Daniel Radcliffe (although I’m less likely to actually get those two confused but it was the first celeb set the internet suggested that I knew both names).

I figured out how to connect my phone to the home network file system, so I don’t need to move videos through google drive.
