Well, the path may be steep and stony and the night is all around
And the way that you must take is far away
When your heart is lost and lonely and the map cannot be found

-Gobo Fraggle

He came back with “Click” with Adam Sandler. It ended up being a lot more serious of a movie than I thought. Predictable plot with a few minor twists, so-so movie, but it made me think, and I like it when stuff makes me think. read on! »

If you don’t know where this quote is from then I STRONGLY urge you to stop reading now, and go rent and watch ‘Stranger than Fiction.’ I absolutely love this movie. It made me think; I love movies and books that do that. But this is all another blog post for another time, another day. The point, go watch this movie. In fact, I own it; come over and I will make you popcorn and we can watch this movie together.
