Theoden's thread locked up so I'm taking the liberty of keeping it going.
Here is a song that speaks volumes to me. I would post a link to the music video on Youtube, but I'm not able to access it at work. Take a look at it, I bet several of you can relate to to it, plus Ladies, Jimmy Wayne is not hard on the eyes at all!

Last night I watched "A Fish Called Wanda". I had forgotten about how John Cleese had an affair with Jamie Curtis over nothing more than her wanting to seduce him. They portrayed his wife and family life like a horrible prison sentence, I guess to show that he was justified in chasing after Jamie? The weird part is they kept playing this totally romantic love-story music on the parts between the affair couple. Um...why not play porn music, as it was more like something from a sleeze show?
However, since the movie was about hardened criminals and Cleese became one of them in the end, I suppose that cheating was the least of their sins?
All in all, I actually loved that movie...just that the cheating part escapes your notice until you have somehow been touched by it...
I LOVE THAT SONG!! My oldest daughter and I got to meet him after a concert a few years ago. He autographed my shirt and my cd and took pics with us. She was embarressed saying we were flirting with eachother lol.

Anyone watch the season premiere of Grey's Anatomy tonight. Dangit, they can't stay away from adultery on that show, can they? Poor woman, she was betrayed by her H and her best friend! Not only that, but H had lost his job 8 months earlier and had not shared it with her. She had to find out from her best friend who was sleeping with her H!

I just got on the hotel computer in Jackson Hole, and saw your post. I thought I did a good job on my speech today, and now I am relieved the business part of this trip is over.
Oh, cute story. We flew in on tuesday with just a 15 minute connection in Dallas. We made the flight to Jackson Hole, but our luggage didn't. So we went to the poster session/wine and cheese reception at the conference in the only clothes we had -- what we wore on the plane. So my husband was drinking a glass of red wine, and I had water (getting adjusted to the altitude). Anyway, I started talking to this pretty college student aged girl standing in front of a poster, and she asked why I was here all the way from Tampa. So I told her that I was speaking at the conference. Then she looked at my husband, and he said, "I just came for the sex." I was so shocked that he said that that I hit him on the arm, splashing his red wine all over the only shirt he had. So we left the conference and went downtown to buy some Jackson Hole t-shirts. Our luggage did arrive the next day.
Anyone else re-watch movies and realize there was an adultery theme that they never recalled before? Guess I just notice them more, huh.
Anyhow. New movie coming out this weekend. The book comes out today. It's called Fireproof. Kirk Cameron (old Growing Pains kid--all grown up) is starring in it and did an interview the other day with Hollywood.com---- ____________________________________________________________
Hollywood.com: Fireproof is ultimately about saving a marriage. How do you tell that story? Kirk Cameron: Most love stories in movies are kind of about this unlikely person meets that unlikely person and there is chemistry and fireworks and it is the story of the obstacles until they finally get together and that's your crescendo. This movie starts 10 years after the honeymoon is over and what do you do when there is no fire left?...Can a couple who seems to have lost it get it back again? Fire it back up to the point where they would still say 'I do' all over again." I find the movie very, very inspirational.
HW: Is fireproof a metaphor in this movie? KC: It is. In the movie the word fireproof is used a couple of times from one firefighter to another specifically talking about marriage. What he says is, "Look when something is fireproof it doesn't mean that fire is never going to come to it, it is that when fire comes you are going to be able to withstand the heat."
HW: How do the characters in the film withstand the heat? KC: So in a nutshell this is a love story about a firefighter and his wife and a marriage that is going up in flames…[My character is] about to get a divorce when his dad steps in and says, I want you to put it off for 40 days, "I am going to send you something." So he sends him something in the mail, this hand written book called The Love Dare and it is a 40 day challenge to see if he really understands what love is in its purest sense and then challenges him to see if he can demonstrate it for 40 days even in the face of her constant rejection…It is a real book that is coming out in book stores on Sept. 26 the opening weekend of the film…I'm actually going through it in real life at home. It is a great book, I'm on like day 10. ________________________________________________________________
OMG sara.. That's is so funny. Does he normally say things like that??? Glad your speech went well, that's always a hard thing to do if your not used to it.
Another movie I was thinking of the other day was "hope floats"
