With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go
by chuckofish
After daughter #1 headed back to mid-MO yesterday, I sat down to do some “desk work.” I got nothing much accomplished and I came up with very little to blog about.
The OM and I went to Ted Drewes for some frozen custard and later we watched a really worthless movie. I mean, I like Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson and Idris Elba, but Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbes and Shaw (2019) went beyond ridiculous to just plain stupid.
Who does non-stop computer-generated violence appeal to anyway? Fourteen-year old boys? Good God Almighty, I need a mental cleansing after that whatever you call it.
So here are Josh and Carson covering one of my favorite songs from the olden days.
P.S. Sweet Baby James was released as the first single from the James Taylor’s second album but it did not chart. Typical.

I enjoyed Hobbes and Shaw. Although it was physics defying and over the top, I thought it was slightly less stupid that most action movies. It’s true that the action scenes were boring, but I thought the two main guys had good chemistry. Sometimes my brain can only handle mindless action…
Sorry the movie was disappointing–but at least you got Ted Drewes!
Sometimes movies are so bad it’s almost offensive! Ugh.
