Big Screen

Yesterday, after seeing Batman for the 3rd time, I realized that I love watching movies on the silver screen.... the complete blackness, surround sound, the inability to pause the movie.... it's so much better than DVD...

In the name of the org chart of candy, I tried a Hershey's Take 5... caramel, peanut butter, peanuts and pretzels all enrobed in milk chocolate. It was too much. My mouth couldn't figure out what was happening (but not in a good way... like when you have a nice blend of italian spices on chicken). Thank goodness I kept the wrapper so I don't need to eat a second one.

I had a stylized dream the other night where Michael James Fox was playing Superman. He burst out of a building into the rain, looking for his love.... but she was gone. The scene repeated itself 3 more times with him bursting out as Superman..... but that didn't change the fact: she was gone. Not even Superman has the ability to bring back lost love. Such are the ways of the heart.

I prefer DVDs at home because:
1. I can wear pajamas.
2. Most especially, there are no Other People around to bug me.
Although the actually movie watching experience is better on a huge screen, more engulfing, I am so sensitive to the OP that my experience is often tainted.
3. I love being able to stop the DVD to gather more treats.

I think Take 5ive needs raisins, nougat, and yogurt filling to be a "complete" candy.

Fox (and Reeves) were handicapped, but that's perhaps irrelevent...
