All of life's answers are found in the movies.
That's right. The movies.
I've said it before with Pirates of the Caribbean and I'll keep saying it. I can almost guarantee with 99% certainty that God TALKS straight to us through the movies.
"Why do we fall sir? So we might learn to pick ourselves up." Alfred said that in Batman Begins. Really helped me out after I jack-knifed the semi I was driving and got fired from Kraft Foods.
"I don't want to survive! I want to live!" A real heartbreaker from WALL-E and Pixar, the BEST production house making movies today!
"You're gonna eat lightnin' and you're gonna crap thunder!" That's a GREAT one from Rocky! Don't know why, just always liked it. Think it just sounds like me.
"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you might miss it." That line from Ferris Bueller's Day Off should be required memorizing in school.
"Pain don't hurt." I always like to bust that one out from Road House.
So I'm tellin' ya. DON'T turn off your TV. Don't do it just because you think it's what you're SUPPOSED to do! And don't listen to Nichols and all those Ivy League, ivory tower pinheads who keep saying TV and movies are bad for you. They aren't! They entertain! They relax! And as I think you can see from above, they tell us just what we need to know about ourselves so that we know how to live!
So get out there and live! LIVE! Soak up all that hope that the TV is pumping out (you hear that, Green Bay Packers? Hope! You can STILL capture the NFC North!) You'll be a better person for it. And stay away from shit like PBS and the History Channel. That'll just rot your brain.
Peace, Love, and smoked BBQ,
