Watched the 70’s Robert Redford movie Three Days of the Condor the other night -- still a good movie with fine acting and dialogue and a welcome relief from inane action scenes and blaring soundtracks. I then watched Season 1 of the Prime/MGM series, Condor, which is an updated and expanded version of the same story and found it to be not bad.
Also watched Dustin Hoffman’s Marathon Man. Hadn’t seen it in many years and while still a good movie, it didn’t hold my attention all the way through.
A rough week this past one. Hopefully we’ll pick up the pieces beginning today.
I liked that movie and watched it a number of times, including recently. I also really liked an older Redford in Spy Game. If you have not seen it I think you might like it. Many good performances by some actors I like.
I pray that Trump gives a dignified and non-typical-Trumpian address tonight. Lay out the facts that led to his decision, explain the result, thank those involved, and take no questions.
Good morning, GN.

I am sorry you and Mrs Sven are going through this. Just not right.

The sheer menace that Laurence Olivier gave his role has always stood out to me as an example of why he is one of the greatest actors.
Agreed.
Happy “Helpful Tips” Saturday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Sven, and Mac!
Sven -- as Mac said, it’s just not right. Continued prayers for you and Mrs. Sven.
Thanks, guys. I’m just in a funk. I can’t fix things nor can I figure out how to make them better.
In this case I don’t think using a bigger hammer will work, which is my usual approach to problems.
Yeah. So it goes.

From your mouth to God’s ears.
