Week 14 of 23 to Canberra Marathon..Recovery Week

Program for Today : Rest ......YEAH!

Took in the movie "No Country for Old Men"....now there's a thriller full of relentless violence & suspense where you won't believe what happens next, even though you know it's coming!!

A couple of lines from Tommy Lee Jones had the only touches of humour. One, when his rather naive deputy remarks after they've come across the shocking sight of shot to pieces dead bodies: "It's a mess, ain't it Sherrif?" and the sherrif answers, "If it ain't, It'll do till the mess gets here."

And then his line on how crimes gotten out of hand : "It starts when you begin to overlook bad manners. Anytime you quit hearin' 'sir' and 'ma'am', the end is pretty much in sight."

Great movie, but that country is for no one, never mind old men!

  1. I wanted to see that movie at Christmas but didn't get around to it. Got some free movie tickets at work today so I might go see it after all!

  3. Didn't the lady at the farm use that line when she saw you all bloodied up from the fall?

    If it's totally the opposite to Gosford Park, I should enjoy it :)
