2. An excellent film.

Too bad our current "leaders" learned nothing from McNamara's experience.

I lent it to my PoliSci Prof, and it never got back to me; I got it through Netflix. Sniffa hasn't seen it, I think he'll love it. :)

And yes! Absolutely!!

10. 'The fog of War' is tonight's film?

I'm watching the newest 'Die Hard' film tonight. It just came out on DVD and so far it's pretty good. Lot's of action!!
After that I want to re-watch, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0406816/">"The Guardian", with Kevin Costner. It's also a pretty good film, imho. ;)
I really liked it, but some parts were a little drawn out, I admit. Lot's of action there too!
And I have 'SICKO' to re-watch to before I have to return them on Monday.
