Everyone knows that I love movies and watch them as much as I can. Always have. I like to tell people about good movies when I see them so that they will watch them too and maybe get as much enjoyment as I did. I watch a lot of independent, smaller films, documentaries, [...]

As usual the weekend was not long enough. Friday Joe got an electronic dart board. And though I am limited to using only the black darts (I keep throwing them at the wall) I really enjoyed playing.
