Comanche Moon

Well, folks, the prequel to Lonesome Dove (Pulitzer Prize winner by Larry McMurtry) is now a new mini-series.  Pretty great stuff, though I usually close my eyes during the more edgy parts (I'm a close-my-eyes-during-horror-movies kind of guy...the same is true with Indian scalping and such).  I have to say, though, that the guy who plays Gus seems a little wimpy compared to Robert Duvall, who had the role in the Lonesome Dove mini-series.  Check it out if you get the chance.  Part two is on Tuesday of this week.

Thought for the day - from the noggin of Brian Regan:

"You know who I feel sorry for?...Arab Americans who really want to get into crop dusting."

Greg Trine is a truly inspirational writer and speaker. When he visited my class, he captivated my students with stories of his challenges and successes as a writer, inspiring them with lessons of perseverance and encouragement. The activities he worked on with them showed how they could embody traits of character just as noble and just as funny as Melvin Beederman's. He was very entertaining, and the evil laugh contest was a hoot!
