Drop by drop the snow pack dies, watering the arid lands below. |
It’s been a while since I went to a movie or listened to a radio. Most of my favorite singers and actors are dead. It’s not that I’m really that old. I’ll be 62 on December 24, 2008 at eleven minutes before midnight. It’s just that I haven’t been to a movie in about two years. My favorite singers are or rather were Johnny Cash because of the songs Long Black Veil, Man in Black, Ring of Fire, and Folsom Prison Blues. Elvis Presley and my only explanation here is that I was a teenager when his songs came out; he was good looking and had a sexy singing voice. My favorite actors were Christopher Lee (I’m not sure but I think he’s dead) because of the way he portrayed Count Dracula. Boris Karloff (no I’m not that old, but his movies were on the late show when I was growing up) because of the way he portrayed monsters. Today I like the actors who starred in the Lord of the Rings series and the Star Wars series. I liked them all and I’m not sure I could pick one I liked over the others. I’ll have to watch those movies again and see if there is one of the actors I preferred over the others. Then I’ll have to watch them again to see why I preferred one actor over another.
