Garden State
I went to Dallas last night with Val, Drew, and the Hogans to catch Garden State at the Magnolia. WOW! What an incredible movie. People have telling me to go see this for some time now, but had not yet been motivated to have to drive to Dallas or Austin for the sole purpose of going to see a movie. Now having seen it, it was clearly worth the drive. Plus, I got to eat at Chuy's before heading home. What more could you ask for.
On the way back Mike were discussing times in college when we would have to drive to Waco just for the purpose of watching a movie. People who have not lived in Waco prior to about '97 would not be able to understand this, but for those of us who - you know that there basically weren't any movie theaters in Waco at the time. There were 2, but they were pieces of crap and the biggest one had 6 screens. That's unheard of now. A 16plex is small by today's standards, but 6?? That's just cruelty.
