Reply #27: DevilGrrl, here's my advice. Don't ever watch that show again... ever. [View All]

I once walked out of a movie called "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia" when it was previewed in the 1970s. I hated that movie. It was stupid, ugly, and boring. I wrote a review and read it on the air on an all-news station. I have no idea whether or not the film made any money, and at that time, there was no backtalk from any audience.

Fast Forward about 30 years. The movie came up on television late one night. My husband, who likes a lot of movie genres that I can't abide -- watched it with me and "enjoyed" it.

Know what? I still hated it.

As my mother used to say, "Let that be a lesson to you." I don't know what she meant by that, but she used it pretty frequently as I was growing up. I guess the lesson is CHOOSE MORE PLEASURE AND LESS PAIN. I have no idea whether I learned all of the lessons my mother taught, but I have learned a few more in the past almost-three-score-and-ten years.

Peace, Love and Happiness
