"I think I killed a duck"


Dont you love when theres actually a good movie on TV?
Like, I just randomly looked at the TV guide at 8:25 tonight to find that my favourite feelgood movie of all time was on: About a Boy.

The first time I saw this movie I thought it was nice - but since then it just keeps getting better everytime I watch it.

Hornby makes a really simple point: "No man is an island" - but despite its simplicity I think it does sum up a lot of what life is about: that the worth of our life does not come down to how much we earn, or what we do (or dont do) for a living, but rather our relationships and the virtues we use in these relationships: honesty, tolerance, consideration, humility, joyfulness etc.

And the whole Singing with your Eyes closed - how good is that?

"it was sad. horrible....but driving fast behind the ambulance truck was FANTASTIC"
