Wednesdays with Bucket

So I finally watched “Up” last night, and holey crap it is stunning on Blu-ray.  This is not a typical cartoon, in fact it’s kind of a tear jerker.  If not a tear jerker, it is at least a tear encourager.  As required by toon-law, it does include the typical cheesy moments prerequisite to getting a laugh from the young-ens.  But really, overall, this was not a kids movie.  It was sad, funny, mature, and visually stunning (and a really good argument to buy a Blu-ray player).

Bouncing here and there and everywhere

I just realized I haven’t eaten a gummy bear or gummy worm in -forever.  When mom used to pack our lunches; she would occasionally hide a gummy worm in our PB&J sandwiches, just to say she loved us.  Though a little disturbing, this was definitely a sweet gesture.

I know one thing; my next road trip is definitely going to include a hefty bag of some sort of gummied animal.
