My Current Interest

            Sometimes I find movies I want to write about and don’t for some reason.   The two main reasons for this are A) I have to return the disc before I get the chance to write, and B) I don’t know if I have enough to say for a full post.   And, okay, sometimes I just don’t feel like writing at all.
