Movie classics in the cove

Jacob — Mon, 29 Jan 2007 06:40:10 +0000

When the weather turns warmer, I want to show classic movies in the cove. More details later, but I’m starting to think about some movies which could be shown. Below is my list. Please comment if you have a movie to add, or if you want to boo a movie on my list.

Darn! I just remembered that I forgot my car up on campus and I should probably go get it right now even though it is late. Darn! I’ll have to finish the list later. Suggestions very much welcome.

Update 30 Jan at 6pm: Ok, I’m back. Moved my car last night, and now I’m back with the following additions:

Back to the Future
Karate Kid
ET
One of the Lord of the Rings movies
Life is Beautiful
The Three Amigos
The Singles Ward
The Princess Bride

I think that on particular nights we should combine the classic movie with some other activity like a new release movie, BBQ, desert potluck, or other events. Watching a movie up in the canyon is also an option.

Apples in September

There once was an apple
it was sweeter than the rest
it wasn’t the largest
but the taste was the best

The apple was one of just a few in the tree. It wasn’t shiny, but thats ok, because the other apples were full of glee. They would just hang out in the tree, being happy, thats the key.

But summer flew by, and September settled in. The apple in the tree, found many more friends. Or were they friends? The tree was full; yellow, red and green. They only hung on branches, with apples to be seen.

The old apple, who saw the emptiness of summer, now found that the empty summer tree brought more company that the full September tree. For in summer, the few apples in the tree, they hung out together. But in September, with the tree full, found that the other apples hung out only with the new beautiful apples, shiny and round. His old summer friends, not to be found.
