I finished the book, Defending Jacob, and loved it.
It's the kind of book that makes you think, what if?
Would I respond like they did (the characters), or would I have seen the writing on the wall and gone the other way?
This is a good, good book.
Very highly recommended.
Now to movies.
One of my all-time favorite movies is 12 Angry Men. The original came out in 1957, starring Henry Fonda, L. J. Cobb, Jack Klugman and a host of other great actors. It was remade and released again in 1997, this time starring Jack Lemon, George C. Scott, Ossie Davis, and a colorful cast of characters.
The entire movie takes places in a jury room where these men are deliberating the fate of a young man accused of murder.
Once more, it sets the stage for reflection, and more, what if's?
In music, Sean Hayes has a song called, "Powerful Stuff," that was used in a Subaru commercial. I can't find the commercial, but here's a link to the song.
Now, you're probably thinking, do I care if Faye likes this or that?
Well, if you know me, you know that I missed my calling. I should have been in sales because when I like something, I want the world to know it and experience the joy of it with me.
Seriously, I should be paid for my endorsements.
Anyway . . .
On Friday, I begin my journey home. First stop, New York City.
Until then,
Cheers.
