Cinema Saturdays: There's Something About Mary

Remember the movie "A Christmas Story", about a little kid that only wanted a BB gun for Christmas? The author of that story, in an interview before he died, said something like "All great comedy is based on obsession" John Cleese said something very similar. A patron walks into a cheese shop, determined to get some cheese to eat no matter what. A man running a cheese shop is determined to be friendly and helpful to everybody even though there's no cheese to be found; something he can't admit.

Such is comedy.

"There's Something About Mary" is a wonderful movie about obsession. It's full of top-rated actors who hit their marks and make sweet music with their craft. It is full of scenes that are bawdy, in poor taste, and funny as hell, so if you have a sensitive temperament, you should pass. I'm not going to say any more and ruin it. You should watch it.

Locals is turning off their free accounts and I've decided that I'd rather go back to maintaining my own site than sign up for any more "free" services that end up changing the conditions of service later.

The new site is just like this one, only no "locals" in the name. It's https://danielbmarkham.com

Please give it a shot, and please let me know if you have any problems signing up. I think I have the configuration down but you guys will be the first 100 or so to sign up, so there'll probably be some snags.
