I found this kinda funny since I have had City of God sitting next to my TV since 6/23/06 and just can't seem to find the motivation to watch it.

Netflix Guilt

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

You should watch it, although it is definitely a mood movie as it is incredibly bleak.

Great article, Jim. I actually cancelled my Netflix subscription...three times. I'm without Netflix now and I like it. The pressure to watch movies that I'd put on my queue long ago and which no longer interested me was overwhelming. I gave up. I'm much happier now. I use my cable on-demand feature for newly released DVD's. It suits me, no pressure.

Reading is freedom.
The mind soars, no earthly cares,
no limitations.

Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant.

I used to watch movies and read books all the time!

Then I had a kid Smile

I am still trying to finish the last Dark Tower book. I've been on page 200 for about 5 months.

Oh, do I remember those days! Years, actually. Good thing I'm a fast reader because I had a lot of catching up to do once the kiddos finally went to school. Wink
