Something I learned this week

After having watched two films based around the fighting spirit of certain individuals, I have learned that without sheer determination and hope so many opportunities in life can pass you by.

  1. Were there arm amputations in your movies? Dunno if that's gonna be too gross for me to watch!

  2. What's the quote? "A woman is like a tea-bag, you don't know how strong she is until she gets into hot water"? (suppose applies equally well to men, but it's now what Eleanor Roosevelt said!)

  3. The surest way not to fail is to determine to succeed.

  5. I'm guessing 127 hours and Kings Speech. Do I win the prize for guessing right?

  6. Ok I think built the anticipation long enough there. The films were 127 hours and the way back.... no the way. Wow, I can't think. It was based on a true story about 4 men who escaped a serbian prison furing WW2 and trekked the himalayas to their freedom. Very good film, despite my memory loss of the title.
