whatever

Thanks alot, Tigers. You get my hopes up by winning 5 in a row. And then, lose the next 2, including your Home Opener. And I have watched more baseball in the past week (thanks to the MLB Extra Innings free preview) than I have in the last 3 years.

I've been thinking alot lately about some movie I was forced to watch a long, long time ago in middle school english class, and I couldn't for the life of me think of what it was (or why I was thinking about it). All I could remember about it was an escaped convict got a kid to get him some food and tools for his chains, or "his friend would cut out his heart and his liver", along with a crazy lady, a snobby girl, and a benefactor. So I started watching a movie I got from netflix last night, and within the first 2 minutes, I was instantly reminded (although it was nothing even remotely close to being the same) of the movie was thinking of. So, after I did some major research on IMDB, as it turns out, Great Expectations with Gwyneth Paltrow and Ethan Hawke, is a modern day remake of a Charles Dickens novel, which, to my surprise, has been filmed many, many times, and was done by the BBC, the exact same movie I was thinking of.
