I'm back

Hi There.
Well....I'm wondering if this blogging thing is for me. Seems like I don't have much to say or maybe the time to say it.But here I am over a month after my last post. I just finished reading a book called " No Country for Old Men" and they made a movie out of it. It was a good book. I'm not sure how the movie will be though since it's mosty the inner thoughts of the characters , a lot of blood and guts and short on dialogue but movie makers have a way of dealing with that which is usually why the movies are never seem to be quite as good as the books. Endings are the things really......It seems like I've seen so many movies that had the potential to be good but the endings just let you down. Sometimes an ending can ruin the whole movie for you but books don't sem to do that. Maybe because in real life there are no endings.....just transistions but something always happens next...............better or worse or unexpected.
I think that is one of the themes of the book. The roll of " fate" in our lives and how it relates to the choices we make. Especially the ones we know are a misstake but we make them anyway.....even regretting them while they're happening. Actually..............if you're the type that's easily depresseed, you may not want to read the book at all.
