Fakin’ It

RDP Friday! Achievement!

As a pretender to many things and a product of a misspent youth; Achievement brought to mind a song that I and my garageband friends would play, much to the chagrin of anybody within earshot. Believe me that covered a lot of territory .

Fake it til you make it. A fine mantra. I learned many things playing in that band that served me well in my future achievements. But pretending to be a musician would not continue to be one of those endeavors.

So even covering such quality material, the real achievement was that we all eventually went our own way.

Only A Test

What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times?

I rarely watch anything more than once, let alone five times. It’s a character flaw I have accepted in myself. But back in the day when there were only four channels, if I did try to watch something again I would usually wake to this picture and a 1KHz tone. That being said there are a few movies I know I watched anytime they aired. Those would be:

  1. Dr Zhivago
  2. The Great Escape
  3. The Longest Day
  4. The Ten Commandments

Now with streaming; variety is endless. Reruns need not apply.

Hi Ho Hi Ho. It’s off to Bingeland I go.
