Great film. Nobody does action characters like Spielberg.

I really need to get to the movies. I haven't been in ages.

What's best out there now?

In line with your discussion of saints and sinners and evil:

President George W. Bush, a member of a United Methodist congregation in Texas, was scheduled to visit a United Methodist Church in a Virginia suburb of Washington, D.C.. An advance person from the White House visited the pastor of the congregation, and said, "We've been getting a lot of bad publicity among Methodists because of the President's position on stem cell research, right to life, abortion, death penalty, the environment, justice for society's poor, and the like. We'd gladly make a contribution to the church of $100,000 if during your sermon you'd say the President is a saint."

The pastor thought for a few moments and, knowing the church was in desperate need of funds, agreed to do it.

The President arrived that morning looking especially confident and pleased to be in a friendly environment. Then sermon began: "President George W. Bush is petty, a self-absorbed hypocrite and a nitwit. He is a liar, a cheat, and a low-intelligence weasel. He has lied about his military record and had the gall to put himself in a jet plane landing on a carrier posing before a banner stating 'Mission Accomplished.' He invaded a country for oil and money, and is using it to lie to the American people. He is the worst example of a United Methodist I've ever known. But compared to Dick Cheney and the rest of his cabinet, George Bush is a saint."
