  • “When Harry Met Sally”

    Rob Reiner changed my dating life, with this movie. The Katz Deli scene showed women how to fake it but make it sound “real.”

    The banter back & forth between Billy Crystal & Meg Ryan doesn’t feel forced but real. Can men & women be friends or does it get too complicated. Is one of the core plot driving twists in the movie.

    Therefore, it’s become a cult classic & a movie I love. Meg Ryan is superb as Billy Crystals love interest. The constant horrible dating scenarios some of us lived through before cellphones are greatly represented.

    It made me believe in true love, the sweet couples featured between the scenes are adorable.

    Rob Reiner changed my life & I’m truly grateful for his creative spirit that was gone too soon. This movie was a defining moment in my life. Thank you Rob Reiner.

  • I’d think so

    Are you a good judge of character?

    However, recently I was lied to by two different people & to say the least I expected more from them. Hence, my NY resolution is to not have those types of people in my life.

    I think I’m a good judge of character, I can spot people that are full of bs from a mile away. Passive aggressive two faced people too. You can only behave so badly for so long before I see through your crap.

    I look out for people that are sincere & kind. Not the I’m better than everyone attitude, that gets old real quick. Pompous, arrogant people also annoy me. There’s this song that suits those kinds of people, money can’t buy you class. Something I think is very true.

    Also, people that flaunt that they’re well off, or the nouvo rich. That just means you have a pile of credit card debt. Not impressive.

    What type of people get on your nerves?

  • Be on devices

    What could you do less of?

    I could do less of devices & the way they ping & distract you. I miss the good ol’ days when we didn’t have them. When we had to rely on conversation & good old Walkmans with our music.

    Anyway, I think that if we interacted more instead of using our devices, the world would be a better place.

    We’ve become addicted to them in an unhealthy way& are way too reliant on them when we should rely on ourselves. I don’t think most kids would be able to survive without the internet. Something I find sad. When I was a kid I learned how to build fires for survival & how to survive in the mountains.

    Kids these days don’t know or don’t have those skills. Life skills that are essential for survival.

    Maybe it’s because the parents don’t think they’ll need them so they don’t teach them.

    Less devices & more conversation. For this holiday season I dare you my dear readers to not look at your device when you’re eating, drinking or opening presents? Can you do it?
