I will get some easy miles on the TM, maybe 4, and do some core work. Do you have any suggestions for a Redbox rental? I know what kind of beer to get but I don't know of any good movies to get. Have a good weekend.
What's your fancy? I saw about 20 movies in 2015 ranging from comedy to action to suspense to drama. But it kind of depends on what your interests are.

I pretty much like anything if it holds my interest. Last week we watched that Netflix movie about the kids who are soldiers in Africa. I forget the title but it was very good. I like comedies but I'm tired of the gross out ones that use the F word every five seconds. That gets old...
Are we there, yet?
Go for the classic oldies: Casablanca, African Queen, Key Largo, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Then add some good epics like Lawrence of Arabia and Dr Zhivago, some comedy with the Marx Brothers, and a musical or two like My Fair Lady and Oklahoma. Top it off with some inspirational films like Chariots of Fire.

Good stuff...
Dr. Strangelove for your dark comedy
Vimeo.com has "Beer Runners" about the origin of the running group. It's supposed to be good. I enjoyed David Horton's video, "The Runner" about his PCT speed run. There's also a good video about the ultra where they run on every continent. I can't remember the title though.
I have no movie recs, last one I watched was Entourage with DH.
A little over 5 on the treadmill. I scoped out the local park on the drive home to see if maybe I could run loops there for my long run Sunday. Lol, totally snow covered. We do not deal well with snow here in MD, maybe schools will open next week.
Some movie recs from the past year:
The Martian - is it on Redbox yet?
Ant-Man - one of the better superhero movies out there
Kingsman: The Secret Service - basically a Bond-esque spy movie but with some twists
Trainwreck - although it is a comedy with a lot of f-bombs, very funny
A couple slightly more obscure picks, highly recommended:
Love & Mercy - Brian Wilson biopic; he was one messed up dude
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl - boy meets girl with cancer; sort of a dark comedy & not exactly what you'd expect

Oops, I was slightly off there. I meant 33.
^ whoa. Do you keep a log or something?
I saw Jurrasic World in D Box, that was an awesome experience! The Wedding Ringer was surprisingly funny, Ant-Man was surprisingly good, The Gift was surprisingly strange. San Andreas wasn't as bad of a movie as some of the others of the genre. And I still don't know what Jupiter Ascending was. lol
Movies are subjective though, so none of it really matters.
lol - I probably could enter those in my log here. Some of them I had completely forgotten about!
No, there are several sites that list movies by the month year, release date, genre or even studio. This is one of them.
Nice new B&B Home page image, LOL!
i was wondering the same thing - there is no way i could remember any of it,
got back from palm springs (work conference) earlier today and only managed 7 miles over the last few days. oh well. speaking of movies, 13 hours was well done and will be seeing the revenant (sp?) tomorrow.
eric - yes, it's eye catching.
