Walking In Malden

Sunday, September 20, 2020

After my brief hangover passed me by, I went for a walk Sunday afternoon.  It was beautiful out.  As I approach the baseball diamond on the corner of Bryant and Cross Streets, I?m instantly transported back in time to my junior high years at Lincoln School, which used to be only feet away until it was demolished. 

The sight of the grass and the clouds are beautiful as I continue to the walking path, seating area and school markers.  Passing them I see flowers at the corner of Cross and Henry Streets, where, in 2015 I lived for 20 months. 

Funny where life leads you, whether you choose the path or not.  2015 was not a move by choice but 2020 is.  I don?t plan on being where I just located to forever.  It?s a gamble, a roll of the dice I had to take because my instinct and gut told me it was the right thing to do, and the right time.

I began working in the office again this week.  Feels a little strange.  Doing Tues-Thurs on a trial basis for a while.  So far, so good. 

I hope you?re all doing well.

Take care and stay safe. 🙂

I watched these Paul Newman films a short while ago.  The Verdict was very good.  I did not care for Absence Of Malice, though.

Eastwood News / Happy 90th birthday Clint.....

« on: July 05, 2020, 10:00:15 PM »

I guess I’m celebrating Clint’s 90th birthday with repeated viewings of Firefox.  It’s taken 38 years for me to finally, fully appreciate this movie and love it.  I still can’t get enough of it lately.  Until now it meant little having even seen it on the big screen...twice!  I only wish I could’ve enjoyed it as much then as I do now.  Better late than never.  The movie poster I bought recently has renewed meaning now.  I reluctantly purchased it only because of the significance it held for me.  It was the first big screen movie of Eastwood’s I’d seen after having become a fan.  My expectations were very high.  I anticipated the release date, watching the movie trailers on tv, reading about it and collecting picture ads from the Boston Globe and Boston Herald newspapers.  There was an article on Eastwood the weekend it opened in one of the Sunday papers, too.  I wish I still had that, I think it was Parade.  Unless my memory is mistaken, I believe it was a Boston Globe supplement.  In 1982 Clint was 52 years of age, a year younger that what I am now.   I’ve pondered with that having anything to do with my renewed interest in Firefox.  I don’t think so.  Here I am, 38 years later, apparently having come full circle.  “Punching in new coordinates.  I’m coming home.” 😉

Hi Gant, I’d say my favorite scene is where Gant (er, ah... the other Gant, that is 😉) steals the Firefox.  It’s a pivotal moment in the film, where the efforts of all involved have paid off.  While he’s only just gone airborne and has yet to successfully complete the mission, seeing the expression on Colonel Kontarsky’s face as Gant takes off is priceless.
