Good was Sandy’s for dinner. Or lunch. $3.18 for a burger, fries and drink. Better was it came after a dunk in the cold creek. Looks like we’re hitting a hunnert yesterday. Imagine that, in the summer time, in Texas. Who’d a thunk it?

Bad? Ugly? None of that on Thursday, but I didn’t happen across a familiar sign that had been vandalized in an amusing way.

What a good movie. Just a little “over the top,” but just so, and not too much. What makes it special, at least, in my eyes? Other than it was filmed in a setting that looks so much like parts of the American Southwest?

It’s the way a foreigner sees the way the American Frontier should look. Not what cowboys looked like, but what some director (and his stylist) thought the American Southwest should look. Or what their take on the Civil War might have been. A little different from my scanty historical notes, but good fun, no matter how it’s sliced.
