Happy Birthday Childhood Memories.

Yesterday was Jim Henson's 75th Birthday. Jim Henson is another one of those childhood heroes that died too early. My parents were huge fans and made sure that I had an "education" in all things Muppet.
I own Labyrinth and Dark Crystal. I relish spotting Muppets in movies. When I am very bored at work.. I hum Mna Mna!

And today, The Princess Bride turned 25. I am currently sitting at the local geeky coffee shop with a few dozen of my closest friends watching The Princess Bride. We are quoting it like Rocky Horror.

It is amazing to me to see how well this movie stands up. The one liners are amazing. The cast is epic. Really, every time I see it.. I pick up new and amazing nuances.. like today.. just now, I realized Count Rugen is CHRISTOPHER GUEST!!  Prince Humperdink, wears bronzer. 


Oh well, back to watching!
