Of Note:
-Joe Doyle stopped in at the golf course this morning ready to play in a scramble (fowl weather canceled it). He is just up from Florida and shared some of his stories from the Beijing trip and beer drinking on the Great Wall. Next item on his bucket list: Egypt and the Pyramids.
-Watched cbs most of the afternoon. Enjoyed the look back in history, both the heroes' segment and the '80's segment. Think they did a super job on entertaining us with cool stuff while we patiently waited for today's coverage to begin. Also thought the new gadget that allowed them to give us an animated trip down each fairway to the green was super - saw the slant of Augusta for what it really was for the first time - expect if I played there I would never hit a shot other than from an uphill or downhill stance. Also, do you wonder if this is the major where Tiger wins after not leading after 54 holes? Will have to climb quite a hill if he is to do that.
-Netflix movie tonight: Jon Dara - a Thai movie with a dark story and a lot of mixing of the sexes. The description does not do the movie justice or tell it like it is. This is better - from one of the reviews at the Netflix link:
The much-hyped Miss Hong Kong Christy Chung is perfect as Khun Boonlueang, one of the, uh, cool-as-ice mistresses. Though light on the eyes, the story is another matter. It's so intensely dark and disturbing, riddled with one too many taboos, it might actually put off some viewers. Consider yourself warned. The Siamese have done it again: "Jan Dara" is a disturbing, beautiful, sad, and highly erotic film. I'm definitely looking forward to watching Nimibutr's "Nang Nak."Slow moving but in the end I did enjoy it; Diane, on the other hand, thought it wasn't even very good background as she unraveled yarn and continued knitting.
