Oh, I forgot to give

Oh, I forgot to give some movie tips for going to see Return of the King. Get there very early! We only arrived 45 minutes before show time for the matinee, and it was almost sold out. We had to split up, so Ian and Christopher were in the very front rows together, Jason and Charity sat together near the front, and Scott and I were toward the back. It's over 3 hours long, so you'll definitely want to visit the little girl's room (or boy's room) before the movie starts. I made it through the whole movie without having to get up and go, and for me that's a miracle. But I remembered something I read in Backpacker magazine (Scott's, LOL) about how to avoid getting up to go to the bathroom all night long when you are camping. It also works for movies. ;) If you are really warm, it keeps you from having to go as often. So as soon as it started getting just a little cool (comfortable, LOL), I put on my jacket. Also, eating something like a candy bar helps, too -- I don't remember why. So I had Reese's Pieces, and that seemed to help. I think smuggling in my own drink helped -- no ice, and I sipped on it and made it last through the whole movie. And I'm generally a real quaffer when it comes to beverages. ;)

Oh, and did I mention that I think George W. Bush is a Great President, not a Miserable Failure?
