What are you doing instead of watching Dormer and Obama? (Vanity)

I am waiting for my daughter to come home from her Civil Air Patrol meeting and I have a movie ready to go for the family this evening. It is a much better alternative than having the yell at the TV using language that is completely unacceptable. I am sure it would only take 30 seconds before I call Obama Amish if I start watching him.

I previewed a movie that is on Netflix the other night. It seems like it will be a good one. A teenage boy that sails unassisted around the world back in the 60's. Low tech, no GPS, storms, strange lands, and for women, a love story. This is what we will watch.

The reason ... It's not because he sailed around the world, or climbed a mountain, it's because he didn't give up ... That gives people hope.

The Dove is a 1974 American biographical film directed by Charles Jarrott. The picture was produced by Gregory Peck, the third and last feature film he would produce.

The drama is based on the real life experiences of Robin Lee Graham, a young man who spent five years sailing around the world as a single-handed sailor, starting when he was 16-years old. The story is adapted from Dove (1972), the book Graham co-wrote about his seafaring experiences with Derek L.T. Gill.

Sounds like a great alternative. I'm trying to cook something quick and reading and posting on FR. Let us know your review of the movie.

Since Mark Levin has signed off (I wish he was on during the SOTU).....I’m just listening to Savage. I’ve never listened to him during one. This will be interesting. *chuckle*
