There aren’t many movies out there that can capture hearts across generations for decades after it was released but The Princess Bride is one of them. This movie is about true romance, sword duels, broken hearts, heroes and villains, good vs. evil, courage, perseverance, grudges and breathtaking landscapes. Its cast of actors astounds the mind with such talents like Cary Elwes, Robin Wright Penn, Mandy Patinkin, and Chris Sarandon. Don’t forget Andre the Giant, Billy Crystal and Fred Savage as entertaining characters as well. This movie was released in 1987 but continues to engage audiences all over the world. Rob Reiner directed The Princess Bride and used an unusual feature to tell the movie. The movie begins with Fred Savage playing a child who has been ill and whose grandfather comes to entertain him by reading a novel called The Princess Bride. The novel is the basis for the entire movie while continuing to tell the story of the sick boy.

There are several basic observations that a toddler will go by at dinner. These include:

• It doesn’t matter how much I like dinner, I still have to see what happens when I throw it from my high chair

• If it fits in my mouth, it should be taste tested.

• What I don’t like can be spat out at any time, regardless of how healthy you think it is for me.

• I want what I’m eating. I want what you’re eating. I also want to nibble on your new sweater.

• I like what I’m drinking, but I want what you’re drinking, too.

• Denial of sharing is a personal affront, worthy of a screaming fit.

• Chicken and rice is nice, chicken nuggets are better, and what is snatched from someone else’s plate is best.

• Puree is best used to paint my tray.

I was told I had the flu from the health services center at my university a few days ago. Let me tell you, it sucks. I am not one to get sick often, nor have I ever had the flu, but this is absolutely miserable. I have skipped classes three days in a row and I’m already behind – and it’s the second week of class. Ugh! I had a perfect health record until my senior year of college? It’s not fair. My days have been a mix of sleeping and being awake, or acting like it. I go back to sleep whenever I can’t hold my head up any more (it happens often) and I haven’t changed my clothes in three days. (Not to worry, Mom, I have clean undies on.) Trips to the bathroom have been frequent and unpleasant; as a result I am guzzling about three gallons of water a day. I hope this will be over soon, I really do.

I did, and enjoyed every minute of it! I first saw the movie Meet the Parents when my son was born. It was great to watch while lying in bed. I laughed so hard during the movie that my side hurt. I’m not one for watching movies more than once, but I have watched this several times. Ben Stiller is very funny and so is Owen Wilson. In case you haven’t seen it, Ben meets his future in-laws for the first time and has to deal with jokes about him being a male nurse, losing his suitcase, letting the cat out of the house, meeting the bride’s ex, being a Focker, and so much more. I am so happy they made a sequel!

Last week was the most disappointing and most grief filled one of my entire lives. I was totally filled with confusion as to what to do with my job – to leave or continue. If I leave the job it would be sudden for me and my family to cope up with the financial burden. My boss was eating into my nerves and I too jumping at him. I in the meantime contacted all my friends and consulted my wife as to how to proceed. She had given me the hint that if I was being insulted to GO FOR IT AND GIVE IT TO HIM HARD. And that’s what I did. I had a straight confrontation with my boss. He stopped my salary for the previous month. I said I would not leave until he paid me what I was supposed to be paid, from his office. I was full of anger and even my colleagues got frightened thinking I would hit him. But I was totally in control of myself and made my self clear verbally. He paid. And I left the job. Though I have left a good paying job, I am happy for my decision. I have started designing from home and this week is a new leaf in my life.
