On Monday afternoon someone put a box of old videos next to the LifeLine Bin, in the car park of my work place.
When I first saw it on the way to my car, I couldn't take my eyes off of it.
You know when you're walking, trying to check something out, without anyone knowing, without falling all over yourself in the process!
I was Desperate to see what movies were inside.
Sitting on top I did spy a copy of American Werewolf in London.
I kept walking to my car.
It was still there on Tuesday morning, it had dew all over it.
It was still there when I left work yesterday, someone had rummaged through, shifted the contents.
I could see a copy of Faceoff.
I couldn't take my eyes off it. I needed to know what was in there!
It was still there this morning, and this afternoon.
As I walked passed it today, I reminded myself that I don't have a video player, and I don't need those videos. I tried to convince myself that I don't even need to know what was in that box.
It's pointless knowing, I told myself, besides there were people around. They would see me bent over looking in that box, rummaging. They would think I was a freak. Someone might take a photo, then put it on instagram hashtagged trashbaby, or something.
I imagined taking all the videos out and placing them on the road and taking a photo. Then putting the photo on instagram, asking if anyone wanted the movies. I wanted to find them a good home. That's not weird.
I kept walking.
How crazy, and I am still thinking about them!
Seriously, what do I think is in there, some ultra rare John Waters Movie.
I already have Pink Flamingos on DVD and VIDEO!!
Speaking of John Waters. A week or so ago, after writing the post about my hair , I was the mood for watching Cry Baby. So I did. Then I watched it the next night, with the Directors commentary on. It was the first time ever, that I've watched a movie with the commentary running.
I don't believe there many voices out there I would want to hear jabbering over a movie I want to watch.
John Waters voice is so smooth, and he is so trashy and so funny. He can get away with spoiling my movie time with a bit of yak-ity-yak.
Well that is it for the time being.
