Real Love
A motor-sport website reported on 8.26 that the ailing Paul Newman, 83, took a final spin around the Lime Rock track earlier this month in his GT1 Corvette. However accurate this sad tale may be, it summoned an immediate recall of Fred Astaire's "Julian" character in Stanley Kramer's On The Beach, and particularly Astaire's expression after he wins the third-act Grand Prix race. (Which comes right at the end of this YouTube clip.)

It made me think of The Bucket List. And then that made me stick a fork into my hand.

Wells to Massey: The Bucket List? Show some respect. And you're thinking of voting for McCain-Palin because liberal bloggers added up the indications and asked questions? Good God, man. I hate emotional fence-sitters! "Eewww, my feelings just changed so I might vote for the bad guy now out of spite for bloggers who exhibited jusitified curiosity!" You make me want to throw up, man. Are you serious when you write this stuff or pretending to be this "eeww" person?

If you thought Massey's thought was bad...
It actually made me think of the end of Point Break.

Nice to see your sense of humor about you, Wells (the second sentence didn't clue you into the fact it was a joke?). And it's also nice to see your definition of adding up indications and asking questions:
From the oh-so-inquisitive Sarah Palin Is NOT The Mother: "Well, Sarah, I'm calling you a liar. And not even a good one. Trig Paxson Van Palin is not your son. He is your grandson. The sooner you come forward with this revelation to the public, the better."

I'm pretty confident that this happened just as it's been described. I've seen more than one account.
