IT'S STILL THE SAME
Yesterday I watched a re-run of an old favorite movie of mine, A Man and a Woman. With a backdrop of Monte Carlo, and a musical score that is awesome, especially the almost haunting theme song, it's still a movie I don't miss when it comes on one of the movie channels I get on cable. Actually, I'm not that much of a movie watcher anymore, but they come with my sports channels.

It's a black and white/color movie with some subtitles and some real cheesy dialogue, "Love is stronger than we." Now, that is Green Bay cheesy.

I've been to Monte Carlo three times. I actually even won money at the casino there. Ok, I played a poker machine for about two minutes and won maybe a dollar or so, but I still left there with loot. Amazingly, it hasn't changed at all. Monte Carlo that is.

By going back even further to another old movie, To Catch a Thief, you'll find the same thing. Not one thing appears to have changed in the harbor or skyline. Not so most places. No new highways either. Just more traffic.

I started writing this blog yesterday, stopped to pick up some friends to play golf, finished the blog today, and now for two days I've had the theme song of this movie going around in my head. Oh well, it's a lot better than The Macarena.
