Friday Fun
Hollywood used to know how to make good movies. They started with a good story, not a big budget for special effects. The other night, I just randomly happened to notice that a certain film was being shown. I haven’t sat and watched a movie since October (loyal friends may remember my mention of The African Queen)…
And, the title is on my Top 30 Movies Of All Time list, so, I forced myself to sit quietly and watched 1963’s It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World — which featured a cast comprising anybody who was anybody.. and is darned funny.
In 2001 a .. um, er, “new version” was released, which I also thoroughly enjoyed, and also highly recommend, name Rat Race. Those of you with Netflix accounts might want to add this to your “what should I watch?” lists.. If for no other reason than it has Mr. Bean in it.
Here is the movie’s “trailer” to give you a taste of some Friday Fun. (Because, we can’t be all-work-and-no-play now, can we?!)

A quotable quote for your day: “Thought is energy. Active thought is active energy; concentrated thought is a concentrated energy. Thought concentrated on a definite purpose becomes power. This is the power which is being used by those who do not believe in the virtue of poverty, or the beauty of self-denial. They perceive that this is the talk of weaklings.”

• About Tech Paul
I am a Retired computer & network technician. I used to think the machines were pretty cool. Now I don’t.
They’re anything but.
I regularly posted how-to’s and tricks & tips and general computing advice here starting in 2007. (Use the Search tool to find answers. But be aware, many are rather dated.) Sometimes I answered (your) specific questions in an article if I believed the answer was generally helpful to “everyone”. All the writing you see was my own, typos and all. There always is/was an implied “IMHO” in what you see here.
