Surprisingly enough, this pirate movie was rated PG-13 and not "ARRRR". Even that rating is a stretch, because the movie really was quite family friendly, in my opinion. I highly recommend it, even to all you respectable land-lubbers out there.
On a slightly related topic, I sewed. That's right--needle, thread, the works. You see, earlier this year two buttons fell off of one of my favorite shirts. In the past, when a button went missing, I simply gave the shirt away, because to my mind, the shirt was damaged beyond hope of repair! But I could not part with this shirt, so I searched desperately for a solution. Saddened to see me in such a pitiful state, my mom came forth with the answer: "Sew new buttons on, silly!"
Sew I did.
And particularly well, I might add. In fact, I think I might even open a little shop to bring in a little extra cash. I already thought up a name, too: Sew What.
Any comments, folks? Has anyone else seen the movie? Better yet, has anyone ever sewn on a button? Or sewn anything for that matter?
Your attempts to get comments about this blog seem to be sew-sew at best.
Hi. Yes and Yes.
About the movie, yes, I've seen it and I agree: It's Great! Johnny Depp has some great quotes throughout the movie: "If there were no survivors, where do you think all the stories came from?", "Not all treasure is sliver and gold, mate." and the best one of all, "Or he told you the truth because he knew you wouldn't believe the truth even if you heard it!" Great quote and so very true! Besides great quotes the scenery is incredible!! The caribbean is gorgeous!!! After seeing that movie you just can't help but want to go to the beach, go scuba diving, or sailing, just something that involves that gorgeous water!
On sewing, yes, I've sewn several buttons in my day and I'm inpressed to hear you can too! There are not that many guys I know who do. I've sewn some other things but I wish I knew more. Alas time flies away from me . . .must remedy this someday. Ok, I'm starting to babble now . . . must have had too much coffee today!!! AAhhhh!
