I REMEMBER MY WISH WAS TO CHANGE

The World when I was a young man

Now that I’m old my wish has changed

And I want to change the young if I can

BEST BEFORE 1980 # 7

 

I think I may be past my best

Because I popped out to get milk

And return home two hours later

With a tin of paint and no milk

OLD AGE SUCKS # 1

 

I sat down on a park bench

So, I could pull up my socks

Sadly, I wasn’t wearing any

God getting old really sucks

LONG AFTER NEEDING BIFOCALS AND HEARING AIDS

 

Long after needing bifocals and hearing aids

We still make love in the silent gloom

The only difference being that during the act

It would be difficult to tell with whom

THEY ARE HAVING TO REMAKE

 

They are having to remake

The Ewok movie

As they now identify

ALL-TIME CLASSIC MOVIE FAVOURITES – THE SHINING (1980)

 

“The Shinning” is a horror classic, screenplay by Stanley Kubrick and Diane Johnson, based on the Novel by Stephen King and Directed by Stanley Kubrick.

 

Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) is an aspiring author and recovering alcoholic cursed with a persistent writer's block.

His solution is to take a job as an off-season caretaker at the secluded Overlook Hotel in Colorado's snow-capped mountains, and drags his wife, Wendy (Shelley Duvall), and his gifted son, Danny (Danny Lloyd) with him.

The Torrance’s arrive as the Hotel begins to shut down for the season, and they are given the grand tour, during which they meet the Hotel's chef, Hallorann (Scatman Crothers).

Halloran chats with Danny about the rare psychic gift they share called “The Shining”, and warns him about certain rooms he should avoid, as the Hotel has a grizzly past.

In the weeks that follow the closure of the Hotel Jack fails to overcome his writers block and little by little, Jack starts losing his mind.

He feels trapped in a gargantuan silent prison set in an unforgiving environment of seemingly endless snowstorms, his days are filled with strange occurrences and eerie visions and incessant voices in his head demand a sacrifice, leading to a thrilling and dramatic finale in true Kubrick style.
