A Movie Date...

Well, sort of. While Sammy was in day care today, Michele and Paul took the opportunity to see an afternoon movie together. So off we went to see the latest installment of our favorite Italian pugilist. Actually, the movie was pretty good, much better than the previous movie in the series. It was really something to see this sexagenarian actor who is in better shape than Paul was decades ago (don't even mention now). We were expecting Rocky to be using a walker as Rocky V was made over 15 years ago.

A real conversation whispered between Michele and Paul during the movie:
Michele: Where is Apollo Creed in this movie?
Paul: Dead.
Michele: Carl Weathers is dead?
Paul: No, Apollo Creed died.
Michele: Oh, how sad.
Paul: He was killed in a fight by Captain Drago in Rocky IV.
Michele: Uh-huh.
Paul: And Mickey died in Rocky III.
Michele: Uh-huh.
Paul: Yeah, his ticker gave out while Clubber Lang was beating Rocky.
Michele: Uh-huh.
Paul: And Adrian died sometime between Rocky V and Rocky VI.
Michele: Hush now, Paul, your beginning to scare me.


ROCK-Y....ROCK-Y....ROCK-Y....
