Shall We Dance
Pros: Good Love Story
Cons: J Lo
Thought this was a better than averag movie with a real plot. The thing that killed the movie for me was the dance scene with Gear and J Lo in the gray dress...her butt was so big that it took the whole screen and killed the rest of the movie for me, like his daughter did for him. ...

Violets Are Blue
Pros: Rekindle a first love's flame
Cons: Too many dark seens
One of the first things friends or family tell you about when coming across a first love is "danger". True it will often upset your life but could be your life needs to be upset or to wake up. The thing about rekindling a first love is it's instant as if you've never been gone even 40 years or so later. In this movie it was a two week affair after 15 years. What the couple found happens everyday, they had closure, rekindled an flame that has been burning for 15 years, and separated again knowing what was in the beginning was still there and will always be.
Great movie about everyday life like Bridges of Madison County it brings out the parts we missed in life but were afraid to find out. ...


First Look

Cons: Assembly harder than it needs to be
Purchased this mower direct from Remington, no shipping or tax and free extras...about a month ago and have used it 3 times at various grass lengths, no complaints on run time or cut.
Cons - the bolt holes to attach the handles need to be drilled out to connect the top handle, the lower bolts are a very close fit. Although most mowers come with fold up handles, doesn't appear anyone ever tested this part. If you don't move the power cord out of the way it will catch between the handle and turn out knob and likely cut into in time. The bolts to the handle knob are too short and have to go to the near fall off point to clear the space needed to fold. A long way from the ease of my 15 yr old mower I replaced this one with on this point.
The soft rubber on the handle easily gets damaged at the first brush with a tree or bush. After a few runs in my FL sand yard the selection dial doesn't work as easily as out of the box so no doubt that will be a problem in time, no way to clean it out I can see even with my air hose.
All in all is does the job for this small yard, quality isn't something mfgs aspire to these days, just $$$ ...
