WILL THESE DAMN BABY BOOMERS *EVER* GET THEIR NOSES OUT OF THEIR NAVELS?

I guess the anwer is no.

You've seen this movie before. It's the 21st century's "Hair", except the hippies are moving in bullet time. But the theme hasn't changed. The "heroes" are nothing but pointless flotsam, helplessly tossed about by the "turbulence of the times", victims of "the man" and circumstances beyond their control.

Personally, I'll stick with heroes who act, rather than those who are acted upon. Heroes who are players, rather than pieces. Heroes who trod a chosen a path instead of walking in drug-addled circles. Heroes who say "we did it", instead of "we couldn't help it".

But maybe that's just me.

1 heheheh, Thank Goodness for "300" to shake off the other pretentious crap that comes out of that crap town of hollyweird. Well worded summary, Harv. I liked 300 so much I bought the sound track and copied it to my hard drive, so now when I'm making collections calls, I can imagine I've got a spear on the accounts payable rep I'm talking to and screaming "PAY YOUR BILL!!!PAY YOUR FREAKING BILL!!!!"

5 Men who saw shirking their duties as a fate worse than death are MUCH better than the lay-abouts who consider actually having any duties a fate worse than death. "Death before dishonor". It's not just for breakfast anymore!
