Grumpy Old Men

Clint did start out pretty grumpy in that movie (Gran Torino) but warmed up a bit as it progressed. Sorta sad at the end, but he took one for the team knowing the end was near anyways.

 

Hey, at least we are not Dopey old men 🙂

Time for me to jump in.  Grand Torino was one of the best movies I have seen in my lifetime.  And I am a grumpy old man.  I just don't have time to post much here anymore.  The surprise ending of Grand Torino was just sheer genius on the writers part.  Clint Eastwood is not supposed to die.  But in this movie, his death served such a great purpose.

 

As a side note:  I may start to have more time to participate here like I used to do a few years ago.  I'm switching jobs, going to work for Honeywell (contract, maybe to hire in a year), and I hear how things are more relaxed there than where I am now.  I will be working on electronics for the space program, either the space station or the upcoming newest space shuttle.  Should be interesting.  Maybe I should have started a new thread...

tbob:

 

New job again? Sounds like a cool one, I have always had an interest in working for NASA or a space-related program. What part of the Valley?

I heard Rush is not coming to Phoenix this time around, I bet that will make you even grumpier 😞

Surely, I jest 🙂

By the way, I should warn anyone following my last link that it's full of spoilers.
