The title is cliche, all I can think is The World of Garp. I sometimes relate to movies, even old ones, better than I do to most people. The phrase "What would Garp Do?" Was just a bit over the top.
As I sit here and touch type this blog on my damned iPad, I am watching Hodgie ,(not his real name) who is remoted into my computer and repairing an issue with a student iPad. Garp's tool was an old fashioned typewriter. I can't imagine what he would think of the modern technology that has come to pass since "The Bastard Son of Jenny Fields" started writing his own works.
While this is only make believe, I can only imagine I would hear the words, "What the f*** is this?".
Unfortunately, Garp died at the end of the movie. Big letdown for Hollywood, can,t make a Garp II. I also can not look at John Lithgow the same way I did before he transformed from football star to a woman. I still hear the line about how dreadful he thought it was to be "bitten off in a Buick!"
As you can see, nothing is worth writing about this week. Maybe I'll have something more in a few. Later!
