Blog From The Bench

I've been given the task of reviewing The Outsiders and the uber Ben-Hur DVDs, and with any luck, they should be up soon. Why haven't they been up before you ask? Because I'm too friggin' popular at work. Last week, I was ready to sit down and get to brass tacks, when I get a call from work around 9:30 Saturday morning. Then another, then another still. By 1230 I'd gotten seven calls and was on my way in, to get five minutes of work done. I went to my local music and movies store to sell some old music and movies for credit, and during a 15 minute drive, I get four calls. So yeah, people like me at work.

Anyway, almost done with Ben-Hur, and The Outsiders will soon follow. There's an interview coming with a Coppola rep that you may want to keep an eye out for too. If I'm overstating whatever following I have, so be it, but my "rye breads" as I call them, want to be informed.
