Quantum physics. I studied it for five whole minutes and I still don’t get it.

Things that make me feel like an idiot.

Speaking as someone who is eligible for a senior discount at McDonald’s, she’s still quite attractive, if you ask me.
You should see her in Caligula. She’s apparently quite a libertarian. Yes she is a lovely looking woman.
Watched Caligula a long time ago, because of the reported gratuitousness, but it's a horrible film.
I came up with a solution for the problem getting on the same wavelength as my new boss. I was eligible to retire in 2015, and this is the "triggering" event.
No problem now, got a date picked for the next stage in life.

The key to surviving retirement is having sonething to do that matters to you...hope you got something. I retired from my "day job" 13 years ago, still too busy to die.
I like that movie. Patrick Stewart and Liam Neeson have minor roles in it too.
I DID recognize them. That's why not recognizing Helen Mirren was such an embarrassment.
that's a high bar!
my 'idiot threshold' is crossed regularly by the 'everyday' stuff...the mundane, the unremarkable, the prosaic. 
Helen Mirren was a stone cold fox. It's not a good movie but I got hip to that when I watched Caligula.
Autocorrect. Thanks teach.
(Turns head to fellow deserted passenger behind and says “what a drag man”)
I liked it. It was in the same vein as Salo (for good reason I think, one is basically the modern day version of the other), but WAY trippier. And still every bit as brutal. Both are very acquired tastes, that's for sure.
Texting with my kids, I laboriously click out a misspelled text of 10 words and within seconds get a response that's 4 paragraphs!
Helen is of Russian blood (Mironof). She and a much younger Liam Neeson met on the set and were a thing for several years. She is an avid naturist.Just rewatched John Boorman's Excalibur. Known and loved this film for many years.
I never realized that the actress playing Morgana was a young Helen Mirren. Crikey.
This will take me some time to process. Y'all carry on.
Editm..she is also skilled with a whip.

Helen Mirren and Joan Collins were the bad girls of British Cinema and TV.
I noticed her acting talent in ‘Long Good Friday’ with Bob Hoskins in the 80’s. Great film about London gangsters bumping up against the IRA. Haven’t seen it in years but I’ll bet it holds up on the strength of the performers.
IEM, hearing aids, cameras for another YouTube channel and e-bicycles are on my mind.
Why we can’t live intelligently together still blows my stack.
