I did not get to watch much TV over the weekend. In fact I probably only watched a few hours. But what I did catch was great television. The first thing I saw was an old movie. IT was that crummy TV time....8:40 pm You don't feel like doing anything else for the day.....and all the shows and movies have already started. I usually bug into the food channel for 20 minutes of....food. Anyway, I just so happened to click on the public channel and a movie caught my eye. It was "The Apartment"
It was a 1960 black and white movies. It started Fred Macmurray, Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine. I looked it up this morning....it won 5 Oscars.
Fred MacMurray.....when he is scolding Jack lemmon....close your eye's...it could o0f been a scene out of My Three Sons....scolding Chip!
Jack Lemmon...as always in my opinion....over acts. But this was the best I seen of him. I also like him when he plays an old crabby guy in other movies.
Lastly....Shirley MacLaine...one that I have never liked in a movie....she was not only great...but a real knockout for the 60's....
Then no tube until late Sunday afternoon. I was going to see if I could catch 60 minutes. I very rarely watch 60 minutes anymore....Church is at 5:30...but since I went to early Mass this week...I was able to indulge in my old ways.
So I turn on CBS and of course it is delayed by whatever sport happens to be running on CBS Sunday. It happens to be the Byron Nelson Championship....the what?...anyway...two guys that I never heard of our duking it out in the playoffs of this round. In the few minutes of it that I watched....Adam Scott birdied the third playoff hole to win the match. Not juts birdied it.....he sunk a 49 foot Putt.
Lastly....60 Minutes...Absolutely a great story on Antonin Scalia.. watch the video below if you missed the story. This guy is GREAT! Like his views or not....you cannot dislike the man!
