On a flight from LA back to ATL last night I watched the HBO movie "Taking Chance" with Kevin Bacon and it was absolutely great. Very little politics in the movie and it was really moving in their depiction of the courage of our military and the incredible respect they show for each and every fallen soldier. If you haven't seen the movie and love your country and our great military you will really like it. Kevin Bacon deserves an award for his role.

I could not help but ponder the dichotomy of how HBO, the home of people Bill Maher, Bryant Gumbel, pornography, etc., actually does movies like this one or the Band of Brothers or Pacific series. I could never have the channel at home but it was great to see them producing something like this.

Speaking of the Pacific series, I have caught a couple of episodes while staying in a hotel and was wondering what others thought. For some reason it just doesn't capture me like the Band of Brothers series did. I can't articulate what seems to be missing for me. Anyone else seen this series and I'm curious what you think.
