Docu-mental? You’re not alone there. I recently signed on with Netflix and I, too, have been watching lots of documentaries. Love that streaming service.

Yea, each game is like 2 hours and some change. How he could stay focused doing that all day is pretty impressive.

I can hardly believe how many hours Wiebe spent playing that game during that one competition day; he must have been slamming the Red Bulls

I’ve got ‘My Kid Could Paint That’ presently in my queue. I’ll check out ‘Decline’ as well.

Mike from American Movie was hilarious . . . though Uncle Bill steals the show.

I loved American Movie, I saw it when it first hit the big screen. “Do you know what cathartic means, Mike?”

My brother has been pestering me to see the Kong doc for months now…

Also: have you seen The Decline Of Western Civilization? Great 1980 doc about the hardcore punk scene, I think centered on LA. Mostly a collection of miserable wrecks, it is nonetheless a fascinating look at some of the same Pistols sociology. Also, (though they don’t make an appearance) it makes the Dead Kennedys look positively Shakespearian.

Also as well: have you seen “My Kid Could Paint That”? If not, check it out…

I’m writing like a lazy slob. Sorry.
