midnight crossing movie

 around midday i watched a DVD movie, 'midnight crossing'. i recognized dan travanti, ned beatty, faye dunaway, and kit cattrall in it. i like thrillers, but i will admit that this movie wasn't that great. it was about searching for buried treasure on an island between cuba and florida, left there in 1959 around the time cuba went communist and one of the characters was in the navy. i think i was bored at times while watching it as the story didn't move all that fast. this was especially true when they on the boats and on the way to the island. faye plays somebody losing her vision due to glaucoma. the movie did remind me of 'fatal attraction' when a character looked dead but wasn't. i liked how there wasn't much to do today, and i watched some of the pro football games after the movie was over. first game was lions-vikings, and the vikings won. then i went on a walk and found 3 cents. the second game i saw was steelers-cowboys, and the steelers came from behind to win it. 'the simpsons' was about a british lady that was interested in homer. i also spent some time going through a 20-pocket expanding file and taking out many of the reminders of my failures when looking for work. and it reminded me to contact an advisor i met from the job fairs in burnsville to let them know that i finally 'got signed'. of course 'the purge' led to me running the shredder for the first time in a while, and i filled 2 bags. another big part of what was added to the 'shred box' was the mailings i got that tried to tell me who to vote for, and of course the election is over. when i was walking i went past a place that had a TV on, and it said that game show host alex trebek had died. the ending segment on '60 minutes', spoken by scott pelley, was about the election and the history of elections in america, reminded me of what i might have said myself.
