dirty rotten scoundrels movie

 in the afternoon i watched another DVD movie, another recent purchase from a resale shop, 'dirty rotten scoundrels'. i recognized steve martin in it. i hadn't seen it before, but recall the previews on TV, to the tune of 'comfort and joy', where one line was 'michael caine collects their revenue'. so it must have been released around christmas. the ending was long but that is what made the movie, as it was the bet between the rival con artists. it kept me guessing, and it didn't end the way i expected it to. i was thinking more than once, 'so is it done now?' and it wasn't. i have enjoyed conmen movies before as i like seeing how they pull it off. in fact there was even one called 'the grifters'. there was multiple scenes at a roulette wheel in a casino. in the morning i went on a long walk and when i got back i picked up a 6-pack of kool-aid from the family dollar. i was bummed that there was very little toothpaste on the shelves, and i got some ideas on where i could go for what i was looking for. then it was lunchtime, had some pizza, then turned the radio on to the baseball game, st. paul saints were playing in columbus. it was a wild game, saints won 11-10, i was laying down so i missed some of it as i fell asleep for a while. then i put in the movie. and then it was time for the evening meal, a pot pie. i also finished the gelato from aldi. i was trading text messages with my college roommate, trying to get something figured out for next weekend. during my walks i found 2 dollars 28 cents.
