The Lone Ranger - Movie Review

I can only describe The Lone Ranger as being manic-depressive.  When you weren't laughing out loud you were just so depressed.  Which is a refreshing change from what the majority of movies put you through nowadays.  The combination kept you interested and entertained throughout.  And, I can say with certainty that if you loved the classic version of the Lone Ranger TV series you won't be disappointed with the movie version.  In fact, you might even like it more (I do).  Though different from the old version it stays true.

The soundtrack was interesting to say the least.  It started off with a violin type of music and ended up with the old theme song.  I rather enjoyed it because when the music started playing and the first scene was some carnival scene with a Ferris Wheel I thought for sure that the movie would be completely different from the series and not altogether good, but I'm more than happy with the outcome.

I do have one question, how did Tonto get out of jail?  However, I'm fine not knowing.  There are plenty of ways it could have happened and life is best lived with a bit of mystery (I suppose the majority of people would wonder about that crow, in my opinion some things are best left unsaid).

My Birthday

So, yesterday was my birthday and despite it also being father's day it wasn't that bad. We made root beer floats and ate dinner at The Three Lion's Pub which is now my favorite restaurant.  The food was delicious and the decor was quite amusing.

One notable thing was the card I received from my bro, the last line said, "Wishing you peace and comfort at this sad time".  I took it as a joke but he had just assumed it said "Happy Birthday".  Which is a warning for you all, read the whole card before you give it to someone!
