The 40 Year Old Virgin is proof that comedies can still be funny. Sadly‚ movies like this‚ with a kind of consistent humor‚ come out too rarely.

The Old Man and The Sea: An Analysis I read this book for the first time in high school and I remembered it just as well as if I had read it yesterday. As I read it again I remembered some of the same language‚ especially the old man talking to his hands. Cursing his left hand when it cramped up on him like it was a separate part of himself and had a mind of its own was particularly interesting.
