Welcome

So this is me...Vicky Jakubowski. As my friends well know, I am opinionated and it just seems natural to share my big mouth with the world. My goal is to simply talk - nothing earth-shattering, just my thoughts on movies, entertainment, and fun stuff. This idea grew out of the movie reviews I share via FaceBook... I own over 1100 movies - from Metropolis to the latest Harry Potter. My mother introduced the classics of the 30s and 40s to me while Dad inundated me with John Wayne and action movies. So I like nearly every genre - and yes, I was an actress in a past life so I tend to love show business.



Please just have fun, share your thoughts, and enjoy the ride.

Life is too short, make the most of it

Although I have been on this planet more than four decades, I do not pretend to have all of the answers. Heck, I don't even have all of the questions. But I do know that one must find a way to make the best of one's life. Don't dwell on the negatives of your life. The traumas you may have experienced are a part of you but do not let them own you. We each have our secrets. We each have our horrors. We each have our sorrows. Many of us have significant health issues. But when the dark side takes over, when you let the evil eat at your heart...your spirit dies. Don't let the negatives in your life rule your life. You are too special. Guess what, the glass isn't half empty...it's brimming with possibilities. I'm not some cock-eyed optimist, just a gal who finally realized that I have much more to offer this world and I'm not going without a fight. So stop being a ninny and find something worth living for.

What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god! (Hamlet)

Oh, and THE answer is indeed 42. (Thanks to Douglas Adams)
