If you are looking for a different kind of movie that both you and your hubby will enjoy, and, strangely enough, Becoming Jane didn't do the trick, then I must recommend King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. This documentary follows the efforts of Steve Wiebe, husband and father of two, as he seeks to break the Donkey Kong high score world record. Excluding the disturbing amount of time Wiebe spends practicing DK, thereby not with his family, he is one of the most likable guys on the planet. When Matt mentioned this movie to me I dutifully feigned interest, but by the end of the flick, I was welling up with tears and shouting at the television. Even if you know nothing about video games, Wiebe is sure to tug at a heartstring or two, and the other characters' eccentricities will keep you laughing. So go watch it and tell me what you think.

Is that a picture of Matt and Jake on the step? Or is that from the movie? I tried to blow it up, but it didn't help. I'm guessing the movie?
Okay, I'll give it a whirl!
Billy Mitchell is a CREEP! Go Steve!
