My wife absolutely adores this movie. In part that’s because a cute little boy with incredible hair knows the weight of a human head. The other part is that Jerry Maguire reminds her of me. If you haven’t seen this movie, watch it and see why this is such a big compliment. Thanks for looking
I’m having a hard time remembering this film but wasn’t he a self centered jerk in the beginning?

He was in the backstory. The story proper really begins with his awakening and follows his quest to become a better man. It’s Tom Cruise’s best film. If Jerry was lighting up a MIG in a clean, late model F-14 it would be the best film by anyone. Show me the sidewinders!
Cathy loves this movie and that character, the more so because he’s based on a real person. When Cathy says something like that to me I feel like I need to live up to it.

Remember. We’re all young once, make the most of it. Like a friend of mine said to another, who refused to update his avatar – Hell, we were all good looking in our forties, Brad. You show up at the reunion and nobody’ll know who the hell you are ’cause all your ex girlfriends that look like somebody’s grammaw’ll be looking for that skinny guy with all the hair. And I’m tellin’ you, as a kindness, you ain’t that guy.

I’m sixty three. I still have all my hair and I’m still making the most of it. Are you really commenting on this post?

Yes. I had hair in my early sixties. But that was the decade it sort of backed up and thinned out. At 72 I know better. Even the old Hollywood farts need wood putty make up and blown out lights. And hair. I did a post several years ago about how all I wanted for Christmas was Rock Star hair. You know, the short hair guys, Shatner, Selleck, Hanks et al, they can keep in a drawer. You get to Cooper and Tyler, even St Jeff of Beck, those rugs hanging off a coat rack in the dark would scare the hell out you.

All true that. I’m happy to have my hair but I’m not going to get too upset when and if it starts to go, So I say now, anyway.
