			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A week or two ago I decided to remove some of the movies (all DVD&#8217;s) in our collection that we have never watched, watched and are ready to share, or know that I would have some explaining to do to my son about why we own two full seasons of a TV show referred to as another name for a burrow.</p>
<p>Either way, they have been removed from the cabinet and are looking for a good home. Their fate rests in several options:</p>
<ul>
<li>a. Craigslist, ebay, Hastings, etc&#8230;</li>
<li>b. Freecycle</li>
<li>c. Give them to you</li>
<li>d. Donate them to some charity like GRACE (local group)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>[a]</strong> possibly takes more time than they are worth.<a id="more-126"></a><br />
<strong>[b]</strong> is a nice option but I am a little tired of the fact that the entire idea of Freecycle has turned into a wishlist for some. The last time I checked, I saw a &#8216;wanted&#8217; posting for a free xbox 360/playstation 3/nintendo wii. Not lying, they were looking for a free one for their kid. For those who don&#8217;t know, these gaming systems range from $250-$600 and that&#8217;s only if you could find a Wii right now. People, the idea is to share something that you aren&#8217;t needing with others for free instead of it ending up in a landfill. It ain&#8217;t a welfare line.<br />
<strong>[c]</strong> no explanation needed other than the fact that I don&#8217;t want them back. Unless I ask for one or two of them which is highly unlikely.<br />
<strong>[d]</strong> most likely fate for anything left over at the end.</p>
<p>I will give the first shot to you. First claim, first served. <strong>You want something from the list, comment and claim it.</strong> I reserve the right of refusal if I don&#8217;t think the movie would be a good fit for you. This is open to family/friends/strangers/etc. If you happen to be a stranger, a buck or two for shipping would be nice if I have to get it to you by USPS. Please be kind and don&#8217;t try and take them all, sharing is nice. </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Figured the best way to break them down would be by ratings. (Commentary could possibly follow)</p>
<p><strong>Watch with the kids (G):</strong><br />
Fiddler On The Roof - not sure how/where this came from. never seen it. side note: my wife went and saw the stage show one time and slept through. enough said.</p>
<p><strong>Maybe when they&#8217;re a little older (PG):</strong><br />
Field Of Dreams - I&#8217;ve questioned this move several times. good movie, just not really interested in it anymore. &#8216;if you build it, they will come&#8230;&#8217;<br />
Major League II - not as good as the first. if you miss out on it this time around, flip on TBS I&#8217;m sure they&#8217;ll play it by next Tuesday.</p>
<p><strong>Junior High, here we come (PG-13):</strong><br />
The Bachelor - never seen, some guy and some girl. chick flick.<br />
Bruce Almighty - not bad, probably won&#8217;t watch again. Jim Carrey<br />
Dirty Work - funny and crude. what else would you expect from Norm McDonald. He was classic as Burt Reynolds though&#8230;<br />
Drive Me Crazy - teen movie, girl from Sabrina the Teenage Witch (Nickelodeon version)<br />
Grumpier Old Men - the first was pretty funny. one of them is dead now, I think.<br />
In Love And War - chick flick. never watched. I see a pattern here<br />
Mr. &#038; Mrs. Smith - never watched. heard it&#8217;s decent though. Guessing it&#8217;s where the whole Brangelina got started.<br />
Pearl Harbor - again, never watched. I know the story though.</p>
<p><strong>Not Until You&#8217;re Out On Your Own (R):</strong><br />
Christmas Vacation 2 - they made a second one? says Not Rated so it&#8217;s going here. might be clean but I wouldn&#8217;t know<br />
Jerry Maguire - falls into the category of questioned by kid why I would own a movie I wouldn&#8217;t let him see. &#8216;you had me at hello&#8230;&#8217;<br />
The Mexican - watched it probably 6 years ago. don&#8217;t remember what it&#8217;s about. Pitt/Julia Roberts.<br />
The Patriot - Mel Gibson. American Revolution. blah, blah, blah, I want a movie to make me laugh not watch a bunch of people get killed. I can watch the news for that.<br />
Road Trip - see Jerry Maguire and multiply by 3<br />
When A Man Loves A Woman - do what? looks like meg ryan circa 1980. and the box says andy garcia. that&#8217;s as much as I know.</p>
<p>Let the games begin. Note: I&#8217;m not above being bribed but if there&#8217;s something on this list you are willing to bribe me for then you should either get out more or find better taste.
