Ben Hur
Today I bought the DVD of Ben Hur, and sat down to watch the Chariot Race. As you do! Why else would you buy Ben Hur?
The 14 year-old son of a friend wandered in, watched it for 30 seconds, and said:
"That's just a rip-off of the pod race in Phantom Menace."
I laughed at him, long and hard. He still doesn't get it.
(this marks a return to my innocuous and empty journalling style.)

I grew up on a variety of medium, including the classics. I'll bet the kid doesn't know who John Wayne is either and has never watched "Singing in the Rain".
