Thank you for 'Tim'

A brief note:
I finally got around to watching "Tim" tonight, a 1979 movie starring Mel Gibson.
Women everywhere must see this movie...not for plot, not for character development, not for phenomenal acting...no, women must see this movie to see Mel at the tender age of 23 wearing short-shorts and a muscle shirt, or (oh dear god, it's true) a speedo.
So, thank you Director Michael Pate for the gift of a 23 year old Mel Gibson leaping and running along the white sandy beaches of Australia, caught on tape for the world to cherish forever.

Heh, so if Bev suggests this movie, I'll be sure to tell her that I read some horrible review of it somewhere and that it would not be in our best interest to watch it... ;-)

Agreed, agreed. Young, trim, and a bit simple. He weeps, he smiles, he hops like a kangaroo. Thank you indeed.
