The Green Blade Rises-did we know already about this movie?

[LincolnMan]

I was looking for something in Wiki when I came across an entry about this movie about Lincoln. If it's been brought up already, forgive me. Here's the posting on it from Wiki:

The Green Blade Rises, produced by Terrence Malick, Nicolas Gonda and Charley Beil is currently in production. The film is written and directed by A.J. Edwards and focuses on Lincoln's upbringing, showing the events and tragedies that forged him into the man he became. Jason Clarke is in negotiations to portray Thomas Lincoln, Abraham's father, while Diane Kruger is to portray Sarah Bush Lincoln, Abe's stepmother. Wes Bentley and Brit Marling have also signed on as Lincoln's first teacher and as Nancy Lincoln.

I can laugh because I forget everything. And lose everything.

I just have to tell you about someone who lost her cell phone and found it in the refrigerator. The same person was late coming to a Christmas party because she could not find her keys and finally had to use her husband's car. Part of the evening included a gift exchange. When the person who received her gift opened the package, there were the keys! The receiver tried to claim the car, but it didn't work. Top that...

Leaving a cell phone in a refrigerator is (I guess) somewhat better than a certain someone leaving a cell phone outside, overnight to get rained on and become completely useless.

Or, perhaps, putting it in your pocket, and then deciding to wash all the laundry ...

Well, at least we haven't lost our marbles!

Bill,
This reminds me of the "marble theory"--whereby you become employed and are given a large jar of marbles. Each time you make an important decision on the job, you remove one marble from the jar. When you have lost all of your marbles, you retire. Worked for me!

Y'all are a riot.

So you can truly say all of all your marbles are gone!
