I just re-watched The Sting for the first time in many years. Still an awesome movie, but...

It was made in 1973, set in 1936.

1973 - 1936 = 37
2009 - 1973 = 36

That's kind of weird.

Also, I wish I had any chance of ever being that cool.

You've noticed that history is slowing down. Take some Soma, you'll be fine.

You are so already that cool. In the real-person not-stupid cool kind of way.

Well, depending on who specifically was cool. Otherwise, you're that cool in the real-person-like-your-own-self way.

Oh, I as well...

One of my fave spots in Santa Monica is the carousel where Paul N & Robert R first meet in that film (http://www.flickr.com/photos/8146112@N06/3060621050/in/set-72157610135076650/). I last rode it just a few months ago...and smiled thinking of The Sting. ('Twas a 20 minute walk from where I lived for a dozen years before moving to the PacNW.)
