Triple Header
I didn't know what to do with myself today as I'm so used to having football games on the telly as I'm working from home. But now the season has finished, I have to come up with an alternative plan. How about not having the telly on at all? No, don't be stupid. I don't know if this will be a regular thing, but today I had a trio of great films on in the background - Shawshank Redemption, Stand by Me and Speed. Not really my choice, but I happened to notice they were on while I was channel-hopping. The problem was that these films are so good that you just end up watching them, and don't get any work done. Doesn't matter how many times I've seen them - especially Shawshank Redemption, which always seems to be on - it's simply impossible to not just stop what you're doing and watch them, especially when you know a great scene is about to come up. Therefore, I need to come up with some background films - films that you don't need to concentrate on, but provide a welcome distraction from your computer monitor when needed. A great example - Airplane. I need to identify more films like this.
