Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2012" club. I saw 32, which is rather delightful.. I beat Mr. Glass on free films but he narrowly inched me out on total films seen.

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2011" club. I saw 20, interestingly enough. My more realistic target was to see more free films than TheyCallMeMrGlass. I lost.

I don't think anybody mentioned the death of Samuel Wanjiru - the man who Olympic gold medal at Beijing in 2008 for his performance in the marathon. He fell from a balcony at his home, and he was a mere 24. Obviously with our Olympics coming up, it is a big blow for the sport of distance running. May he rest in peace.

Gutted about this. Saw him when I was four at Wembley Stadium for Summerslam 1992. His matches with Ricky Steamboat (Wrestlemania III) and the Ultimate Warrior (Wrestlemania VII) were legendary. R.I.P, sir. "Oooooooooooooh yeeeeeeeeeeeeeh!"

I'm not sure that Joseph Brooks should be listed in the Rest in Peace topic, there is usually no smoke without fire!
