The best things in life are free…

Like the title says, the best things in life are free.  I wrote about that awesome and classic Star progressive reloader a friend gave to me (you can read the story about bringing it back to life on our Resurrections page).  The Star is producing high quality .38 Special ammo and I am thoroughly enjoying it.

Here’s something different…two of the best movies ever that you can watch for free on YouTube.  It’s coincidental, I guess, that they both use the number 12 in their titles.  They are both great movies.  Classics, in my opinion.

The first one is one I just learned about on the same day I picked up the Star reloader.   It’s 12 Angry Men, and I read about it in a Wall Street Journal review.  There’s a recent remake of the original movie (I haven’t seen it), there’s what I thought was the original movie (the one you might have seen in which Henry Fonda plays the lead role), and there’s this one, the actual original 12 Angry Men.  Having never seen it before I watched it the night I read about it in the WSJ, and I was blown away by how good it is.

12 O’Clock High is another classic movie that’s free on Youtube.  It’s one that’s used in executive leadership training programs in the corporate world, and it’s one of the best movies ever for exploring management and leadership issues.  It’s a wonderful movie, and I think you’ll like it.

And this blog…it’s free, too, as you know.  So is an online subscription to it.  You can sign up below.
