Hey Bathrobe: I'll Meet You In The Driveway. And 3 Documentaries It Would Be Shameful Not To See

Since it is likely that only .001 percent of this blog will be read, I'll make it easy for you:

I saw someone in their bathrobe the other day. In front of their house, in the morning. The man was walking back into his house, when I saw him, including the flip-flops.
Technically, there is nothing wrong with this.
However, in actuality, I could not help thinking: what was happening outside of his house, to make him go outside in his bathrobe??

Here are 3 documentaries I highly recommend you do not miss. All were screened recently at a documentary film festival in Denton, TX.
Eleanore And The Timekeeper. This is about a 91-year-old mother and her mentally challenged son. Gosh I just hope I make it to 91.

Bat City USA. It discusses the work of biologist Merlin Tuttle. I've heard of the bats and the Congress Avenue bridge (in Austin, TX), but never seen them. Sounds batty to me. Watch the trailer here.

Dinner At The No-Go's. The filmmakers ignored those silly travel advisories, and ate dinner with the locals.

And of course, please also see Swingman.

The End.
Thank you for reading!
