Published: February 08, 2012

Good morning everyone.  It’s finally Wednesday again.  For those of you who probably don’t know, I’m actually on day seven of a nine day straight stretch.  So it goes without saying that I’m more than ready for the weekend.  I don’t know about you all.  I’m sure there are some of you out there who have gone through just as many days straight as me, if not more so.  Those who do know how tough it is.  Thankfully I’m off this coming weekend.  And I will be sitting down to watch some more movies and check in on some more new music.  Speaking of movies, we’ve got another pick in the Sweethearts Cinema Countdown.  My wife actually got me to give today’s pick a chance originally.  Since the first time I watched it, it’s become a favorite of mine personally.  And I feel that it’s one of the best romantic movies made in the history of Hollywood (and there are actually a lot of good ones).  From 1987, starring Cary Elwes and Robin Wright, number five on the list is The Princess Bride.
