TV trays stationed appropriately as little soldiers with our chosen dinners of pizza with peperoni and Greek salad, and one lone calzone all from what Hubby had picked up from our favorite coal fired pizza place sans the full moon, Bocca Lupo!
Our lunch had been very tasty too at the Fish Market Restaurant at Fishville. I had had the Mother's Day special of rainbow trout healthy broiled, four ounce, with rice pilaf and cole slaw, unsweet iced tea with extra lemons, Number One's gal had fried cod and mashed potatoes and cole slaw too with a Coke. Number One Son had fried cod sandwich with lettuce and tomato and fried onion rings and a Coke. Hubby had a seafood casserole, cole slaw and fried onion rings with a coffee back with sugar.
So two slices of the medium pie with peperoni and my club soda while watching that award winning movie was not too shabby or foolish an idea and we all had fun in spite of the movie's extremely serious content about the beginnings of the treatment mal and good of AIDS. Matthew McConaghey lost around fifty to play the gritty character of Ron Woodruff an electrician/rodeo rider, after being a straight guy diagnosed with AIDS he is treated with a preferred drug of the time AZT and told he has 30 days to live. Through a bunch of realizations that his coke snorting and alcohol abuse is magnifying his symptoms and killing him faster he ends up being cared for by an eventual sympathetic woman doctor, played by Jennifer Garner as Dr. Eve Saks and Jared Leto as the gay friend to both.
Below is another synopsis from Wikki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dallas_Buyers_Club
"In 1985, Dallas electrician and rodeo cowboy Ron Woodroof is diagnosed with AIDS and given 30 days to live. He initially refuses to accept the diagnosis, but remembers having unprotected sex with an intravenous drug-using prostitute. Ron quickly finds himself ostracized by family and friends, gets fired from his job, and is eventually evicted from his home. At the hospital, he is tended to by Dr. Eve Saks, who tells him that they are testing a drug called zidovudine (AZT), an antiretroviral drug which is thought to prolong the life of AIDS patients—and which is the only drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for testing on humans. Saks informs him that in the clinical trials, half the patients receive the drug and the other half are given a placebo, as this is the only way they can determine if the drug is working."

To me the story in spite of colorful expletive use and graphic sex scenes it told a story of how the beginnings of a killer virus was being handled by the patients wanting a better way to solve the mysteries of how to find natural and healthy logical nearly homeopathic ways working in tandem with changing the dosing of harsh FDA approved drugs like AZT and so the AIDS cocktail was born and people of every possible ways of contraction could realize that they now would no longer have a death sentence and hope could be had.
Many of the ideas of treating AIDS with vitamins and healthy eating non-processed foods are working for so many other autoimmune diseases today like Multiple Sclerosis, balances have been made with both old ideas and new methods in medicine and I personally find that there is hope for so many diseases that have no cure and that there is no written rhyme or reasoning documented yet in medical volumes...
On that note of much hope; I found that my cringe factor issues with most R rated movies I can look past some of my still prudish thinking and learn more. Allow me to be the first then to wish all of you a very happy good night and to kindly wish all of you a very happy good night and kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
PS Number One Son and his gal are both over forty, so they were old enough to see the movie.
No harm, no foul and if you are eating while watching a R rated movie with adult children less blushing ensues! LOL! Bottom line: a great flick, highly recommended to see with an open mind and a learning curve to boot! Wish I took notes; many useful logical ways to help many chronic ills!
