I loved Charismatic.

Danzig, I agree, you can't take away what he accomplished the last two decades, but now he kind of reminds me of an aging "A list" movie star trying to still play the romantic lead roles. DWL doesn't have the stock he once did (for whatever reason; I don't know any of that kind of stuff) but I feel like he's so eager to still be there in the TC races that recently he puts in horses that don't have a chance to win because it's hard to let go of when he was the top of the game. My take on it, anyway. Lord knows I'm no psychologist, for which the psychology profession should be grateful.

Not, of course, that I'm thinking of any specific aging movie stars, of course.

How's filming on "Indiana Jones 4" coming, I wonder?
