[The Scenic Route] Exciting

Hi there!

I hope you are enjoying The Scenic Route as much as I am!  This post has expanded my horizons, introducing me to new words and works of art, plus I'm reading more books and reading my bible more consistently again.

Art/Graphics/Photography Appreciation---

"Before you get too excited, no: the "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie has not started casting yet, and an incredibly handsome actor has not been chosen to play Christian Grey.  A professor from the University of Central Lancashire has used police technology to composite an image of what most people imagine Christian to look like." Excerpted from web article Shades of Grey:  What does Christian Grey look like?

I personally think this artist rendition is a bit weird and the man is not very attractive.  My opinion is that Channing Tatum or Matt Bomer should be cast as Christian Grey, since Brad Pitt is too old (how can that be?!) to play this character.  Those of you who are reading the book (see below), which actor do you think should play Christian Grey?

Mind Stimulating Book Club---

Everyone seems to be either reading or talking about the July Read:  Fifty Shades of Grey Trilogy by E.L James; I even saw the book at Costco!  I don't know about you, but racy does not even begin to describe this book, but sardanapalian could fit the bill.  Mind stimulating or otherwise, I'm almost done with the first book, so we'll see if I  get through the series in a couple of weeks!

Verse Meditation---
"May your kisses be as exciting as the best wine, flowing gently over lips and teeth." Song of Solomon 7:9 NLT

What is your favorite part of The Scenic Route?  Let me know because it's exciting to know that someone is getting something out of this. Thank you for visiting and being a part of my journey!

See you later!
