I wish I could refute this, but I really don't remember Mike crying at any movies-- though he's admitting to 'welling up' occasionally. I remember crying at the Joy Luck Club, and most recently I welled up to In America.
I won't fess up to any, but

maybe something wrong happened when I first saw,

Old Yeller,
Saving Private Ryan,
Cinderella Man,
Joy Luck Club,
The Last Emperor


but maybe not. I am more emotional now than earlier, but must conceal it for fear of letting anybody know I have heart.

If you didn't cry at the end of Saving Private Ryan when he's standing at the Tom Hanks' characters grave and asking his wife to "tell me I'm a good man. Tell me I lived a good life", well then you're something less than human. Probably some sort of a psychopath, animal abusing serial killing freak. That's just a guess though.

Agreed. If that movie didn't move you, nothing will. Or you just might be an Islamic terroist.

LOL!

Movies just don't make me cry. The only times that I can think of in the last 15 years when I've had tears was at the birth of each of my kids.

Well, that and the first day of the 1999 NFL season when it occurred to me that John Elway really did retire.

Put me in the pussy camp. Sad, happy, triumphal, inspirational. I cry at them all. Mrs. myboynoah calls it one of my "endearing" qualities. Since I have so few, I'm holding on to it.

Whew, that was cathartic.

So, when do we don loin cloths, light the bonfire and run around it howling to the night in hopes of getting even more in touch with our inner selves?

It was a pilot program in my ward growing up. Increased YM attendance 400%. BRM caught wind of it and it was scrapped.

Sad, really.
