That is hysterical.

Yeah. I was being serious. He had the same black leather pants and black and red striped shirt on with black jacket.

Hey, Run was good though. He did It's Tricky and later came back out and did Walk This Way with Kid.

Ever see the show Run's House? The episode with Kid on there was pretty funny. He really did buy Run's kid a top dollar guitar and Run wouldn't let Kid drive his Phantom. Only he could actually get away with wearing that t-shirt.

Talking about Sparrow, I got around to watching At World's End. Big mistake. What a piece of crap.

I don't even know what that is... Can you give us the details, Wheelsucker?


Or is that the name of the last Pirates movie? They're just 1, 2, and 3 here...

Ratings don't mean much, IMO...I've seen R rated movies that were far less offensive, or excessive or whatever than a LOT of PG-13 movies. I hate PG13 because it could mean ANYTHING. And now I have a kid right in that "tween" phase... SO this site at least tells you EXACTLY why the movie got the rating.

Thanks.

Yeah, when it comes to PG-13, I've figured out that if it's an action movie it's likely fine (a little violence). But, stay away from PG-13 comedies. Too much sex talk and such.

Okay.

It's been exciting and all, but it's now noon, the headache is slowly subsiding, hubby will be home soon (and he's in much worse shape than me I'm pretty sure) and it's time to actually get in the shower and get dressed for the day. I'm headed off soon to meet a girlfriend I met on the net 4 years ago who's in town for the marathon (which she skipped cause a rain). Yeah, I'll be looking good and giving her a fine impression. When I talked to her last night from a bar she was like "Where are you?" When I said at a Kid Rock concert I think she started having second doubts about meeting me.

Peace out all.

Btw, if I ever disappear and don't let some of you know the reason, please call the cops on my behalf and let them know the number 1 suspect is thunder. Thanks.

Oh yeah, and whoever mentioned The Office awhile back . . . friggin' hysterical. Dwight kills me. Awesome ending . . . I love that show.

Hey, Bro...I read the book recently that The Ninth Gate was based on. The Dumas Club I think it was called. It was pretty good...it went into way more depth about those people being obsessed with the Three Musketeers and the plot paralleled that story more.

No, didn't know that was then. But, I think I'm in town the following weekend.

That friend of mine from highschool used to always play in the All Star game. Don't know if he stills come to town for that or not, but that would be interesting.

Btw, I guess now is the time I should relay to you and your family that we are friends with Manny Legace's bro-in-law and Manny's coming to town to visit them in a couple of weeks and he will be doing a private goalie session with my son and three other goalies.

Yes..please go away now...

I wasted enough time on here yesterday...and then find you on here this morning. It's nice here and I'm headed out too (hangover free )

Ciao, bella...

I have heard good things about The Club Dumas. It's on my list of things to read. I love the movie, mostly because of its feel and ambience. Very un-Hollywood-like film.

Yeah, it's creepy...

I find that, generally, if you read a book first, it's better than the movie, but if you've seen the movie first, you end up preferring it. Maybe that's just because you lose the suspense or whatever either way.

I have far less time to read than see a movie, though I don't do much of either. (She says from her computer... )

It was a fine example of seat of the pants plotting. Many things made no sense. To make matters worse, it was overly long. Just a horrible example throwing the kitchen sink and everything in it at the screen, hoping that the audience will be too distracted by the computer imagery to notice that the film makers must have a drug problem and cannot evaluate the quality of their own work.

Yeah... it was a mess... and unbelievable. But I quite like complicated multiple plots (even if they are poorly designed). Some sequels go the other way and have hardly any story at all behind the CGI effects.

I agree it wasn't particularly well done. But often the last in a series is when they cash in, isn't it... because they don't have to care about retaining fans for another one.
