    Harry Potter, of those out which do you like?

    Harry is also a teenager, and they are notorious for slacking off. He doesn't know any other world; the world of wizardry and Hogwarts is very normal to him. He doesn't know what it's like to be a "normal" Muggle teenager who only worries about acne and who to take to the prom. I think it's...

    Harry Potter, of those out which do you like?

    Order of the Phoenix is my favorite, for the one simple fact of the fireworks that Fred & George set off when they leave Hogwarts. The one that spells out "poo" ... god did I roll with laughter on that one. It's the only time in any of the books that I laughed out loud.

    PotC: At World's End (reactions, spoilers!)

    My husband and I weren't sure about the end. Did Elizabeth go to the Locker, is that where the beach is where she waits for him? I thought so, it looked like the same beach. But husband doesn't think so. After Will sailed away on the FD, the pirates gave her a dinghy and said "bye" like they...

    What is the deal with giving your kid a last name as a first name?

    On a board that I frequent that's mostly women, one woman had purposely named her daughter Miichael. Yes, 2 i's. She did it on purpose to be original. The thread was full of people begging her not to do it, that the kid will go through life with issues of people not finding her paperwork...

    Things that bug you (spin off of Goldmoon's thread)

    Argh! Amen! I waited and waited for the season finale of Lost, and then as soon as it started, the news station cut in with a "breaking story" of a severe thunderstorm warning in the other part of the state. Soooo for the rest of the show (the first part of which I missed), they had a little...

    Things that bug you (spin off of Goldmoon's thread)

    People who are too attached to their cell phones that they can't leave them closed during a 2 hour movie in a dark theater. You want to know what time it is? Wear a watch. Bored? Leave. People who are so focused on other people being "Nice" that they get all bent out of shape for the...

    Lost 2/23/07 Season Finale w/ spoilers

    I wonder ... maybe the "fast-growing Walt" means that the island is on a different time than the rest of the world? Naomi said that they had found the plane, and found all of the bodies at the bottom of the ocean. That takes time. She also told Charlie that he's famous now, and has a...

    Lost 05/16/07 "Greatest Hits"

    Desmond has been struggling for some time with wanting to let Charlie die, so that they can all be rescued, and morally not being able to let him die if he can prevent it. That's why he hemmed and hawed about telling him to duck when the arrow was aimed at his throat. So Desmond could have...

    Who do you look like?

    I've been told Alicia Silverstone and Sharon Stone a la Sliver, but that was many moons and many pounds ago :P

    24: Season 6 (2007) Day 6 (*23):3:00 AM - 4:00 AM

    Um so she just hung around like nothing was wrong for the next 14 years? No woman's gonna do that. She didn't look like she was being held against her will when we first met her. I'm still on the side of Jack being the daddy.

    Lost 05/16/07 "Greatest Hits"

    My thought is that they were pregnant and ran from the Others so that they could try to have their babies without dying or being injected with who-knows-what. I'm thinking there's babies or small children down there - maybe since it's offshore, the curse against pregnant women doesn't count -...

    Lost 5/2/07 "The Brig" (spoilers)

    This is along the lines of what I've been thinking. Remember when Locke and the green-eyed boy who loved his stepsister (name? I'm pregnant, I forget things easily...) were exploring and found the airplane? Suddenly Locke woke up one morning and his legs wouldn't work. I think that Locke...

    24: Season 6 (2007) Day 6 (*22):2:00 AM - 3:00 AM

    Yeah, I couldn't really believe it when the Chinese attacked CTU. Uh .. SO last season.. I think Josh is Jack's kid. They've already hinted at a romantic association between Marilyn and Jack. Dunno if that's been discussed yet this season here .. I've been away for a bit. Spoiler: Wasn't...

    non-cutsy anime

    I liked "Hellsing" although there weren't a lot of episodes. I second "Noir" - there's a cutesy character but the storyline is darker.

    Lost: Season 3 02/07/07

    I'm curious about the Alex - Ben - Danielle thing. Danielle (the crazy French lady) says that her daughter's name was Alex and she was stolen as a baby. Then we meet Alex who is in the clutches of the Others, but is apparently Ben's daughter. Why not change her name, if she were abducted as a...

    Heroes Season 1(#15)---2/12/07-'RUN!'

    He just lost his job, isn't doing too well as a bodyguard, has an uncertain economical future, and also just found out his wife is pregnant. I thought what he did was very understandable - perhaps dumb, but certainly understandable.

    [Feb] What are you reading?

    Just finished "Love and Other Near Death Experiences" by Mil Millington. Two thumbs up! Very funny :) Still working on book 7 (I think) of the "Left Behind" series. Get a little tired of the rhetoric sometimes and put it down for a while. Re-reading "Strangers" by Dean Koontz. Re-reading...

    24: Season 6 (2007) Day 6 (*6):12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

    Same. And I'm the one who didn't get "The Sixth Sense" until the very end. So I'm the gullible one. But I've been watching this show since the beginning and I know how it works now. I had a friend in the room who'd never watched the show and I said "It's Morris" the minute they said there...

    Vanguard:SOH

    I've been beta testing V:SoH for over a year and I really like it. I'm an old-school EQ veteran and have been waiting for a game that I like. This time around, I'm part of a great large guild pre-launch (Leviathan, going to be on Flamehammer server), and I'm really looking forward to playing a...
