Where the Red Fern Grows Gets me every time.

I've watched through season 6 via Netflix but there isn't anything available after that :( Very very funny show!

I didn't care for it. It seemed awful dreary and sleepy.

Movies with sequels I could have done without: Poltergeist The Princess Diaries Scooby-doo (What IS this tripe??) Meh. I liked it :) The part at the end with the slicey-slicey, oh look your head fell apart! is lame, I grant you. But I liked the idea of the covens and the different elders...

I have a new rudeness story. Myself and the lady that sits next to me find it very hard to work sometimes because we sit in the middle of a thoroughfare on our floor, and nearby is where the accounting people all stand around and BS and talk loudly. So we put up signs (with our supervisor's...

I thought people who drove SUVs and minivans were doing so because they could a.) block the view of everyone in a smaller car, b.) take up 2-3 parking spaces at public places, and c.) block traffic because they nose the dang things out into the middle of intersections so that they can turn...

Ahh such a lucky lady :( I always feel like crud when the lady whose husband sends her flowers all the time "just because" walks by with another beautiful bouquet.. Ah well! There are much worse things in life to never receive!

Speaking as a woman who very very rarely gets flowers, I am ecstatic when I do get them. Of course, in an ideal world, we women would get flowers on a normal day when nothing special or extraordinary is going on, just because we are soft, pretty, lovely visions of warmth, goodness, and light...

Steven Lawhead's Song of Albion series. About two modern day British universtity students who go back in time (to another plane? Been a while, I forget exactly...) where they become ensconced in celtic culture. Excellent series. My favorite, though, is Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series, and...

You know what's great about taking College Writing as one of your last college courses? You'll sail through it with one hand behind your back, AND you'll blow the prof away. College Writing profs expect to have nothing but freshmen who can't write for nothin', and then they get you, the...

I hear ya Queen D. I was a non-trad also - I was 20 when I started at community college, and didn't graduate from real college until I was 26 (had to work full-time all the way through and sometimes 2 jobs, and go to school part-time, which is why it took so long). I never lived on campus, I...

I'm looking forward to this also, I liked the old film even though it was super cheesy. Don't recall a dog though, I'm assuming it's in the novel. The showtimes. Does that mean it's a 4-part series, or that it's a 2-part series shown twice, or a 1 1/2 hour film shown 4x in one night? Confusion!

I'm more turned off by Matt Damon than by the director. I dunno, I just don't think Matt has made good film choices in later years (what was UP with that stupid siamese twin thing?!?) and so if he's in a film, I tend to think it's gonna suck. Feel the same way about Ben Affleck. Both of them...

Also the villain always has to spill the beans on his/her nefarious plot to the hero, when the hero is tied up/chained up/in a cage/etc, because the villain is very sure that the hero will never, ever escape, and so it's ok to tell him/her how they screwed it up for everybody. (Then, of course...

I am 95% sure I recall a conversation between Ron and Hermoine where Ron asked about the house elves disapparating, and Hermoine saying they were an exception because they're not using magic, but a natural ability. If I had ambition, I'd go back and try to find the passage, but I ... don't.

That's not good news, that stuff isn't selling as well. I'm going to be putting an old engagement ring from 2000 on Ebay soon (since the jerks here at work keep ripping the for sale sign down from the bulletin board - wth is up with that?!?) and I was hoping to get some nice money from it.

If you are dismantling or disabling a bomb or other explosive device, if you have more than 5 seconds left on the clock and think you have successfully disarmed it, you either a.) sped it up, or b.) made it pause before it begins again. The disarm never works unless you have 1 or 2 seconds left...

I agree, very good series :) I have adored David Eddings since I was a preteen. Unfortunately, I'm no longer reading his new stuff. I tried this latest Elder Gods series book 1, and got very frustrated with this same occurrence over and over: Character 1: Hi everyone, I'm a new character...

I actually saw all the seasons but season 4, because I'm stuck watching them via Netflix (Wed night is gaming night for me). Waiting (not so) patiently for season 4 on DVD. If you're going to reveal how it ended, please put a spoiler alert for me :) I adore the series, although I'm a little...

Oh HECK yeah! Space Herpes > all!!
