Happy Thanksgiving everyone! (And for those of you that are not in the United States, I hope you’ll join us in spirit and give thanks for your various blessings!)
I’m thankful for my family, my friends, my work, Reggie, my home, yesterday’s snow, that yesterday’s snow has melted, and so many other things. I hope you [...]

Finally! FINALLY!
Finally a good episode of LOST. And the cherry on top…the preview for next week’s episode about Kate looks good also!
However, the preview could be a set up; not as if they haven’t done that before. The teaser for next week starts with weak, ill, and wounded Sawyer mumbling "I love her." Jack [...]

Several years ago, back when I worked for a mid-sized corporation, I had to work pretty late the day before Thanksgiving and I wasn’t happy about it. I wanted to go home, like almost everyone else on my floor had already done, but my boss didn’t think it was kosher for us to leave a [...]

I hoped to review the latest adaptation of Pride and Prejudice tonight, but I find I am just too tired. So, I’ll just post a few comments now and save the rest for later.
The other day I said:
“Can you tell that I’m not expecting this to be the greatest movie? I have the feeling that [...]

A few days ago I talked about ice and construction on Illinois roads. A lot of the current construction is to convert Chicago-land highways to open-road tolling. This means millions of dollars and lots of congestion to convert the toll plazas. As far as I can tell, all of this is being wasted to convert [...]

According to VideoETA, the latest version of Pride and Prejudice will be available on DVD in March.
I’ve never seen this website before, so I don’t know how accurate they are or how they make their estimates. In other words, I don’t know if they’ve based this on studio information or speculation based on DVD [...]

Eight years ago when I got Reggie, my Miniature Schnauzer, I knew there would be some changes in my life. I’m sure you know what I mean, things like housetraining, trips to the pet store, going for walks no matter what the weather, getting smothered in love each time I walk in the door-whether I’ve [...]

I went to a movie this evening with a friend. We had a delightful time and enjoyed the movie EXCEPT for the annoying chattering from the couple behind us.
"What a large tree! It must be a sequoia."
All through the movie they whispered and talked. Luckily, their comments were very insightful.
"Have you ever seen such [...]

(NOTE: Possible spoilers!)
There’s been a hot debate brewing this week on the Internet because the U.S. release of Pride and Prejudice is 8 minutes longer than the U.K. release, including an additional final scene. (No word on what else makes the U.S. version longer, because the final scene isn’t 8 minutes long.) This final scene, [...]
