Unexpected Guests

Broke thru (in a good way)

Last night I finally broke through my block on my problem story. Yeah! Now I like it again. I'm just... just gonna sit on it for a few days at least, to make sure the new pieces I added yesterday seem smoothly integrated into the whole, not c...

Just got back from seeing THIS movie: And much to my amazement, given that I've read mixed reviews of this film, I loved it! It was great fun, and every bit as good as Indiana Jones 1 and 3. In my humble opinion. Harrison Ford pulled off a...

Stuff's gettin' better

nobody@vox.com(Carole) — Mon, 12 May 2008 14:18:17 -0700

The answer to yesterday's movie-trivia question is... Drum roll please... "Captain Ron"! Possibly one of the funniest movies, EVER. But, strangely enough, only people who like to sail seem to "get" this movie. If you dig sailing -- especial...

Name This Obscure Movie

nobody@vox.com(Carole) — Thu, 01 May 2008 19:49:16 -0700
