There is a little spa near us that has gift certificates for massages, aroma therapy, etc  and had thought about getting my daughters each one as a Christmas gift.  Thought they could go together as they are good friends as well as sisters.  I am a bit of a country bumpkin myself and know nothing about these things.  Anyone tell me a little about what they might expect?  One daughter is pretty easy going, the other is a little more conservative.  I understand sheets covering the body, just wanted to make sure the massage is confined to extremities and back, nothing too personal.  TIA 

in line for a bathroo stall.  Finally a lady came out of onel and I went inside.  There was urine ALL OVER the seat.  I was just livid.  Okay lady, if you are too scared to sit down to pee because of the germs, then for crying out loud, WIPE UP YOUR PEE so it's not there for some total stranger to have to deal with.  Or hold it until you get home. 

Gross, gross, gross. 

You should've asked for your money back! 

I've met folks from all over the world and learned different types of cooking here and there...just home cookin'...nothin' fancy.

They're are so many different varieties of southern cooking as in every other part of the country.  I'm from NY and didn't know squat about jowl meat in the beans and the greens....salted everything...fat on top of fat...or deer for that matter.  I was voted least likely to ever whack, hack, pack and stack a deer for the freezer...and name the parts (including making deer sausage and bambi burgers with an old-timey hand grinder) and deer jerky.        

Lamb would be a delicacy on anyone's table these days and isn't usually used in southern cooking. 

Don't get me started on seafood...lived near the ocean and bay and I didn't realize how expensive that stuff was until I moved inland 'cause I just went out and fished or harvested it.       

Now, give me a bambi burger and I know what to do with that!  Cat  

based on what the critics say about it?  I still think back to when Titanic came out and Gene Shallet (sp?) on the Today Show absolutely hated it.  I think Premonition with Sandra Bullock looks like a good one, but the critics seem to hate it.  But they also didn't like We Are Marshall, and I thought that was a fabulous movie, so I don't usually take what the critics say into consideration when picking a movie.  Just wondering what anyone else's opinions were.

Have a great Friday!

Wish I could tell you which movie, but I naver made it out of the house.  There is an all day marathon on Entrprise on sci fi, and another on USA I think with Law and Order.  So, I caught up on the laundry while watching these things. Before you know it the day is almost over, and I haven't spent a dime LOL.  Hope you go to see your movie and enjoy it.  I have to start forcing myself to get out of the house.

Ever have one of those toons you just can't quite place.  I just heard a song by Duran Duran called Ordinary World.  I know this was in a movie and it is driving me absolutely bananas that I cannot remember what movie.  I'll post the link below to listen, but does anyone know what movie this song was in.  I thought Lost Boys or Flatliners, but I've looked up soundtrack and its not listed.  Anyone know?  It's a very pretty song and one of those haunting melodies that I can play over and over and not get tired of it.  Here's the link -
