I thought it was so good.  I just went through an affair (my husband being the cheater, while I was pregnant), and she gave me such confidence.  I don't know, I just really liked the movie.  Thought it was great.

Saw it yesterday, it was a very good movie.

There is also a good movie hopefully coming out soon. sm
it is more about maternity care in the US and how horrible it has evolved in the last decade or so. Lake and director Abby Epstein explore the intervention of modern medical practices in the birth process, which has led to alarming rates of drug-induced labor and cesarean sections performed in America. it actually has ricki lake in there too with her home births.

Q: How many women with MENOPAUSE does it take to

change a light bulb?



A: One! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY?

Because no one else in this house knows

HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know

that the bulb is BURNED OUT!! They would sit

in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out.

And, once they figured it out,

they wouldn't be able to find the

light bulbs despite the fact that

they've been in the SAME CUPBOARD

for the past 17 YEARS!

But if they did, by some

miracle of God, actually find

them 2 DAYS LATER, the chair

they dragged to stand on to

change the STUPID light bulb would
STILL BE IN

THE SAME SPOT!!!!!

AND UNDERNEATH

IT WOULD BE THE

WRAPPER THE

STUPID LIGHT

BULBS CAME IN!!!

BECAUSE NO ONE

EVER CARRIES OUT

THE GARBAGE!!!!

IT'S A WONDER WE

HAVEN'T ALL

SUFFOCATED FROM

THE PILES OF

GARBAGE THAT

ARE A FOOT DEEP

THROUGHOUT THE

ENTIRE HOUSE!!

IT WOULD TAKE

AN ARMY TO

CLEAN THIS 

HOUSE!

I'm sorry.... What was the question?


Hillary not enough of a good woman (sm)

Another wise woman with good taste! SM

Wasn't someone who played in the movie "As Good As It Gets" named Ardell (a male)?

Is 9 cpl, based on a 55 black character line good pay?
I think I explained that okay. Basically, a 55-character line, black, and pay is 9 cpl per line. I was not sure how this compared to 65-character line with spaces at 8 cpl etc. Any help out there?
It's an online diary. (nm)

Black widows are shiny black, females have red spot
There aren't many males around. After the mate, the females eat them lol.

We have black widows galore here in Calif. I actually keep frogs in my yard (provide ponds for them) and they have made a big impact on the insect population.

Remember to always wear shoes (something I try to do).
What is good to clean an LCD computer screen that wont harm the black plastic monitor itself.

Therapy for what? Because I don't support any woman who spouts an idea because she is a woman?

And you fall into the "therapy" or drug routine?  Why not address the issues.  You want women to support women no matter how ridiculous the idea is or you want to support a truth, no matter who tells it.  The rest of the "therapy" crap you post is BS.  You must know that by now.


try eliminating diary products from your diet for 4-5 days and see if it helps. sm
usually it could be something you are ingesting causing it and milk is a #1 problem.
have ya'll seen this movie sm
called Napolean Dynamite? If you have teens, maybe you have heard of it.  If you wanna rent a movie this weekend that is totally mindless and just plain funny, rent this one! OMG, my 14 YOD has watched it four times since we've had it.  It's just funny!
So are you saying you actually saw the movie?
If you did, then you would know they would never have gotten married if society had accepted their lifestyle and they did not have to fear for their lives.
It was a TV movie, first
After getting work at Universal (legend is he sorta snuck in), Spielberg was given Duel as his first directing job. It was a TV movie (I remember seeing it way back then). It was later released to theatres in 1983, most likely due to Spielberg's success with ET and other films at the time.

It's remarkable how simple a film it was (i.e., low budget). Only about 3 actors, with Weaver in every scene. It reminds me of a Stephen King type suspense, although none of the movies made of King's work has done nearly as well.

Some interesting comments about the film can be found at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067023/?fr=c2l0ZT1kZnx0dD0xfGZiPXV8cG49MHxrdz0xfHE9ZHVlbHxmdD0xfG14PTIwfGxtPTUwMHxjbz0xfGh0bWw9MXxubT0x;fc=1;ft=206;fm=1


any movie must see and
I highly recommend The Machinist, it kept me interested as to whats going on until the very end, and I had to watch it again to catch the little hints.  I just rented and saw Red Eye, HORRIBLE...some parts were predictable and others were ridiculous.  Don't tell me other passengers don't notice when someone gets head-butted hard enough to draw blood.  Big disappointment.  Anyone else?
probably his best movie!
It showed the insurance companies for what they are; money-grubbing killers.

I think anyone here who thinks this is a good system should try to put herself (or himself) in place of those denied a claim for a procedure to save a life.

It is callous and disgusting. As I said before, health care should not be a for-profit business.
War of the worlds movie.
Has anyone seen the new War of the Worlds movie and did the big, mechanical monster remind you of a giant colonoscopy at times?  Just wondered if anyone else saw it and thought the same thing. ');>
This movie was so bad that we walked out of it!!

That's the scariest movie I ever saw! SM
I was 19 when I saw it - and I went home and slept in my parents' bed with them!
Sounds like a fun movie!

Wow! Wasn't that some movie!

I am so excited to see this movie.

I never saw his other 2 movies, but I am so glad he is making this, and I hope everyone will watch it. 


He mentioned on Oprah that health insurance companies are required by law to turn a profit (for the benefit of their stock holders), and in order to turn a big profit they feel they need to deny care to patients that need it.  The laws obviously need to be changed, and healthcare needs to be a right, not an outrageously expensive privilege!


What was that recent movie ...
Something where they were going to blow up a compound in Saudi, wasn't it?
did you see the movie Doc Hollywood?
it's about just that - it's sorta old, but so wonderful.
Outsourcing - the movie
Has anyone seen the recent movie Outsourcing?  My husband and I rented it last night and it was quite good, and very relevant to what's happening in the MT business, although the business in the movie was actually a call center.  It's a comedy about a call center manager whose whole department gets outsourced to India and he is sent over there to train his replacement and get the whole department up to standards.  It's very funny actually, with a little romantic story line thrown in, to boot.  It seemed pretty realistic in portraying what's happening in too much of American business today, and as MTs, we can all relate!
I am trying to find a movie still from The Pacifier of
BUT I CANT FIND ONE. I find movie stills from the movie, but for some reason NONE of that one. If anyone comes across one please send it my way..I really want to irritate my husband.
That a movie about gay cowboys is wonderful
And wins all the awards, but yet the Mel Gibson movie, The Passion of the Christ" caused such an uproar. It shows where Hollywood's mind is and their agenda for the rest of the country.
We still have a Drive In movie theater. sm

It's located in a small town called Skowhegan and it's open during the summer.

Izzy was in a Hallmark movie also
It was a sweet story, catch it if you can....She was also in something else that I can't think of right now... a movie.. I'll think of it sooner or later...
Repeat after me,,,,, I love that movie.
:+
Keeping with the movie theme........

share with me the good movies you have seen in the past year (I like to get PayPerView and have picked some STRANGE stuff lately!!!)


Thanks!!!!


LOL...yeah, I think it is. Great movie!

my fave movie too....but not for Costner...nm

Loved that movie however unpopular.
I applaud Mel Gibson for making it.
Eight Below - great family movie. nm

I knew there was a dell in there somewhere...LOL! Been a while since I seen the movie.

That was in a movie right? He looks great on award nights.
I like him because he seems to be focused on the part he plays and not on looking good and in some movies, especially the pirate movie, he looked not so good but was hilarious.  He doesn't seem Hollywood to me all propped up and doing the guest appearances to promote his movies. 
Go out and do something! A movie, a museum (if open), mall, etc. -sm
I am home just about every Saturday night though I am married, have no family in the area, and few people my husband trusts to babysit. We try to go out during the day all together and do stuff with the kids on Saturday as I usually spend Sunday working all day (yes I am working now, taking a 10 minute break though). When I was single I enjoyed going out by myself and doing things. On the rare occasion now that I go out alone and don't have a million errands to run, I enjoy myself. But you can't meet anyone if you don't go out and try, maybe one of those book stores with cafe's, or the library, etc. Of like my dad (which I wish he hadn't done but its water under the bridge) go to church one night. That is what he did and he met my, now, stepmother that way. I am not religious so I'd never do that. But my point is complaining about being home alone and dateless on Saturday night is not going to change unless get up off your butt and go out. Try it and who knows!
Exactly. What audience would be clammering for a ticket for this movie?
Love to see it fail to send a message to Hollywood. Don't push your agenda down our throats.
That may be true (but I don't buy it); but in the movie they both get married and have kids sm
and still continue to sneak around.  I'm sorry.  I don't care for that kind of lifestyle gay or straight. 
Million Dollar Movie? Was on every night...sm
on TV and you could watch the same movie for a week?  I remember a lot of James Cagney movies shown on that Million Dollar Movie - *lol*
Cannot remember name of a movie and want to have my kids watch it.

Hopefully somebody out there can help me out on this one.  I watched this moving about 4 or 5 years ago, I believe it was even a Sundance Film Festival Movie, but not sure.  It is about 2 families, 1 Irish Catholic family with several kids and one particular curious 10 year old boy and Jewish family with only 1 child who is 10 and the 2 boys become friends.  The whole point of the movie is their different religions and the 2 boys trying to figure out if their religions are so different why is the outcome for both getting to heaven.  The 2 boys end up doing all kinds of "challenges" and what not through the movie to ensure their place in heaven while also trying to sort out why their families are so different and against them playing with each other.  In the end, I believe the Jewish boy ends up getting sick and dying and the 2 families end up being brought together by this and also brought together by the donation of the Jewish parish to the eldest boy in the Catholic family so he can go to college (which of course the Catholic father is against at first because of pride). 


I think that is how the movie goes but I only saw it once.  The reason I want to show my kids is because they are 9 and 10 and all of a sudden becoming facinated with why people have different religions and beliefs and how some of their piers "don't like some kids" because of their religion, etc.  This movie was a good example of how we are all the same no matter what we believe and I want my girls to know that and to know that they should not judge somebody by their beliefs and I want them to know that we ALL can teach each other something new no matter what our backgrounds are or how we were raised or even how old we are.  Can somebody help me with this movie title?  It would be greatly appreciated. 


at 81....loved that 1971 movie *DUEL*...nm

Yeah, Duel. Great movie. sm
One of Steven Spielberg's early ones before he became famous.
