Tease

That emphasis is probably due to the denomination behind the network. Born-again evangelicals set a lot of importance on a conversion experience when the convert accepts Christ. If the network was run by, say, conservative Lutherans, Episcopalians, or Catholics (I think), there would be much less emphasis on accepting

Dandelion Wine
is the best of Bradbury, in my opinion.

Redward, that is well said. I hope everyone who hates ND gets to your comment.

I know the taste of blood, from licking cuts and such, but not that of band-aid.

Microwave bacon
I tested a pack of bacon that was designed to be microwaved. It was delicious.

Please explain
How do you all know what band-aids taste like?

Good Lord, there's three Anchorage residents here! I am shocked.

Fred Meyer
It is the best grocery chain period (at least in the PNW).

Yeah, Wipeout is fun… almost as much so as MXC.

But Henry V! The Saint Crispin's day speech! That gets a lifetime pass for me.

And then you do the same thing all over again…

They would have killed him just as quickly, although they probably wouldn't take his foreskin as a trophy, since he was certainly circumcised.

The Philistines that David kills aren't necessarily innocent people, since they happen to be Israel's biggest enemies. He probably killed 200 enemy soldiers, not civilians.

I can't read this, cause I'm still working on the novel.

The Basketball Scene
It's the best description I've ever read of being the best within the confines of a sport, where nothing matters but the physical actions you are taking, and everything is going right.

Personally, I'd prefer "Much Ado About Nothing." There's a decent adaptation by Kenneth Branagh.

Romeo and Juliet
My Shakespeare prof absolutely hated Romeo and Juliet; said it was the worst of Shakespeare's plays. There's gotta be a good film adaptation of one of Shakespeare's other plays that could be considered falling-in-love movies.

What about…
Casablanca?

Yeah, I would definitely eat the crispy duck and maybe the cajun squirrel. I'm a fan of duck.
