Gonna have to disagree with your math there, sir. I have an elderly female relative who lives in one of those 'retirement villages for active seniors' in Florida and her husband of many decades just died. Almost instantly, the old dudes started circling, so she got the 411 from the other single women in the place on…

When you're 13 and you've just discovered Hollywood musicals (thanks to the 1970s montage-fest, THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT), well, just about your favorite thing in the world is Gene Kelly in short shorts. And, now, as an adult, I concur.

My grandmother spent her early married life working with her mother-in-law and my mom (in kid form) to plant and pick a one-acre vegetable garden and a crapton of fruit trees so they could "put up" about a bajillion Mason jars of food and compotes and jams and jellies to live on year-round - all during this time in…

Yes, exactly - it's frustrating to me that the technology DIDN'T exist then because all this could be cleared up with one phone call.

But dammit man, she told the truth in The Truman Show!

I'm not crazy, right? When Claire was harumphing about how crappy the 1920s were, one of the things on the list was the Dust Bowl. Nope, the 1930s for that Depression-era event, correct? Surely the Dust Bowl and the Jazz/Flapper Age didn't overlap. 'Cause, damn, Fitzgerald coulda had a field day.

Thank you for the laugh. You win today.

Thanks for the info - I was wondering when that magnificent spotty-headed bastard was going to enter the world stage. Also, "Romancing the Stone" makes me happy to this day. That is all.

It was especially wonderful and moving to hear and see the Five themselves, particularly Capra's interview in which his eyes still filled with unshed tears about the impact of what he witnessed as well as the still-raw artist's response to the rejection of It's a Wonderful Life. He said that all artist's have ego and…

Was it too much to ask that, with all the automatic weapons spraying hundreds of bullets, one guy close to Negan gets hit? Just one guy? Porn-stache guy (Simon?) or that sonofabitch Dwight? I was even ready for Eugene to get taken down in the crossfire (and I actually LIKE him - although a little less now). Negan…

Truly - what with everything in some kind of gelatine (including MEAT)!

It really is. This book really shows us an America we can barely recognize - tremendous levels of starvation, no real sense of ethnic cuisine, food designed for nutrition more than flavor, and a self-sufficiency in those 'home ec' lessons in food production and preservation. Old recipes using all these ideas are also…

No, you're not. I have to just keep reminding myself that he's whispering to keep his inner Jack Bauer from busting out and torturing the next person that gives him any crap.

This. It's so frustrating that Stan can't just get a burner phone and call Oleg and say, "Don't do anything crazy, the heat's about to be OFF." I'm nervous that Oleg's mom just set something bad in motion with her surviving-prison story. I actually care more about what happens to Oleg than to Philip and Elizabeth -…

Double damn on her. I'm still mad that she didn't kill The Governor when she had the chance.

Nope, my mom said it to me - followed by, "…just let me know first and I'll get you on the pill." (Obviously, this was during those gap years between gonorrhea/herpes and HIV when all you had to worry about was buns in ovens.)

I loved it when he told Mike that he never hit anybody before and I'm all like, "Oh please, You're Jack Bauer! You've tortured a guy with a LAMP."

I thought it was especially amusing that she told the mechanic guy that the motorcycle was too much bike for her when she totally rode shit like that as Nikita.

Adore her in Lake Placid. She is sarcastic, wry, cool, brave, caustic, and lovely all at the same time. It's a wonderful, lived-in performance amidst the surprisingly effective chemistry and quirky casting that brings her together with Brendan Gleason, Bill Pullman, and Oliver Platt.

The whole movie was ruined for me when RDJ shot the red-haired guy. It ruined the whole tone that this really cool crew of crime-fighters had going, just slammed the brakes and did a U-turn into Bummerville.
