And then of course they forget that sometimes rejections have absolutely nothing to do with the person in question being rejected. If I'm going through family stress, for instance, I may not be in the mood to date anybody, no matter how good they are. Granted, the person may not know that's my reason, but they…

This cracked me up and god help me, but I would kind of enjoy seeing that.

Quotable man, that Churchill.

Is it sad that it wouldn't surprise me if it were?

I can almost hear you plotting a meeting to up the word count in reviews right now :p.

I cannot express enough how much I love your comment.

Of course they were significant. And if a documentary is going to focus on them, fine. But at the very least, find some new angles to it, including, perhaps, getting a few female historians (or historians of various races, ethnicities, religions, whatever's necessary) to share their thoughts on how those who were…

Bingo.

On a semi-related note, I love that stuff like this is people's idea of doing something to pay tribute to and respect for our troops around this time of year. Meanwhile, that whole Veterans' Affairs scandal that's in the news now? Yeah, it was totally cool for people to sleep on that one for years and let it fester…

It really is. We could compile a nice list right here in this thread.
Heck, I know many non-famous women who are serious history buffs who could contribute some awesome discussion to a topic like this. These are fascinating topics and they could use all the variety of viewpoints they can get.

This post kicks ass. That is all.

Amen to your last two sentences in particular. Math was never my strongest subject in school and that embarrasses me, because I fully agree more women should embrace that subject and get involved with it in terms of careers.

Sadly, you're likely going to be the one in the right here. But still, I remain optimistic. Cautiously so at this point, but it's lurking. If nothing else, the hope comforts me.

Bingo. Women can tell the difference between guys who are genuine decent human beings and guys who clearly just want to get in their pants. It's very noticeable.

I'm still waiting for the top 10 on "Frasier".

And nothing will ever get me to watch Bruce Willis playing the unborn child again.
*Blinks*
Um. Say what now?

Oh, good lord…*Drops head on desk*.

"Boy Meets World" could definitely be fun.

YES! I was really enjoying the reviews and discussions of that show. And season 2 has some of my favorite episodes as well.

There's some very notable episodes in the final season of "Twilight Zone", as well as a few lesser-known but still intriguing ones, so I'm really looking forward to talking about those.
