I Am Legend
I was a little disappointed in it. . It was still a good movie but I think it just didn't give you enough info about the character and his family to really care as much about him as you should. . I am looking forward to seeing Bucket List.
I am Legend
I thought this was a great movie but with a disappointing ending. Will see anything with Jack and Morgan, but not a big fan of Denzel.
I am Legend
My DD said the same thing about the ending. I really want to see P.S. I love you! Anyone seen it yet?
This is an urban legend

Urban legend emails
What are your thoughts about forwarding/deleting good luck/bad luck emails (i.e. urban legend chain emails). Example: I get an email from one of my friends. Says to read the story then look at the photo. The story goes on to say that the photo is of a young boy who asked his friend to take a picture of him at a certain spot, The young boy whose photo was being taken screamed and fainted and 2 days later died of a heart attack. When the film was developed it showed this boy (actually looks like a teenager of Asian decent) and there stood a ghost next to him. The email goes on about how some man received this email forwarded it to 13 friends and received all this good luck and stated another man just deleted it and his whole life was ruined.
I'm thinking how gullible are these people. Also I'm looking at the pic and the ghost is definitely from some horror movie I've seen before (maybe The Ring). Can't quite place it but I know I've seen it somewhere before, which I think I've seen this boy before too in some other picture. So I'm thinking how silly are these people (which by the way my freind sent to to exactly 13 people). So I look up the place called Sundarbans and this is some urban legend. If you put that name in Google up pops a picture of the boy and the so called ghost.
What I'm wondering is how many of you out there actually forward on emails like this believing that you just might have good luck (you know, things like win a bunch of money, get the raise you've been asking for or a promotion, they guy you've been wanting to date mysteriously calls you, or you are offered free chocolate the rest of your life) HA HA, and how many of you just delete them. I am one who deletes them, and it irritates me to no end that my friends go and include me in part of their montage of people they are emailing, so now all their friends have my email ID. I guess I'm supposed to be obligated to send this email to 13 of my friends or else I become afflicted with some sort of bad luck. What is even worse than this kind of email are the so called "religious - good luck emails (i.e. I'm sending you this Angel to watch over you, she was sent to me by my good friend and I usually don't forward these things but my friend wouldn't lie about where it came from and she received the promotion she had always been wanting, blah, blah, blah!
So just curious if any of you out there are as annoyed at these kind of emails than I am. I know I could very nicely tell her to please not send me any more of these emails (which most of them I just delete anyway as soon as I see the word "Fw:" in the email address), but I don't want to hurt her feelings. I don't believe in any of that stuff. Maybe I will try searching for an article about urban legend emails and how if you just delete them nothing bad is going to happen.
On another note, I too have been caught up in the "send this email to all your friends and you will receive 12 days of good luck". Can't tell you how many of those emails I have forwarded on in my time (mostly religious emails) and never once has any good luck been bestowed upon me because of it. Who knows....maybe "The Big Man upstairs" (as my sister refers to him) gets annoyed that people are exploiting him like this.
Have you ever seen Link from the Legend of Zelda?
that's what he wants.
Yes i'm with you, i would have my son's hair dyed professionally before I would attempt to do it or pierce his ears. I did give my oldest a mohawk when he was about 4 and my grandmother cried for days. poor dear LOL.
I Am Legend looks great. LOVE Will Smith!
I also just bought Licensed to Wed with Robin Williams on DVD. I plan on watching that either tonight or tomorrow night.
I'm thinking urban legend, although that's a pretty funny one!

thanks for listening
I feel like I got a little support here - even though I guess I pirated this thread! That makes me feel a little better. It has occurred to me after reading the original post that my daughter's generation may not even be aware that we always did the traveling to the older person's house, or at least most of the time. I don't know what happened to change that.
You must have been listening to
Fox- same lineage but not raised by Kennedy. Dog adopted, returned by previous owner, the girls are second owner. Anything is possible but in this case not.
Thanks for your listening below (sm)
Husband and I have talked this through. We're going to find something else to rent until we can save up a decent amount to put down on another house. Someone below (I can't remember and too lazy to go look right at this second) made mention of not buying until financially ready. We are definitely not ready.
As a side, the landlord called and left a voice mail. Thank goodness or I would have laughed on the phone. He said his buddy who did the appraisal 2 or 3 years ago let him know the exact number of the appraisal and it was about $25,000 more than he stated the other day. I know this house, I know what needs fixed and there is no way in hades he's going to get what his buddy appraiser told him.
I'm going to put him off until we find a place to rent. We had a lease agreement years ago but have pretty much been going month to month in the past 3 years. The guy is a nice guy to deal with, but his head is in the clouds on this appraisal deal. He said he'd be willing to work with us but wasn't going to give it away.
Thanks for the ears below and voice of reason. I was hit with this and had a bad day or two of uncertainty.
listening to this mess-
I think doctors today are just different. I remember doctors that would actually stop and rewind to the spot that needed to be corrected instead of dictating it after the fact. I also recall the time when doctors did not say "umm, or keep you hanging waiting for the next word. I overheard two doctors discussing his mother's surgery and recovery. The attendings that are "supposed" to be training these up and coming doctors should include dictation techniques.
For the last two weeks I have been listening
to Christmas music in my car. Don't know why, but I was in the mood for some Manheim Steamroller, even if it is a little early in the year. I have to say that when I listen to the Hallelujah Chorus on this particular CD it makes everything that is wrong in my life seem so insignificant. I love this group's music. It just makes you happy.
Merry Christmas, a little early! 
I just wanted to say thanks for listening again.

I guess not listening to your tax person
because I could take retirement now but if I do not able to make the $$$ I want. What I have found out, if I wait until full retirement age I can work and draw the social at full and my pay at full. I hope to make that- only 3 more years and then the moola will be sooo nice. If I retired now, social security comes and takes money away from me. I do not like that.
I really get irritated listening to the news
Ok, got another stoopid story. A newscaster arrested last year, driving on suspended license from previous DUI, was charged with DUI again plus had drugs in the vehicle so 3 charges. This newscaster has now been rehired by the same place that fired her last year. A woman today said- she thought this person was a role model for young girls. People - have you lost your fricking minds???
For us who spend our lives listening
we all sure have a lot to say! Love it.
Listening to Neil Boortz this morning and he said
Whoopie in Atlanta 1 time, tried to wear jeans to have dinner at Ritz-Carlton in Buckhead, turned down at which point she was trying to say Atlanta not stylish, behind the times. He was saying probably hold-over from that and how some northerns immediately upon hearing a southern accent just assume you are ignorant and lots of others things, like maybe we make moonshine, do the barefoot thing, marry our cousins, on and on. What Vick owned up to just goes without saying 1 of the most disgusting things I have heard of in my life and most of us in the south who would not defend that regardless of their race, creed, ethnicity, etc.
Agree 100%, I enjoyed watching and listening

I was 18 and driving my Mustang on Main St. listening to the radio.

St. John's wort
Does anyone take this and if so, has it worked? I hate taking prescription antidepressants (made me way too tired, etc.) so was wondering if this helps.
John Bon Jovi
See now I think he's really hot now. LOL. I remember reading that his wife was his high school sweetheart. I agree with you there though...I dont think that great either.
Oh, and Richard Gere's father was my insurance agent. He doesn't live far from my house.
John Lennon
Well, you didn't specify if they had to be alive or not, so I'm gonna fantasize for a moment here. If he did knock on my door the first order of business would be to wet myself. Then I'd b*tch slap him for the whole Yoko thing. Then I'd smack him again for getting himself killed strictly because he went the Yoko route and went all retarded on us. Then I'd shut the door, turn around, walk to the phone and call the crisis hotline because someone had obviously tainted my Crystal Light with Crystal Meth.
John Adams - HBO
Is anyone watching the John Adams series on HBO and if so what do you think? I thinks its by far one of the best shows I have ever seen. We saw the first three shows during the HBO free preview weekend and ordered HBO just so we could continue watching.
Throughout my school days I detested history. Found it to be quite dull. All I remember was having to memorize dates but don't remember a thing about learning about the people or times (although I'm sure I must have). Now I can't get enough history and search every site I can think of to learn what I almost failed in school.
Just wonder what your thoughts are about the show.
Where is John's head? (sm)
It's in his crotch.
I just saw John and his family on the
Today show. What a wonderful man with such a beautiful family. The picture of little Adam in the baseball cap holding the bat is just precious. So much good has been done in Adam's name. They are amazing people.
John Travolta is gay????
This is the first I'm hearing this. Is this true or just speculation?
John Stamos!!! nm

Saw John Edwards in Las Vegas
not that thrilled, no time for most of the audience, accepted very few questions from very few folks so would have felt better if more able to participate than say 4 or 5 for the total time.
John Bongiovi (aka Jon Bon Jovi)

P.S. Couldn't really say John Candy or that would have
completely given it away.
Had to make ya work for it right?! :)
i use ALOT of st. john's wort. sm

I'm still standing - Elton John

If you google John and his lover,
you probably are going to pick up a man's name (as in the nanny you speak of). I knew the police were already involved. I am sorry for John and his wife as far as the loss of their child but there are very odd things going on here.
I forgot about John Gage!
He really is cute. I like Kurt Russell, too, and luckily he's still working and I can see him once in awhile.
Does he like Uncle John's sausage? sm
I can't remember where you said y'all were now, but that is definitely a local thing. Their plant is in Brandon. Anyway, they are also available online but the shipping is very expensive. They are the ones that make the mojo sausage (and other fresh sausage) and sell it to Sweetbay/Kash N Karry stores.
But John Corbett is one good looking

John Edwards and Sylvia Browne
I used to watch John Edwards, but he's no longer on TV in my area. I do watch Montel when Sylvia is on every chance I get. I have tried to get on the shows from time to time, but it hasn't happened yet. I'm trying to find a more local psychic, but the nearest one is 30 miles away and I no longer have a vehicle and none of my friends or even hubby would go with me.
I also find brand new shiny pennies lying face up on the ground a lot of times.
When our grandson was very young, about 4 yo, he wanted my husband to push him on the swing. My hubby was tired from working all day and told him he would do it tomorrow. The grandson looked him straight in the eye and said, "When you were young, I used to push you all the time." That stopped hubby in his tracks. (His father used to push him on the swing.) Hubby spent the next 2 hours pushing our grandson on the swing.
I could go on and on on some of my experiences, but all I can say is that I'm happy they happen. It makes me feel good that they are watching over us.
Just wish they would give me some good numbers to playthe lotto. 
I believe we read the John Gray books because that was what was out then, but -
I think Dr. Phil's books are better and more practical. We got the relationship book when it came out to see if there was anything else we could work on. Go to counseling and REALLY work on it. It will work if you give it a chance (for the most part). I will tell you there were couples in our class who were FAR worse off than we were who said at the end they never felt closer. Not sure where they are at now, but I know for a fact my hubby and I have never been closer or happier. Remember, put as much effort into your anger, resentment, etc., as you do into cultivating a good relationship. Most of the time men are clueless the little things they do harden our hearts to them and are very open to doing what it takes to make us happy once they find out what we want and need. Good luck to you. :-)
IMO, John Hancock is the company to call.
They have some GREAT plans they will explain to you. I'm working with somebody there right now because my dad's retirement turned out so great (using them). Good luck.
John Assaraf's nauseating statement about that
He was on Larry King promoting the theory that you wish everything into your life.
Larry King asked this man if Jessica Lunsford wished her torture and murder into her life, if this is his theory.
The man paused a moment and then said, "Yes."
Made me sick.
I understand dwelling on the positive aspects of your life and they become more apparent to you. However, to think you simply "wish" something into existence is the biggest pile of manure for people to fall for.
Especially to say that every baby, child, teenager, woman, man ever abused, tortured, murdered WISHED THIS ON THEMSELVES.
Ludicrous.
you DO mean John Edwards' wife Elizabeth?

All this talk about John Cusack below made me go out and sm
rent Serendipity today. Never seen it. Can't wait to see it. I LOVE Kate Beckingsale (think she's the prettiest woman in Hollywood), so I think I will like this one......shhh don't spoil it! LOL
I think I have seen every John Cusack movie ever made.
I first fell for him in 16 candles....he was such a nerd but an adorable one at that. You will luv luv luv Serendipity!
the Lord John Gray books
I read the first one but haven't read the 2 that she published this year (waiting for the paperback versions). It wasn't as good as Outlanders but still pretty decent. Mainly a mystery that I had a hard time following at first with a bit of LJG's (ahem) personal charateristics thrown in, if you know what I mean.
Since they are in the public eye, they must do it. John Edwards is lower

John Kerry given update on his wife's cancer
the breast cancer has moved to her bone, had a rib fracture, possibly lytic? Edwards says better that it is in the bone now ??? Yee gads, not good.
How about just Dear John and Sue. As a sister, I wouldn't use formality. nm
