He is my favorite actor and starred in two of the funniest movies I ever saw: Goin' South (which he also directed) and The Fortune (with Warren Beatty)--both hard to find but absolutely hilarious!

Jack Nicholson
I happened across the movie The Raven - a take on the Edgar Allen Poe poem. It starred Vincent Price and Boris Karloff and Peter Lorre. Peter Lorre had a son in this movie - now remember this movie was made in 1963. His son - Jack Nicholson. If you get a chance and are a fan - see if you can catch it at the video store or on one of the movie channels - he was extremely young and a horrible actor - it's hard to believe that he has become what he is today after playing that role - it was really something to laugh at. He had a love interest with Vincent Price's daughter. It's a fairly short movie and worth your while - I watched it twice.
Don't laugh, Jack Nicholson does it for me.nm

We actually had some old 8 mm movies...
put on video (some years back) and they must have thought we were a bunch of hicks because to go along with our vintage 1960s era Christmas morning movie, they put the movie to music, of all things, Turkey In The Straw. I actually went on E-bay and bought an old projector that plays 8mm and super 8mm and we watch all the old movies on an old projector. It's fun, but I know they will deteriorate eventually. Nothing more weird than seeing my mother at age 27 (5 yrs before I was born), dragging on a cigarette. She quit when I was 3, so I have no memory of this. Old movies are so much fun.
He has been in a lot of movies and was
voted People Magazines Sexiest Man Alive this year.

That's a difficult one - probably would include From here to eternity (the original), i'm telling my age! Cape Fear, urban cowboy!
fav movies
1. The Frenchman and the Beautician
2. Top Gun
3. Meet The Fockers

I also loved history of violence, I didn't think I liked that main guy in an old movie, but he was quite good! And I think william hurt played an excellent mean person (is that a compliment??)
I think it's because he's doing too much. Look at how many movies he's made in the last fe
all in a row. Plus, the divorce surely is adding to that. As far as Angelina, don't blame her. If Brad was in love with his wife, he wouldn't have strayed. Plus, it obviously isn't just an "affair." It seems they are developing a relationship. Also, don't forget, Angelina was the victim of a cheating husband and had her heart broken, so she knows that pain. I think Brad and Jennifer spent too much time apart. And he does have a history of falling in love with his co-stars - Gwyneth and Juliette to name two.
Seen any good movies lately?
I liked The Pacifier and National Treasure. We are planning on having an outdoor movie night using a white sheet nailed to the side of the house and a projector to the DVD player on the computer, but I can't think of anything good to rent.
Scary movies
Creature From The Black Lagoon.
The original Phantom of the Opera with Lon Chaney.
Pay per view movies
Our pay per view channels are the 100's. Your system might be different. Our system is supposed to be connected to a phone line always, but a lot of the time it is not. We can usually still order movies with our remote. My SIL only has a cell phone now, so I do not know how she does it. We select the channel with the movie that we want. Press info. You can arrow up to exit if you do not want to purchase the program, or press menu to purchase the program. Our system is older, so yours may work a little differently. W have learned to be very careful because it is easy to order a movie that you really do not intend to. Sometimes you can go into purchases and cancel. With some things, you cannot. My husband, who is very technically challenged, sat there one night and accidently surfed where he did not belong and accidently rented some kind of special adult presentation. We immediately tried to cancel, but were unable to do so. You can also go online to rent a movie, which is also easy, or you can do so by phone.
when movies were 25 cents and you could...sm
send 10 letters thru the post office on $1.00
geesh - I'm older than dirt.......*LOL*
Drive in Movies sm
I remember as a kid going to the drive-in movies with my mom hiding us in the backseat so as not to have to pay for all of us.
As a kid I remember the amusement truck coming around and we could take a ride on the "whip" for $0.25.
I remember when it was legal to open the fire hydrant and get wet during hot summer days. (Yes, I lived in a "city").
I remember "Happy Days" was the hit show when I was a teen and the boys tried to look and be like the "Fonze".
I also remember as a teen, a bag of Doritos was $0.25.
Can you guess my age?
(Hint - between 37 and 39) LOL.
I love old movies too...
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Barefoot In The Park
Gone With The Wind...I love them all!
Well, I like his movies, so neener.

How do you order movies from Direct TV?
I'm a fairly new subscriber to Direct TV and up until now when we wanted to watch a movie, we would just go to the video store and rent one. I know Direct TV lets you order those movies from them and they put it on your bill and you get to watch the movie when you want to. Do any of you do this and do you find it more convenient/more expensive? Also, do you have to have a phone line to do this? Exactly how does it work? Thank you for the info and feeling a little dumb having to ask!
what are your favorite top 3 movies of all time?
1. A River Runs Through It
2. The Notebook
3. Bladerunner
Some older movies, but good ones...
The Life of David Gale...excellent movie...Kevin Spacey, I think...
Mona Lisa Smile...Julia Roberts...I really liked this one, so did my teenage daughter...
Forrest Gump, of course, one of my all-time favorites...we all know who he is (and the soundtrack is awesome)!!!
Have a lovely weekend...
Movies that are so bad they're good.
I'm gonna check that one out. I love movies like that. Nicholas Cage in Vampire's Kiss - same story, very young, bad movie, but boy did he give it his all. Talk about over acting.
You want strange movies - check out the
Joaquin Phoenix and Vince Vaughn was really a good one. Also, I happened to come across a movie about 3 or 4 years ago that turned out to be one of my favorites - Last of the Dogmen with Tom Berringer and Barbara Hersey - I HIGHLY recommend this movie - It's not a war movie but I don't want to tell you what it's about because it would ruin the surprise.
Typing Captions for TV&Movies
Does anyone here type captions? I want to know more about this, as I was watching TV w the captions on and wondering who types the words. I wonder if you just get to watch TV and type what you hear all day long...that would be so sweet.
totally agree on Heston movies....nm

Top 100 inspiring movies on tonight, CBS, 8-11pm. nm

I was watching one of the Freddy movies where the girl was pregnant.
Anyway, I slept in the basement and my parents slept upstairs. It was about midnight when I was watching this Nightmare on Elm Street movie. Our dogs were in the kennel next to my bedroom and started whining. I heard something thump in the ceiling of my bedroom, so I hightailed it upstairs to sleep on the couch. The next morning, we saw what looked like a coiled up snake inside the fluorescent light fixture in my bedroom. It was a studded dog collar and a rusty butcher knife inside the fixture. How it got there, we don't know but it wasn't there before I watched the movie. We can only guess that someone or something was after me that night. I stopped watching scary movies for about 15 years after that. Now, to see snippets of the Nightmare movies, they're so lame and fake.
Watch the original, its funny too- one of my favorite movies - sm
George Segal and Jane Fonda-- curious about the remake.
Same theme, but CBS on Wed. is to review the top 100 inspirational movies. Should be good! nm

How could you forget Tom Hanks?? I've loved all of his movies

I used to love scary movies but now I can't even consider watching them. Guess I've changes i
Yeah! We would go to the movies for 75c - triple feature horror flicks -
Vincent Price and Boris Karloff. Of course, we were too busy 'making out' to watch the movies! That is, until the usher came by a shined the flashlight on us!
The last time I ate at Jack in the Box
I got the 24 hour flu, diarrhea, dry mouth, nausea the whole thing. My body could not wait to get that stuff out of me. Working at home, I always prepare meals, and eat healthy, have a fruit smoothie maker, and a veggie juicer, and can afford the time it takes to prepare these things since its convenient. But about two weeks ago, I was out and about and thought hmm, a nice greasy hamburger sounds good, (mom calls them "loogie" burgers) so I got a number 2 and number 4 at Jack in the Box, gobbled it down, sick the next day.
I also got food poisening from a local chinese food place a few years ago, that is THE most violent illness (anybody have the misfortune to experience this?). I didnt feel right immediately after I got the last bite of lemon chicken down, sort of weak, later that night my stomach gurgled like it was trying to jump out of my body, intestinal stuff went on, diarrhea, fever the next morning, couldnt move. I felt that chicken map its way through my entire system. I was so hungry, that I didnt take the time to notice it was gray in color. By that night I was completely fine after the last drop had left my body.
Don't trust other people to prepare your food these days! There is a reason its called fast food, anything can jump on there, so fast they don't even notice it! With cheap labor, do you think the people who prepare the food care about you and/or their job? They can get fired and go work at another joint like that. I would pay the extra money to get take out at the outback or get one of those frozen box meals at the grocery store.
yep , jack and diane...nm

No waq, Jack!! What a hoot!
Ear phone jack.
I have a fairly old computer and can do either one. There is a jack on the speakers and also in the front of the tower. My newer computer has a jack on the front of the tower. I did not even look on the speakers when I started using it.
Jack of all trades!
x have a good night!
Magic Jack
I have seen several posts on the board about using Magic Jack with a C-phone etc, however, would like to find out more about it regarding voice quality etc. I have both a wireless setup as well as an air card from Sprint and talked to the Sprint rep last night about using Magic Jack with my air card and he said that because my connection speeds are extreemely good, he did not foresee any problems. I also talked to a "tekky" friend of mine in Las Vegas and he said that he has a client who loves it, but in reading the reviews, I have seen both good and bad about it. I wouldn't at this time need it for work, but just more as a "home phone line". Any information would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks
Does anyone who uses the Magic Jack (sm)
Suddenly today, Saturday, have the foot pedal not work? This is the first time I have ever had this problem and I am wondering if it is systemic today - and hopefully everything will be OK. Any advise please. This was only phone option I had for LDS and its pretty scary not to be able to work with it today. Thanks for any advise or comments.
Magic Jack - sm
I had to send mine back the first day I tried it. I could not get the foot pedal for my Lanier to work with it. I was very disappointed, as it would have saved a lot of money. Hope it was just your system.
MAGIC JACK
not wanting to work?? I've had Majic for for a while now and never had a problem with my footpedal til now. I'm on my second C-phone and still footpedal problems?
Jack, Wendy's, Mac???
I'd surely like to know which fast food place pays $11.50/hour to start -- please let me know as I'd be the first in line for that!! My hourly wage ranges anywhere from $8 to maybe $12/hour depending on the dictators I get -- ugh!! Before 2002 I was making anywhere from $15 to $22/hour, but transcription has certainly gone to the dogs -- grrrrrr! I think there would certainly be a lot less stress flipping burgers, ya think!
Magic Jack
I was thinking about this once as well but I went online and read reviews and after that, I was not convinced it was a very good idea because of some of the glitches they need to fix. I can't remember all the details but it would behoove you to read the reviews first. Good luck!
Magic Jack
I have read previous comments about Magic Jack and was wondering if there were any more recent experiences about using Magic Jack with a C-phone. Vonage wants to up my plan to business because of the amount of time I am using it and then with all the fees tacked on, I'm looking at at least $55 a month for a business plan up from $35. I would rather use Magic Jack if I can see other transcriptionists are happy with it. Please post if you don't mind. Thank you!

magic jack
I have Magic Jack and it works flawlessly as a phone. Would it work with transcription? I only have a cell phone and the Magic Jack line.
Magic Jack
No Magic Jack does not work with the C-phone's foot pedal. You can make calls with the C-phone but when you use the pedal it does not work.
EMT Jack sounds like he is from sm
India or some other place like that. If so why is he here?
EMT Jack.........where in the world sm
are you from? What does "if they thin that they pulling an extra person" mean? Have seen your broken English on other posts. If you are from outside the US, why are you here? Just wondering.
They can drop you, jack up your premium, or ....
Doctors ALWAYS ask if you smoke, especially if you are having surgery. Smoking makes you heal slower, heal improperly and can affect anesthesia choice. I don't know that the fact that you smoke "occasionally" will be transmitted to the insurance company, yet you should yourself report it to the insurance company. Smoking is still smoking and is still a serious health risk.
Funny jack-o-lanterns!
