This is exactly right! While the majority of Americans eat processed junk (refined wheat, HFCS, a list of toxic preservatives and pesticides, etc), they stand around with hands planted firmly on foreheads wondering why they're obese. All the while, folks that eat normal food (read bacon, eggs...
My mom's side of the family is 100% Irish, I believe my grandmother/grandfather are 2nd generation. How does that affect my St. Patrick's day? Not at all. My grandma and grandpa used to go to church to "celebrate" it, and we'd occassionally get together for dinner, but that all fell by the...
Anyone happen to know how to remove the cleats? These are entirely too small for me, unforunately; I'm more of a 14D sorta guy. But perhaps some of you gents that could fit into these could remove the cleats?
If I don't get anything on them tonight or tomorrow, I'll be posting them on eBay. I...
Well, after seeing some of the recent comments, I guess I have another unpopular opinion...
Although I used to dislike the Grateful Dead, I eventually grew to like some of their material. I never could get into the cultural aspect of their music (filling myself with narcotics, quitting my job...
Strangers on a Train (1951)
I wasn't as impressed by this film as I hoped, but I felt Walker redeemed my expectations. He was a sinister, creepy killer well worth seeing in action. I also really liked Hitchcock's use of camera with some great scenes like the murder reflected through the...
No doubt! I wasn't aware they were planning to remake Fright Night. Spill der beans, sir!
*edit: haha, didn't see your response DJ, sorry! Well, I'll be looking for the remake.
Fletch, I keep forgetting you're up in Ames. If I weren't so lazy and ignorant, I would try to arrange a meeting with you and thunderw21. I haven't talked to Starius is some time, and I haven't seen him post in a while either, so I guess he's MIA.
Alex, good to see another Iowan on here...
I don't think anyone has commented on this, but I have to agree with John. I believe this is really more or less the situation. It's not so much a question of "Are people trying to claim copyright on a public-domain piece", which is more of a legal action, so much as it is, "People are trying to...
With St. Valentine's Day nearing, should we not extend this question to other seemingly needless, Hallmark/Budweiser holidays? (without creating an entirely new thread - if one hasn't already been created for SVD).
I suggest the following "holidays", or rather days-designed, should be...
You know Jack, that's really too bad about the POD. It seems to me that an enterprising person could really make bank on something like this; imagine how many people would pay decent money for a high quality product, especially considering the "vanity" publishing market. I've considered looking...
Just a few of my recent films:
Lucker the Necrophagous (1986) - quite disappointing piece of shock trash; nowhere nearly as interesting as Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer or Maniac. Very disappointed. I don't think there was anything even relatively redeeming in this film, save for the...
Fright Night (1985)
Could have been a lot worse. The special effects and make-up were great. The plot was campy, as one would expect, and it had a real 1980's feel to it. However, this film was far smoother than many of its low budget peers. I have to admit, however, there are some pretty...
Although I can't see the picture (work computer here), I would recommend brushing a hat before cleaning. Felt sucks up dust and fabric from the air like a little sponge (along with moisture, too!). If you already own a hat and you're trying to even out the color, give it a good brushing. There...
