  1. After loving Freaks & Geeks so much I gave Undeclared a try and felt the same way about that show as you do about Heroes... watching an episode was like doing homework. Anyway, Heroes... I'm still hanging in there, mostly on faith that Tim Kring was gonna correct the major problems with season 2 (which I think I gave you the link to: his apology. May contain spoilers, I forget.) And we even have a spoiler font on here!
  2. January 21!!!!!!!! not that I'm super-eager for it or anything...
  3. I had this when I visited a friend in ATL and remember it being really good. I wanted to try some of their other brews but they have those crazy Sunday drinking laws there.
  4. The West Memphis Walgreens sells Old Style...
  5. We can't get Stone in Illinois... I'm sure we can brainstorm.
  6. You should browse the Bell's website and PM one of us a Top 3 beers you'd like to try! Just sayin.
  7. Sooie and I will find a way to make this happen.
  8. Completely pulling this out of my ass without doing any research, I think the faithfulness of the movie to the book has a lot to do with the director's willingness/ability to consult with the comic's creator(s), to share creative control, whose hands are tied and how, budget, film company, target audience, etc etc. Sure, some things may never work as a film, but I don't think directors would set out to completely trash a book's vision on purpose. I do read comics once in awhile, but not as much as I used to. I'm not terribly well-versed, but I did force the library to buy a lot of the big gr
  9. No one drinks beer anymore.* *except all of us in the ND thread.
  10. Well-said. I had mixed feelings on Civil War but I won't say a thing until you're done. Your avatar reminds me, I saw Ghost World before I read it and I think to an extent the movie ruined the book for me.
  11. I'm reading Watchmen right now at my brother's encouragement. He was really excited when the trailer came out because he said it looked and sounded true to the book. fwiw, I thought Sin City was well-adapted to the screen.
  12. Vibes and luck, MrRain! You volunteer at PAWS, right? I saw they have a couple positions listed online that don't require vet training. Mostly just receptionist work at the neuter clinic, but if you're desperate it might be worth looking into until something more what you're looking for comes along.
  13. Remember how she said that we would meet again some sunny day?
  14. You could answer a craigslist ad for a free haircut! Vibes and luck, btw!
  15. Awesome!! And I spied a ball from Toy Story in the little girl's room!
  16. Thanks to my great-uncle, who was captured in the Battle of the Bulge and endured one of the harshest winter campaigns of the war. Thanks to my grandpa, who served in Korea. Thanks to my brother, who is balancing college and ROTC. Thanks to my cousin, in the Navy and just back from a tour in Iraq. Thanks to all my friends currently serving, especially those currently in Afghanistan and Iraq. And thanks to the millions of others who have served and who continue to serve!
  17. Happy birthday, Brian!! Sending a round of these your way: and since it's YOUR birthday, tonight you get to choose any Rock Band instrument you want:
  18. Vibes to all those job-hunters out there. My best friend moved from Chicago to Atlanta back in July and despite having 10+ years of academic library experience (including work in circulation, cataloging, and serials acquisitions) has yet to even get a phone interview from any of the university libraries he's applied to down there. These aren't even librarian jobs either -- they're support staff.
  19. The headline and the article suggest two different things:
  20. I think so. But I don't get to vote for who replaces that seat so... look, I mostly just don't want Blago to have any say in this. 13% approval rating, people!
