aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

He was great in Undeclared too. Also limb-risking.

That man gives great Stalker!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

tried to read that artical twice - it kept crashing firefox. but I had guilt - because I had three movies for a year ( I still have one) but I decided 1) that was the point of netflix and 2) we just got out of the habit. We are on the three month plan with an almost 100 movie queue. But a lot are tv series. and what I have home depends on Matt - there's buches of stuff we both like - some that are more for him and then there is lots that is just for me -but I watch most of that when he is out of town. Sometimes, I watch lots of tv, and lately i just don't. I am slowly catching up on Lost - but I don't like to sit and stare at it, so I watch it while doig other things. Same with a lot ot the TIVOed movies.- they are old friends , or sillier things or kids movies. Netflix stuff I often want to sit and watch, so it means time.

"Haven't We Been Here Before" is actually my favorite choice for dramatic Styx recitations. But there are many other equally fine options.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Haven't We Been Here Before" is actually my favorite choice for dramatic Styx recitations. But there are many other equally fine options.

I like the "Angry Young Man" song. Especially because an angry young man once held some people hostage, and one of his demands was that a radio station play that song.

My one-disc-at-a-time Netflix subscription works great for me, because I'm highly forgetful and prone to not watching movies in the first three or four days I have them. Of course, I signed up in the first place over the Outrageous Blockbuster Late Fee That Broke the Camel's Back, so avoiding more of same was one of my primary motivations.

The shutter-button-to-shutter-action lag on my camera is too long. I have never succeeded in getting any pix of lightning.

If you are shooting at night, the best method may be to set your camera up on a tripod and set the shutter speed to the slowest speed you can and take a bunch of exposures. During a good storm you're bound to get some lighting in one of the exposures.

Oh my god! That Lady moment was, like, the most painful and most funny things I have every seen. I think I may have actually hid behind my sofa while laughing hysterically.

Or maybe that was when he did his original song "Lady L". Oh my.

Jason Segal not only does creepy stalker well, but somehow creepy stalker with whom you can sympathize and feel sorry for all the while you are still sort of creeped out well.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Dana - go into "Your Account" - very top left. In "Account Details", right next to which account you have, there should be links to "Cancel", "Hold", and "Change".

Now tagless for your comfort.

I love the hold option on Netflix and have used it.

We cancelled once over a year ago, but it seems that DH left one of their DVD's in the DVD player he ended up returning to the store so we had to buy that one. He also forgot to return the remote with the DVD player, so I guess that one was a wash.

Talked to neighbor's daughter. Neighbor is fine and she said that pretty much folks are walking around the streets normally like nothing's happening. They're going to to dinner tonight in Haifa so things are pretty normal--but they were advised against travel to a town close to the bombing sites.

Looks like rockets have hit in Nahariya and Haifa in Israel. I hope that's not the area where Nilly is. I wish both sides would stop fighting, it just seems to keep getting worse.
