lucky that I haven't accidentally stepped on their bodies after my cat killed them.

Too late! BTDT.

One of the many sexy things about Sail.

Aw, shucks. ::Pulls Hec into a corner of the thread to grope him a little.:: Thanks, hon.

My tv can't find it. Must be a New York thing.

Which is sad cause Posh Nosh sounds like a show I could be intrigued by given my predilections.

Also? Firefox 2's spellcheck in fields? I could kiss this new feature.

We all need to be obsessed with it.

But I already have a cooking show I'm obsessed with!

But this is a pretend one!

Mouse and His Child (book)

This customer review sounds like you, Sean (except their spelling):

I can't tell you if I have seen this movie more than once or how old I was ( young I know ). I just know that in the midst of tradjity this movie is one thing I have not forgotten. I don't know why it touched my young heart so as to make me remember it years and years latter to search it out. I haven't even recieved my copy yet, but feel compelled to write and reccomend it. I did not even remember the name of it and would ask everyone I knew if they remembered it only to hear I must have " Dreamed it " I spent hours looking and now I can not wait to revisit this movie again and again. There is more in this story than the superficial, it is deep and moving it is "human" in its constant attempt for knowledge and independance. I just hope it is not lost in the mass of ill forgotten, this movie truely is a stiring and wonderful story worth the search.

I'll have to read the book now. It's nice to know I'm not the only one to be accused of making it up, or dreaming, upon describing it.

Maybe I'll just sit here and cry.

Wow, I'm going to make a terrible husband.

Well, yes. But not if you marry one of those strapping sexy competent women, like Aeryn Sun. Then they'll not be expecting a mouse- or spider-removal skills set.

I thought the movie was okay, but it bugged me that they felt they had to change her name to Brisby

WTFF?

If you liked Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, may I recommend Terry Pratchett's kids' book: Maurice and His Amazing Educated Rodents? It's set in the Diskworld, but it's not really a Diskworld Book, per se. And it's very much bouncing off the NIMH book. I giggled like a loon.

Posh Nosh!

Oh, fabulous - I only happened across that a couple of times, but I laughed my ass off. In fact, I had a Posh Nosh quotation as my tagline for ages:

Pure and well balanced, like a nun on a tightrope

Oh, dear. Thank you, Hec. I don't think I'm ever sleeping again!

We have mice, but I've been assured that they're only in the basement. And they do treat for them. Plus, they wouldn't come all the way to the second floor. Nope. Not gonna happen. That river in Egypt sure is a nice one!

A friend of mine is a psychologist who works at NIMH. She saw the movie with her daughter, and bought her daughter the book (I don't think she herself read it), but never realized that NIMH was her NIMH until I told her.

Here's a photo to get you on the mouse's side: [link]

Oh, dear. Thank you, Hec. I don't think I'm ever sleeping again!

Wait... Why am I awake?

Damn you, wee Hec!!!!!!!
