Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Another great story of kids standing up to bullies:
Three Nova Scotia teens are being credited with saving an 11-year-old boy from being beaten and humiliated by a gang of nine bullies.
The trio stepped in front of a group of nine children who had lured the boy into the woods near Millwood Elementary School in Lower Sackville.

It's Lower Sackville, there's no actual "Sackville" around for it to be lower than however. There's a Sackville, New Brunswick, but that's a few hundred miles away.

tries to resist the urge to point out that Pike wasn't the first captain of the Enterprise
The first commenter in the Zapit story pointed that out too.

Ah, yes. That's the one. The one where kids don't stand up to bullies.
