Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Had a conversation with a coworker who inadvertantly got married while doing a dance in Benin.

Please share so it can be avoided, please. I mean, it's the stuff of goofy romance novels, not reality, and it's best to keep it that way. had those kind of reality dreams lately that take a while (sometimes hours) to recall they are brain fictions, not reality and that's awfully close to one out-there-one-not-hours except it involved Giant and I seriously had 5 minutes of panic before the waked up me woke up.

JK Rowling has a lot of characters, damnit. You need a bedtime story that can vanquish them all with a single glare. A Smurltlefeg, perhaps?

Hmmm, my nephew started to read them at about that age, but by then he had already watched my sister and I play so much Magic that he was probably used to all manner of creatures.

well the story is over. If it was in the middle I could have invented something. Now all I have is me, and me has to re-do two reports and get them emailed to my boss before I can go to bed.

I think my nephew was about that age too, but had recently come off a huge Star Wars kick.

JK Rowling herself says she'd start kids redaing them when they were 7.

BTW, you know how I know the exact timing of that, msbelle? It's because I know it was when I was living with your brother.

My nephew watches the Alien movies, and while I don't really adhere to that school of thought, he's fine with them. But then, I'm a complete wuss still scarred by some random heavy metal horror video when I was 10.

I saw Jaws way too young and it scarred me for life. Ditto Psycho.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The teenage neighbor girl took me to see Friday the 13th (the original) when I was 10. I was scared shitless for YEARS.

I recall taking my niece to see Secret of NIMH when she was 4, thinking, "oh, nice, animated movie." I spent the last 20 minutes of the movie with her wrapped around my neck but I was too selfishly involved in the movie to walk out. I was a baaaad aunt.
