Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Because books.

I'm referencing the book, not the 1933 movie, but I think Jo knew she loved Laurie as a brother, and also knew she wasn't ready to be partnered yet. Laurie had a lot of growing up to do, still.

I think by the time he and Amy met again in Europe, he had done that, but so had she. The way two old friends look at each other with new eyes in those chapters always got to me.

Apparently, I can rhapsodize over Little Women at the drop of a hat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I guess when I read the book I was young I didn't get the distinction between the sorts of love and I didn't see anything in old man Bhaer.

The movie doesn't cover the change of heart one bit.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Wasn't the professor played by Gabriel Byrne in the most recent version? I'd pick him over anyone, anyday (except James Morrison),

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Over Christian Bale?

Christian Bale, who while guesting on The Daily Show did the lead-in to commercial like this: "The Daily Show - sucking fine corporate cock since 1992."

I will admit to not being quite in love with the Bhaer in the book myself. But I did love Byrne's portrayal of him, as quester reminded me.

Also, quester, I am so sorry about your job. That's completely sucky of everyone you work with, and I want to smack them for you.

Okay, but that's totally cheating. Who played Laurie? Wait, Christian Bale as Laurie and Eric Stoltz as Brooke? Those March girls sure lucked out. I'd have been dizzy with choices.

Hey, the lead singer of Maroon 5 sure is cute.

Oh, my. Speaking of pretty, (dammit! provocateuse is down!) Johann is on Knight Rider. I almost wish I'd known in advance. And he's surfing! I went surfing with him. But I suck.

ita, did you get the Joshua Jackson I sent to provocateuse?

“Not dead yet!”

Yes. This. It was the only time I ever wanted to be Amy. Otherwise, I was Jo, all the way.

And the most recent version of the film is lovely. It's wonderful stay under the covers on a rainy day and watch movies, move.

Amy, I hadn't checked that email address in a while, and now my email client is in knots so I can't. I'll check again in a little.
