According to research, doing personal Web surfing while on the job can lead to better time management, stress reduction, improvement of skill sets and helping to achieve a balance between work and personal life.

Or are they incorrectly assuming I'm downloading the latest Streisand ballads and Dixie Chicks record?

Another outrageous inaccuracy in the CBS Reagan miniseries: Apparently it said nothing about the fact that when she was single, Nancy Davis was known for giving the best head in Hollywood. No wonder I wasn't going to watch it. Not clear why it needs to be on Showtime if they're going to leave this out, though.

Saw it last night on the Imax. By far the most expensive, visually spectacular, B-movie I've ever seen. There were some very funny moments. Worth the big screen money for visual reasons only.

You're talking quantity, Lawford's talking skill. You really can't compare skill across generations. new kids come up, and benefit from what the older folks contributed. The new guys have access to video training that Nancy never had, and they get started earlier than Nancy did. Shoot, I've heard of middle schools with effective leagues now.

You do raise a point about some of the bias from those days though. There were plenty of men playing the game in the 40's and 50's and probably playing it well. They just weren't what Lawford considered "the right kind," so they didn't count.
It wasn't until Paul Lynde got the Uncle Arthur role in Bewitched, effectively smashing the gender line, that the guys could begin being considered alongside the girls.

Meanwhile, back in the 50's who was best in Hollywood? I'd nominate a certain young man, nicknamed Walter, and known for his ring work:

of course he was in the lineup back then, how could Lawford have ignored him? Guiness Book of World Records for fastest fingers? C'mon now.

After all, if you work out 5+ days a week, appear to be in the best shape of your life, finish mid-pack in mountain bike races, are certified as a fitness instructor and teach classes, work your day job like a maniac, and eat decently, nothing could possibly go wrong.

I finally watched Matrix Reloaded last nite. My only commentary would be that there is no reason to listen to any of the dialogue. Yeh, I'm sure the Wachowskis have some deep meaning in mind and there are loads of hidden fables for humanty laced through the film, but for those of us who don't give a rat's ass about such nonsense and just want to be entertained, it was a just a pretty good picture show. I turned up the surround sound full blast and had a good time. I don't know why people bag on these flicks so much... The freeway scene was better than most action flicks.

Agreed. It is true that a blowjob or cunnilingus is not technically sex, but its still adultery. The Court got sex confused with adultery.

Your probably right, but that seems like a lot of effort just to avoid going to the doctor.

I own one and I know how to ride it on trails, etc, but I prefer to read magzines, watch TV and listen to cds while using the cardio machines at the gym. Its just so much easier to go to the gym than unlock the bike, check the tires and get the thing out to the trails, even though I do actually enjoy it once I get there...

Absolutely. Better a once a year confirmation I'm not in imminent danger of death yet so I can get back to bs-ing with my friends over a nice glass of whiskey after a half-assed day of skiing.

There is nothing like moutainbiking. I like riding down that trail with the wind in what's left of my hair, the handlebar in one hand, my starbucks french-roast venti in the other and my favorite illegally downloaded MP3 tunes blasting in my iPod.

Life was made for spandex on middle-aged men. Ahhh good times.

I saw the christian rock band episode yesterday and could not stop laughing. when Token started to play bass and realized he acutally could riff and said "goddamn it" under his breath... the christian song lyrics that all had sexual references in them ("are you saying that you are not IN LOVE with Jesus?")... the evidence that downloading harms rock stars because Lars Ulrich can't afford his gold shark-tank bar for a few more months...

good times.

I watched "The Hours" this weekend and was again surprised to find that I liked it. I didn't even think Nicole Kidman was a real actress til I saw this.

One question. Does anyone remember the line she (Virginia Woolf) said to her niece? I googled it but couldn't find it.

Something like...

I was thinking of killing my heroine,
but decided not to.
Now I think I'll have to kill someone else.


Yeah, maybe it wasn't that memorable for anyone else, but I suddenly felt great affinity for the character.

Did I miss this conversation last year?

Plus, nothing is worse than having your bike stolen. I'd rather have them take my car.

Hello
I liked it too -- very much. The scene that gave me great affinity for the VW character was when she was giving instructions to the servants about going into London to get something or other (was it ginger?). "Do I miscalculate?" Fantastic.

I remember the conversation about killing the heroine, but I can't remember the exact phrasing.

I've always liked Nicole Kidman, but it's not like she's been in that many roles where you could really see her acting talents -- but I thought she was fabulous in "The Others" as well. I will confess that I could not understand the hoopla over "La Boheme" (that's not what it was called, was it?). It was ok -- but I didn't get whatever was behind the abundance of praise for her performance -- not that it was bad, just not worthy of all that gushing.

I saw that one, and I have to go on record that I just don't find KotH funny. And I live in TX, so I should get it I think. I watched last night b/c I know that e/o likes it, so I figured I'd give it another shot. Sigh.

dtb, you were thinking of Moulin Rouge... I never thought her performance was amazing in it, I thought the movie as a whole got raves b/c of its unusual style. Spectacular, spectacular.

wherever he is. I just saw this picture of this guy from one of my alltime favorite bands, and he looks EXACTLY like how I picture Bilmoe since I learned he was a kayaking seventies rocker and thus not Benny hill. He even has the little gray macaroni mustached I am certain Bilmore sports.

Now, I'm not normally one for dumpster diving, but when I see anything inflatable, I immediately think "pool toy." So I rescued Tina from the dumpster and set her adrift in the pool. An associate, concerned that some the resident retirees may mistake Tina for a drowned child, removed her from the pool and left her reclining on a deck chair.

The conscientious maintenance staff allowed Tina to remain on the chair, her toes and tas pointed directly skyward. Then on Friday, perhaps by wind, perhaps her own volition, Tina found her way back into the pool. Tina's uplifting plasticine presence has been acknowledged by many residents. The reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, except for one resident who lamented the lack of a hole. I just smile knowlingly in response to this unsolicited praise.

Anyway, she's still floating in the pool if you want her.

That's what all of us TX chicks wear every single day, along with quite a bit of makeup. High hair, makeup, cowboy boots, and a low-cut rhinestone shirt and that is all.

Well, I've seen her in a few bombs too, but that is another story.

I remember the scene with the servants; great stuff. They made it seem like she was trapped in a prison where the guards could pretend she was the warden. I loved the train station scene towards the end too. Anyway, bottom line for me is it was an unforgettable character.

So, just as a random question (I may take you up on an answer if you have one), what movie would you recommend under the following conditions:

1.) You think its a great movie;
2.) Nobody below the age of (45?) appreciates it, except you;
3.) At some point, either audiences, critics or the academy loved it.

Well, not nobody, but you know... barely anybody.

Anything come to mind?

Britzkrieg
 
When is this album coming out? Will it be come and gone by like next week? Every time I turn on the tv, I have to see a promo for a behind the music, or dateline, or e special on this gal whose sell by date will be a week after her new album doesnt sell. I am sick of the annying singing voice, the sugary southern accent and quick quips about the *kiss* and growing up in the spotlight. Didnt she go away for liek a year bc she was overexposed and had bad sales? did she learn NOTHING from JHo (who must be silently thanking lil Brit)? When will this be over? She is like an E True Hollywood story at warp speed. From failed sales to exodus to nudity to lesbian bullshit to regret in like nine months. Make it stop.
