Don't matter, Christmas movie=she will love it. The only exception to that rule is Elf, where our dislike for Will Ferrell trumps the holiday movie card. I enjoyed watching the Santa Clause movies with our granddaughter last year, watching her try to grasp the concept of somebody's dad turning into Santa Claus every year. I think it will be more fun with her this year (plus watching her do the "Sisters" number from White Christmas is a hoot). |

Ugh. I would rather watch a kitten being bludgeoned with a hammer than have to suffer through one of the Tim Allen "Santa Clause" movies again. But what do I know? I seem to be the only person on earth who hates A Christmas Story, the one with the kid who wants a BB gun (I love the book, though). I like Elf , but not for Ferrell -- c'mon, it's got that delicious Zoey Deschanel in it, and she even sings! And Lou Grant as Santa! And Bob Newhart as Papa Elf! |

I agree on the Jean Sheperd books, everyone of them evokes memories of boyhood in the Midwest. |

I love the Jean Shepherd books as well. Also his radio shows. As a kid, I would hide under the covers after being sent to bed, with a transistor radio (remember them?) and listen to his show on WOR in NYC. He really showed the power of radio as I was transported to places I'd never been and hearing about things I'd never known - all in the theater of the imagination. |

I like his books, and love that movie, but I find the radio show extremely dull. I don't buy for one minute the accuracy of many of his stories, though they're fine as fiction. The rest of the time, he just seems like a boorish windbag. |

Don't get me wrong I can take Wil Ferrel in small doses (SNL skits) but for the life of me I can never wrap my mind around that he has made MILLION$ of dollars in my opinion really stupid films................and please understand that this is coming from a man who can almost quote every juicy line from Animal House I stand with you sir along with the other 300 Spartans to defend the narrows or whatever the hell that place was called.... |

Are these condolences based on the second season of Lost in space or the Lugosi Monograms...........I am hoping that it is the Lost in space thing...because if anything I kinda feel sorry for the old Hungarian (not you Gravy) |

That's right LG 90 days or less..........it is obvious that the closer Monogram week gets.....the more skittish the board members get..... ![]() IT'S COMING UP ON MONOGRAM WEEK.....YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH... P.S. I will be sending the bribe money shortly for the Rose Mcgowan "miss Monogram week thing" ....................I wonder can the other board members read this considering I have used the Gene Roth invisible keyboard ink typing type thing. |

It's My Family Album, and Your World As I See It. |

"The Essential Ernest Collection". I'm too speechless to even make the obvious joke. |
