| http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1809398/ I'd like to see this movie. I like dramas and period pieces. This movie looks like a possibility. Although being on a fixed income, going to the movies is more of a luxury than a monthly treat. |
| http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000221/ Charlie Sheen is one of many actors I absolutely can't stand. He was the supposed star of Two and a Half Men. I didn't like the show. I didn't care for the actor. I don't thingk Charlie Sheen has the acting enthusiasm that his father and siblings do. Whether he's in a movie, in a film, or a guest on a talk show, I avoid watching. Maybe , Charlie has a better arm so that he can pitch in a baseball team. Instead of wasting his time and our viewing pleasure, he'd be better off seeing if he could throw strikes. Maybe baseball was his calling. |
| http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0633140/?ref_=tt_ep_ep12 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0633141/?ref_=tt_ep_ep13 I loved Little House on the Prairie. The show had been a success for eight years. The actors were growing weary of it, so it was changed. The family that would be the centerpiece werethe Carters. They buy and move into the Little House. This changed proved to be the series' downfall. It only lasted a year after this episode. |
| If surgery is inevitable to work on your senses, then the two I would involve would be sight and feel. Th reason I chose those is because my sight has always been problematic. It would be nice to be able to see things from a distance, be able to drive a carin the daylight as well as night. Everyone kept telling me that I wouldn't miss what I never had. They are so wrong. I miss freedom. The sense that would have lessen would be the sense of feel. Any of the five senses are hard to lose. We depend on them daily. I wouldn't want to be deaf,. I would want to be able to smell if something was amiss. I would want to be able to taste my delicious cooking. My specialty is Italian food, even though I'm Polish. If I could feel, at least I could see and hear them. This was a difficult, at best, choice to make. That is the way I rationalized my choices. |
| http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106004/episodes I believe this show was very popular because of its predecessor, Cheers. The reason why I never watched this show is because I'm not a fan of Kelsey Grammer. Like I said in a previous post, I'm not really a fan of comedies. How can anyone find psychiatry funny? I realize that there isn't much to say since I didn't watch this show. I know that the show primarily focused on fraiser's personal life and how his work intermingled with his private life. |
| http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052809/?ref_=ttgf_gf_tt The Five Pennies is the true story of Red Nichols and his band. It was a movie gem that I just happened to watch in the 70's. I think, using today's technology, this movie would benefit. The music was the centerpiece of the movie. Using the technology of today would enhance the soundreack. The movie that surrounds the soundtrack would be enhanced also. The picture would be cleaner and crisper. It would add a sharper look to the movie.. |
| Most girls put the saying 'Sweet Sixteen and Never Been Kissed' to shame. By the time they reach 16, most girls have already have been kissed. I was a woman who proved that saying to be true. Boys didn't give me the time of day, let alone spend any time with me. After I graduated from high school, I went away to a technical school that fall. That was when I met Jerry. Looking back on that time, I was a fool. Jerry told me he loved me after four days after we first met. I was in the hallway in front of my dorm room door. I was just about to put the key in the lock when I sensed someone behind me. It was Jerry. He had a big smile on his face. I askeed him why he was smiling. Without a word, he took me in his arms and kissed me. I was shocked, surprised, and ready to faint. We became close quickly.-too quickly for my taste. I haven't been to that school since April 4, 1981. I met my first husband there. Jerry? He moved back to the city he was from. I did see him for a short time after he graduated from that school. But the relationship didn't go any further. All he wanted was to have a virgin. I'm so glad that I wasn't that virgin. I haven't seen or heard from him in over thirty-five years. Good riddance to bad rubbish. |
| The moment that changed me and my life forever happened on January 18, 2001. On that day, I became a mother for the first and only time. My moment ,more specifically, was when he was placed in my arm. I felt excited, overwhelmed, emotional, and tired. Here is this little person. He was totally dependent on me and my husband for everything . I was speechless for a time. I was afraid of this living doll. What do I do first? The fact that I became pregnant and had a child was and still is a bone of contention between my mother and I . My father met this with indifference and apathy.. Every time I think of that day, i'm sad and angry. When I see the movie Steel Magnolias and the scene between M'lynn and Shelby is shown, I cry. It's the scene where Shelby tells her mother that she is going to have a baby. I digress and for that, I apologize. My son has been a joy and sometimes a pill. I love him with all my heart and would give him my life if I had to. It's too bad that some people take the miracle they are given and spit on it. |
| I have never seen a ghost, but I know Shadow has. There has to be a ghost in our apartment. Every once in a while our printers make noises thqat are only made when in use. But when these noises are made, the printers are off. There have been several times when Shadow starts barking at something outside. When I try to look at what she may bebarking at, I don't see anything. Granted, my eyesight isn't good. Even when my husband and son look, they don't see anything. I do believe in ghosts. This is because there are times when I'll smell a familiar fragrance, get a sudden chill, hear a certain song, or feel a touch when nobody is around. I didn't believe in ghosts for long time. But that changed thirty-nine years ago. That is when my cousin was killed. After her funeral , I was having dreams that had her in them. She was trying to talk to me, tell me something. This went on for months. Then as soon as it began, it ended. Did she get the answers she sought? Then, eight years ago, it happened again. Every time I hear the song "Time Passages", I feel my friend, who died, around me. Although he was a country music fan, that song played the night he graduated from the school where we originally met. I don't think I've encountered any evil or mean ghosts. I'm glad about that. |
| I would have loved to witness the first vaccine against polio. I had a very dear friend and a great uncle who both contracted polio. I wish there was a way to reverse the damage that was already done. I don't know when my great uncle contracted the disease. My friend told me that he had just learned to walk and was walking for year when he contracted it. Bill, my friend, was in an iron lung for a time. He was told that someone had taken him out of the iron lung incorrectly. That was what caused his limbs to be contorted the way they were. I never noticed my Uncle Ed's leg braces. That was until the family party we had to celebrate my high school graduation. I finally asked my father if he was in a car accident or something. He told me it was because of polio. That explained why Uncle Ed took such a shine to me. Those two men were very dear to me. I miss them immensely There is a Post Polio Syndrome that made the disease reoccur. The only thing I can say is: Thank you Jonas Salk for this vaccine. You had a hand in performing a miracle for millions around the U.S. |
