^ has been to the "Night of the Living Dead" cemetery (too cool!)

Hmm... I was able to turn it off before it really did anything. Lucky me, I guess. Which viruses, by the way? Just curious - once a geek, always a geek.

Nope

I'm partial to creepy Asian ghost movies myself... Although I must admit that Shaun of the Dead is one of my favorite movies of all time - I still laugh ever time I see it! And I also liked Land of the Dead as well.

I'd love to see the look on that hapless person's face the first time he pisses you off!

Men usually underestimate the strength of women.

Rain and hail yesterday - in the 40's during the day right now, but I hear it's going to warm up to the 50's.

^quite a bit younger than me. I'm with you, Iron Bess - experience is a good thing!

Just saw it and taped it as well - posed more questions than answers.

Okey dokey: "Want a little whipped cream, Mr. Cherry Top?"

A married couple are driving along a highway doing a steady fifty miles per hour. The wife is behind the wheel. Her husband suddenly looks across at her and speaks in a clear voice, " I know we've been married for twenty years, but I want a divorce." The wife says nothing, keeps looking at the road ahead but slowly increases her speed to 55 mph. The husband speaks again. "I don't want you to try and talk me out of it," he says, "because I've been having an affair with your best friend and I'm leaving you for her." Again the wife stays quiet, but grips the steering wheel more tightly and slowly increases the speed to 60. He pushes his luck. "I want the house," he says insistently. Up to 65. "I want the car, too," he continues. 70 mph. "And," he says, "I'll have the bank accounts, all the credit cards and the boat!" The car slowly starts veering towards a massive concrete bridge. This makes him nervous, so he asks her: "Isn't there anything you want?" The wife at last replies-in a quiet and controlled voice. "No, I've got everything I need," she says. "Oh, really," he inquires, "so what have you got?" Just before they slam into the wall at 70 mph, the wife turns to him and smiles. "The airbag."

Congratulations Mad Jack! Fifteen years is quite an accomplishment in this day and age! I think that the media has given folks an unrealistic view of what real relationships should be. That "honeymoon/pink cloud" period is MEANT to be finite and yet we're shown in the media that with "true love" this temporary initial period is supposed to last forever - that's just a crock. Human beings are not designed to maintain that level of hormones and emotion indefinitely. Yet so many people feel like failures when this part of the relationship naturally ends and don't allow the next part of the relationship to happen. And if they hit a rough spot, the relationship gets thrown out; good life partnerships are too rare to be treated as if they were disposable. Also, I think that a lot of folks are put off by what they perceive to be "working" at a relationship, when for the most part "working" at a relationship is doing a lot of the things that you did willingly when the relationship was still in the "honeymoon/pink cloud" period - talking things out, spending quality time together, doing those things that show that you still care, that sort of thing. Okay, I'll climb off my soapbox now.

Bittersweet is the best! :) I'm partial to Canadian chocolate - not as many chemicals or wax as the U.S. version, so you get to actually taste chocolate. Of course, this means that they melt faster, but that's no big deal.

Spring is almost here, but you'd never know it with this weather!

I would, but my pockets are already empty!
