Not going to talk about it too much so as not to spoil it for you, although, if you saw The Omega Man with Charlton Heston (and I can not imagine who hasn't) then you pretty much know the plot as it is a remake... which they didn't mention in any of the films press... but I sorta knew it was because I, apparently, have seen everything!
Was v. surprised to see who else was in the film.
1. Dash Mihok: who I have a crush on (and I can't explain why that is exactly, it's not like he's conventionally hot)
2. Emma Thompson: who is on screen for all of ten seconds, so no blinking. It gave me a little thrill to see her in a "Hollywood film."
I really liked the film but felt it wasn't long enough. A lot of sad, gut-wrenching scenes, especially the evacuation scenes of New York City. I recommend it, though it is not a film for everyone. And not a typical "Will Smith saves us from the monsters" movie. I think you will be surprised.
1. Go over your parents house, especially when neither of them know why the Christmas lights on the tree don't work!
2. Spend the next hour at your parents house untangling the mass of Christmas lights from around the tree... while your father yells instructions from the den.

Bridget Jones is still my absolute favorite literary character. Harry Potter is a close second, followed by Lucy Honeychurch.

Leo Horoscope for December 2007 By Susan Miller This month is simply bursting with romantic potential! [LIES!] With FIVE
super-friendly power planets filling your house of true love in the
first half of December, you are about to embark on an enchanting phase [Sue, you always say that and I never believe you],
much like the Owl and the Pussycat who alighted their own pea-green
boat of love. Jupiter, the planet of happiness and expansion [the planet of rejection and misery], will see
to it that you have a sensational phase to remember this month.[more lies] Watch for developments to blossom just after the new moon on
December 9 [Hmmmm? That's next Sunday. Most likely I'll stay in my pajamas all day and do laundry]. Romance won't be subtle or quiet, but rather all
encompassing - big, bold, grand, and loving. [HA!] If you've been single a
long time [Wow, the first line of truth in this entire horoscope!], by all means attend every party you can, even two or three
in an evening. It is THAT important that you be out and about! [Bah Humbug!] It's rare to have five planets in any one house, and to have them
all squeezed in your house of true love and in divinely compatible fire
sign Sagittarius - well, that is really fortunate. Single or married,
the first half of December will be truly made for you. If you're attached and have hoped to have a baby [*gags on Woodford Reserve*], this month, more
than any other, could bring you the welcome sound of the stork's wings
flapping your way.... [kill me now]
...they get a promotion and a raise.
Who knew I should have been kissing ass all this time. Life would have been so much easier.

*Snort* Only if you like mildly mushy fan fic...
I am totally up for Tin Man on the SciFi channel the tonight. Zooey Deschanel's character DG (which a suspect means Dorothy Gale) is rather boring looking, but I have a terribly juvenile crush on Neal McDonough (from way before Band of Brothers... like from around the time of Star Trek: First Contact when he played Lt. Hawk... which was on just last night! Man, I am such an über nerd) and I am only watching it to see him.
I've had my own domain name and website for years now. This morning I forgot how to use FTP. I hope old age is not trying to creep up on me.
