If she protests she won't be able to eat it all, offer to divide it and keep half.

There was no protest.

Hi folks! We had some excitement at work today but I don't know if I should post it on an open board like this. Are we going to have chat?

I told you about it in my e-mail, Jane.

Danise · « **Reply #98 on:** August 16, 2004, 06:12:35 PM »

BTW (By The Way) in internet lingo--does anyone know where one finds the serial number of a computer? I thought it was on the back (of the computer) but I can't see/find it. Is it listed anywhere in the software?

Danise · « **Reply #99 on:** August 16, 2004, 06:23:39 PM »

Well, I guess no chat tonight.

George · « **Reply #100 on:** August 16, 2004, 06:29:46 PM »

Bruce said that there was going to be a chat tonight, but I can't make it anyway. I am going to my parents' for dinner. Until later!

Panni · « **Reply #101 on:** August 16, 2004, 07:13:01 PM »

I just came in and remembered chat. I gather there wasn't one, so I don't have to feel guilty about missing it.

Good News! I lost mt car keys on Saturday. I thought the last place I had them was at Longs Drugs. I went back minutes after I lost them, but they weren't there. (I had another key with me, thank goodness.)
Tonight, I was in the area and went in again, just in case. And they'd been found! A good omen.

I'm in chat, so is Noel. But, I nodded off and didn't get there until now. Basically, I done forgot.

Noel · « **Reply #104 on:** August 16, 2004, 07:24:21 PM »

Chat's kind of lonely, I must admit.
Is it that you've all caught Olympic fever?

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #105 on:** August 16, 2004, 07:25:16 PM »

Dang.

What did you and Noel talk about?

Jane · « **Reply #106 on:** August 16, 2004, 07:33:09 PM »

Good news indeed Panni.

Emily you are torturing me. I'm trying to east sensibly today.

bk · « **Reply #107 on:** August 16, 2004, 07:38:02 PM »

We chatted about speakers, as in sound. It was delovely.

Jay · « **Reply #108 on:** August 16, 2004, 07:44:45 PM »

I am just back from seeing A Home at the End of the World, with Dear Reader Maestro Jose serving as my movie-going companion.

This is, ultimately, a very touching story of friendship and love and relationships. A key subtext of the film explores the dynamics of conventional--and very unconventional--familial structures.

Although I wept through a good portion of the film, at no point does it become saccharine or predictable.

The direction and cinematography are excellent, and across the board the acting is quite wonderful, but Colin Farrell and Sissy Spacek truly stand out.

A definite thumbs up.

What we need is a little old-fashioned FRENZY.

Jay · « **Reply #110 on:** August 16, 2004, 07:49:26 PM »

We're barely at a fr.

bk · « **Reply #111 on:** August 16, 2004, 08:04:41 PM »

Yes, far too many errant and truant. Are the Olympics the culprit?

Dan-in-Toronto · « **Reply #112 on:** August 16, 2004, 08:07:49 PM »

Back to movie goddesses.

Did anyone mention Elizabeth Taylor?

MBarnum · « **Reply #113 on:** August 16, 2004, 08:10:56 PM »

I started watching QUEEN OF THE AMAZONS on DVD and plum forgot about chat! Sadly it was a terrible movie $:-\$

Matt H. · « **Reply #114 on:** August 16, 2004, 08:21:46 PM »

Sorry that I didn't make it to chat tonight, but it was important to leave my phone lines open tonight as I was expecting an important call or two either tonight or tomorrow. Since it didn't come tonight, I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see what happens. Anyway, I apologize.

Matt H. · « **Reply #115 on:** August 16, 2004, 08:25:09 PM »

To pass the time tonight, I watched AMERICAN BUFFALO (Ok movie, decent transfer) and PENNIES FROM HEAVEN which I admired even more seeing it look so good. Yes, as BK said, there was noticeable grain in some shots, but the musical numbers look so stupendous that I didn't care. The DVD simply blows the full frame, muddy looking laserdisc right out of the water, and this is a movie that's just grandly enjoyable for the sheer audacity of it. No other American film looks and feels anything like this, and I'm so glad we have a decent copy of it to enjoy.

Really was dumbfounded by how spectacular Vernel Bagneris' "Pennies from Heaven" number looked. And Bernadette's terrific number with the kids is astounding to look at in widescreen.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #116 on:** August 16, 2004, 09:00:42 PM »

May watch a DVD tonight - need to escape the Olympics. May watch "Being There". IMHO The movie that did it so much better than Gump.

Panni · « **Reply #117 on:** August 16, 2004, 09:05:56 PM »

I feel I must contribute to the FRENZY - but don't have anything earth-shattering to say. Haven't watched the Olympics at all, except for a few minutes yesterday. For some reason I'm not terribly interested this time. I do have lots of Emmy tapes to watch. Someone asked weeks ago if the scripts themselves are part of the judging process and I couldn't recall. Well now that I've received all the material, the answer is Yes. I've received tapes AND scripts for each show and film in the finals. Including the ENTIRE script of ANGELS IN AMERICA.

Panni · « **Reply #118 on:** August 16, 2004, 09:07:43 PM »

Yes, Tom, BEING THERE is a wonderful film. Haven't seen it in years. Must watch it again soon.
