| ML - I really thought your post was very interesting about the strike and it's complications and intricacies. I really enjoyed it. Quote: |
Now the WGA is asking people not to download/stream shows or give DVDs (from studios) as Christmas gifts to support their strike!
| I don't think I've bought any dvd's and I certainly don't download shows. I don't know how! But I did watch that one ep of Moonlight on the link you provided a while back. Does that count?
I'm the same way with spiders, although I'm really afraid of them. But if one's sitting in the corner, minding its own business, I don't mess with them. I don't like those little black ones that have the pinchers though, they really creep me out. My hubby will corner them into a tissue and take them outside if I find one that I really don't want in the house. I know they die of the cold (if its winter) though. But mice you really do have to deal with before you have hundreds of them living with you, the prolific little devils.
I was once camping (a long time ago) in the mountains in British Columbia that actually has a high desert climate east of the Coast Mountains. It's really beautiful there. I'd left my backpack outside the tent overnight and when I went to pick it up an honest to goodness "pack rat" ran out of my backpack and scared the bejeesus out of me. He simply ran away, didn't bite or hurt anything, but he scared me. I looked in my backpack and he'd built (or maybe it was a "she") a nest using all of the available kleenex in my pack. It was amazing! The guides that we were with told me it was a pack rat and that that's what they do. He wasn't very big, just like a big mouse size.
I agree that the choir competition will probably be a popularity contest between the stars, not as much due to the talent of the choirs. I thought Patti LaBelle looked great, she's lost a lot of (needed) weight. I think Nick Lachey (sp?) is cute too. __________________ "Life is hard; it's even harder if you're stupid"--John Wayne |
