Yeah, that happens unfortunately, not much has changed there over the last couple of years.

I just started a new game of M:TW last night, reunited France, my crusades captured Antioch, Edessa and Tripoli. Have yet to decide whether to invade England, Germany or Spain. Hmmmm...sod it I'll attack em all!

I really should play something else though. Any good ones you can recommend?
smuffy:

You are too sweet! It's okay I have been putting up with his non-romantic, non-caring attitude for five years. I am holding out, someday. *sigh*

well my boss gave me a good review. i was kinda surprized, but i guess he gave everyone good reviews!!! he said we could exspect around a 2.5 percent raise which will be about 27 cents eeek

Next time they evaluate me, i'm going to make them buy me dinner first! hey you should at least buy someone dinner before you fuck'em!!! shouldn't you?

heh, i want to know where you are buying 2 chick-o-sticks for a quarter smile
Well, you know, its good to know that they arent sending your job overseas, why should they?? they have all of the underpaid workers that they can shake a stick at. I am lucky, i dont get reviews, when i am working, its in my contract what they raises are and when, i could care less if they think i am a valuable employee, the bottom line is i make them money, lots of it, and i know that i am not irreplaceable, therefore, i do my job.
As far as banshee's statement about the managers giving up their raises so that the employees can have one, well thats the new trend in the market nowdays. I find it funny that they "give up their raises and bonuses" only to be driving a new car about two weeks after evaluation. yeah, my heart bleeds for them.

Enjoy the chick-o-sticks and tell us of any new and or interesting movies you may happen across.

Much love bro

When I worked at a hotel everyone always got middle of the road reviews no matter how good of a worker you were. And I was one of the best but out of either a 3/5/7% raise I always got a 5%.frown

Did you ever stand naked surrounded by...

Alas, I am a wimp so I must do what Nancy has told me to..."No!"

Hi. Sorry I'm just getting back to you. I fall behind on comments on the weekend because I am barely ever around excpet for the 1:05 late at night. Hehehe.

Anyway, it's totally cool that you read all my answers and learned a bit more about me. As you can see there is almost nothing I hide about my life.

So you're fasting eh? I've heard of all different kinds of fasts. I've only fasted for no more than two days at a time. I normally do that when I've gone to Europe for like two weeks and eaten myself silly and not gotten an ounce of exercise. My parents used to do the Lemonade fast to cleanse themselves. I think that might be the Master Cleanser though. I'm not sure. It's all crazy and extreme but it's supposed to be ok I just don't think you should do it for very long.

Talk to you soon.kiss
signalnoise:
good luck on the fast smile

do you avoid acidic jucies? i heard that can be bad when you're on the fast...makes you feel sick no?

arachnequarius:
because i rely so heavily on my imagination when i read, i tend to avoid books turned movies where the leads do not fit the characters as i "see" them. often, i am dissapointed by books turned movies because i think they miss the point, or focus on the commercial potential of the plot rather than the spirit of the story. this upsets me very much. notable exceptions are:

1. period pieces,

2. movies that successfully modernize period novels (a rarity), or that simply transform the spirit

3. or movies that are stand alone works of genius, however well they correspond with the novel.

for ex, i love the 1940s version of great expectations, because its very true to the book and exceptionally haunting. i've not yet seen the remake, so i cannot properly comment on it. as for 2., i think clueless is a funfun movie that captures the essence of emma without even attempting to imitate it. as for 3. the color purple is one of my favorite movies AND books of all time, and despite the brilliance of the characterizations that cross each genre, i consider each a stand alone work.

so that is my 2cents. biggrin hope yr weekend is going well, mr.movie.
banshee1:
Sometimes it works for me sometimes it doesn't. If a movie is shit then it's shit no matter how good the book is. I can't think of any at the moment but I've thought while watching a trailer...oh crap they made that into a movie...they're going to F it up!

I feel the same way about famous bands covering other famous band's songs.

Hope you're having a great Sunday love

So i met the new plant manager yesterday! he starts right off trying to "Bond" with even though, i'm wearing my "Do i look like a F#@ing, people person" shirt.

He says, something about the cowboy losing some draft pick to some other mindless feetball team, and then says, "That really pisses me off, you know what i mean???" I give him a blank stare...

I really need to see that Six String Samurai movie.
smuffy:
You sound like me. I feel like I watch movies more than anything else in my spare time.

Oh and to answer your question I like just about any horror movie whether it's an indie flick or Hollywood big budget. I'm really not picky and both can be done really well.
