I have a dragon. simple black. saw it on the back of a surfer. Got it in a fit of ego after taking first place at a kenpo competition ages ago. about 4 years later i softened it a bit with a blue lotus with yellow tipped petals. Not that I'm Super Karate Girl. I just smile like the Cheshire Cat when nervous. Apparently…

Hi Lori, Welcome! I can relate. Back in May my house got broken into. I got depressed. Stopped coming here, and put all the weight I'd lost back on. I recommend squash. High in fibre so it keeps you full a long long time. Tons of vitamins. Great to do different things with. Also ancient grains. Quinoa, Kamut, Faro. This…

I like making tiny apple pie with won ton wrappers. Slice your Granny Smith - or other tart apple. I use one of those convenient things that chops and cores. In a little bowl, mix a bit of sugar and cinnamon. In a second bowl put a little plain water. Place the apple slice off center of the won ton. Sprinkle the…

Generally speaking, people are aware that Muslims pray several times a day. But very few people are aware that Catholics have been doing so for centuries before Muslims existed as a faith. It goes by several names. The Divine Office, the Liturgy of the Hours, the Breviary, the rosary is also called the poor man's Breviary.…

I'm a Whedon junkie. I didn't like Dollhouse at all. Blech... The only good part was Alan as Alpha. He totally rocked it. I think the whole thing of bashing anyone is just generally bad. But Americans, over all, have become all about the slander, the scandal. No one cares about the truth. No one wants to support the…

ugh... Elementary teaser. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DO6uUEuWNa4

Nichola Tesla.... if only we had listened.

I got quite a start at the bank today. Fellow ahead of me turned around, grinning like the Cheshire cat. Spitting image of Jeremy Renner. I thought - well, Helldorado is this weekend. Maybe he's in town for that. I don't know anything about him. Maybe he is a cowboy. [shrug] Or a wannabe cowboy. Then I realized this guy's…

UK version is always better. I boycott the US version.

Hmph. Here we go again. Trying to to ride British coattails. Moffatt's Jekyll as well as his Sherlock were/are fantastic. While I wasn't happy about the way they tied up Jekyll when the found out they weren't getting another season, the show was fabulous. I'm on pins and needles waiting for the next installment of Sherlock…

DITTO! thank you for this.

Hi, new to the group. High protein, Low carb is a lie people have been told for a very long time. It causes all kinds of health problems. We need carbs for energy. We need carbs to repair ourselves. The reason a high protein diet helps you lose weight is because your body can only use so much protein a day. The rest is…

LOL! That's the sort of stuff I get from friends in Hollywood. Forgive me! It's HILARIOUS!

Yipee!! Thank you!

Oh! I did see that. I'd forgotten about it. I rented it because I thought it was from the book. I was disappointed for a moment, then not!

I'm going to throw one in from way out field. Jim Caviezel. He has that brooding, I could snap your neck like a twig, thing down. He's got some TV show. I've never seen it. But the other day there was an add for it. He looks over his shoulder and growls, "I'm gonna show him what a real monster looks like." And my immediate…

Yipee!!! Three of my favorite things.

I love love LOVED the first few seasons. But then Kripke went off to do other projects and the show stopped being about urban legends and launched the whole angels ending the world thing. Which I've found really dull. Yellow Fever has Eye of the Tiger in it. Remember when he's afraid to go into the second story of the…

Yeah. Stupid Yahoo ruined the critical scene in Avengers for me. Everyone in the theater was on the edge of their seats. Will he make it?? But I'd been reading on Yahoo and they spilled about Iron Man 3. Bah...

Oh that's the part I laughed so hard I nearly peed my pants. Loki's face was priceless. Anyone else think he looks a lot like Brent Spiner in the early days of Next Gen?

Hi All!! I've missed you guys. I just plain peed my pants. How about the rest of you?

Wow. I was just being poetic. Not expecting a scolding from someone I do not even know. My feelings have nothing to do with "social status." I don't give a fig about social status. High budgets do not equate to good films. Has any single ONE of the high budget remakes we've been saddled with lately been any good?

Sigh... I can't wait! I should post a pic of my Capt. America helmet.

Personally, I feel like I've been robbed. I remember when Doctor Who was something exactly THREE kids (and I was one of them) in school knew about. Now it crops up in mainline television when the Leverage characters use Tom Baker and Sarah Jones as aliases. I remember when being a Trekkie made me a supreme outcast. Now…

Can you post pictures of your Jason tatoo?? I'd love to send them to my friend Dan who worked on the book Crystal Lake Memories. Please Please Please? Oops. Never mind. Guess I should have scrolled through the whole thread before I got all excited. THANK YOU!!

Mine isn't geeky. I have a Tatsu, which is a three toed dragon. Guardian of women. Along side it is a blue lotus with yellow tips.

Roger Corman and Vincent Price - I am a lost cause. House of Usher. Pit and Pendulum. The Raven.

Everyone here is telling you to eat more protein - but in truth too much protein is one of the major reasons for hair loss in women. All the women I know who've done that Atkins thing started thinning. Particularly right in the front. A lot of hair loss sites recommend brewer's yeast - as the B vitamins are good for hair.…

I am still in utter shock that my love of Spock transfered immediately to the Quinto kid. My dear friend as well! We actually have coffee table conversations about how strange it is. I have nothing juicy. I'm pitiful. Does it count as juicy that I had a monster follow me around a convention for a week because he enjoyed…

LOL!! Music! Is it sad that I hear "Battle in the Mutara Nebula" in my head while out on my scooter? My silly little 50cc engine that takes 5 minutes to get up to 35 miles per hour... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KilBvojsMdw Take a stuffed toy or two and hide them around the house. Then organize the kids into "away…
