QUOTE (ladirushfan80 @ Jul 15 2008, 11:00 AM) Pags... the thought of leaving you there to deal with the car all by yourself was never an option or a consideration... 
we leave no one behind.
let the powers that be just TRY and throw a wrench into the plan. you take that wrench, throw it as far as you can away from you, and make the best out of a shitty situation, 'eh?
it's just the way we roll, man.
There's nothing TRFers can't overcome banding together!
Only a little way into the thread and awesome pics so far!
Someone may have already mentioned, but if the powers that be throw you a wrench when your van breaks down, don't throw it as far away as you can. It might be useful.

QUOTE (thesweetscience @ Jul 21 2008, 08:17 PM) I just watched "the departed". All I can say is WOW. 10/10 Who knew 2 an a half hrs could disappear like that........ That's one of those movies that the acting is so good you can watch it simply for that fact, regardless of whether you know the movie by heart or not.
edit - had to add : incredible storyline also.
-
Searched and saw a couple of threads beating around the bush.
But none that came out and said it.
If there's another thread that is scrictly for bad movies not worth viewing, please noteefiy.
Just watched The Eye with Jessica Alba
It tried hard with special effects and a pretty girl and with decent acting.
But just the lamest plot. Girl is blind, girl gets cornea transplant, girl can now see the spirit world, girl uses new power to save lives. With no twists or surprises, totally one you can miss.

QUOTE (Jack Aubrey @ Jul 20 2008, 02:17 PM) OK, I remember reading this story when I was in Junior High. The gist of it is that a man is challenged to a duel and when he gets ready to fight, his mouth has gone so dry from fear that his lips stick to his teeth. His opponent sees this and erroneously believes that the man is smiling so he backs out of the duel because he's terrified to fight a man who would smile so in the face of danger.
That's pretty much all I remember and I'd really like to read this story again. Do any of you fine folks know what it's called and/or who wrote it?
Thanks.Nothing comes to mind on that one.
I remember a cool story about a boy and a tree.
He played in it when he was a kid.
He carved his and his girlfriend's initials in it when he was a teenager.
He cut it's branches off to build a house for his family.
He cut it's trunk down to make a boat.
And he used it's stump to rest on when he was old.
There was other stuff i can't remember, but along with the illustrations it was kinda cool. Can't remember the title.

QUOTE (sullysue @ Apr 3 2008, 09:19 AM) I couldn't find a general poetry thread to post this in, so I started this. I hope there isn't another one somewhere.
Anyway, my 9-year-old daughter, Savannah, gave this to me last night. I wanted to share it, because it made me smile.
It's Pokey in Here!
I am writing this poem from high in a tree,
And it is rather pokey in here.
I got in this tree way up high
By a gust of wind, and I flew
Into that tree like a bird flying by.
I hope that gust of wind comes right back
And blows me out of this tree.
And I'll fall down with a "Smack"
And break a bone or three.
But, it's rather pokey in here.
(Help Me!)
That's a trip!
Ok SullySue,
Now what we want
Is one from you.

I can't believe you were even able to paint what looks like the reflection of yourself with a window in the background in the eyeball of the frog. That kind of attention to detail is truly amazing. Why didn't you paint a background setting for the animals? Pags
I cannot believe you noticed that, didn't think anyone would.yes it is a reflection of me taking the photo.
here is a closer detailed painting that shows my reflection.

They have no background as they were for a book.
Thanks for the comments guys
I couldn't believe this paintings were watercolor until I saw this close up.
Your work is mind-blowingly good. I bow to you.
Very special!

Or maybe in the lyrics?

Or maybe 'red rover'? Like you maybe guess numbers to break thru the line.

This is Boone. He's a purdy good dog. Boone, what a cool name!! He reminds me of my old dog Shy. 
Thanks Troutman.
I've had three other dogs. Loved them all.
They are buried in nice grassy area on my property that stays in the shade all day long. No markers, but i sometimes think of them when i walk by there sometimes with Boone in the evening.
I've had some cats that i remember.
Leo, who used to suck on his tail and knead your leg and purr like crazy.
And a little black cat, who caught all kinds of stuff and bit off their heads and left the bodies on the front porch. rabbits, mice, squirels, a huge rat one time, fish (after a big rain), moles
I tell ya this cat could hunt.

Paul, no need for thanks, but you are so very welcome. I'm glad I could help.
MH, Fridge is right - there are NO limits for you as far as education goes. I'd be willing to bet you are an extremely intelligent young man. Get tested, get some help with study skills, etc. and the sky's the limit.
And finally, here is Mr. Stephen - he just wouldn't smile for me, though.

And asleep last night, curled up with his Jungle Book animals (that's Bagheera's tail you see there.)
great pics, GG. My son, Timothy, is totally into The Jungle Book right now. 
He likes to watch the movie repeatedly, pausing it when things in the story are in mid-air. Something to keep in mind with these rapidly growing boys, is new shoes. Tim has been doing much better behaviorly since he got the trampoline for Christmas. I think he bounces a lot of his frustrations out.
Anyway, he started getting unmanageable again just recently...hitting teachers, throwing toys, and refusing to follow directions in general. It occurred to me, probably a few weeks too late (stupid mom
) that his shoes were too small for his feet. I got him a new pair that day, and he's a new kid, all cooperative and smiles...well, as can be expected.So I just want to remind all those parents out there how quickly they grow. And they can't always tell us, or even identify themselves, the things that are bothering them, like shoes that are too small.
new shoes kid --->
Santa Claus is smart.
edit - and that's the prettiest ghost i've ever seen.

QUOTE (EveryNerveAware @ Feb 2 2008, 08:44 PM) Venus and Jupiter in Morning Skies
http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb305/EveryNerveAware/RUSH/VenJupMorn_tafreshi800.jpg
These two celestial beacons shining brightly in the east before sunrise are actually children of the Sun, the planets Venus and Jupiter. The second and third brightest objects in the sky at Night after the Moon, Venus and Jupiter appeared separated by about 2 degrees when this picture was taken on January 30th, but closed to within nearly half a degree early yesterday morning. In the serene foreground is the shoreline along the Miankaleh Peninsula and Gorgan Bay, an important bird and wildlife refuge in the southeastern Caspian Sea. Over the next two days, early morning risers around the globe will be able to enjoy a close pairing of Venus and Jupiter with an old crescent Moon.Nice pic.
but is that shore line lit up? are they partying on the Caspian?
looks like the bars, casinos, and discos are open.

QUOTE (goose @ Dec 16 2007, 01:48 AM) QUOTE (GeddyRulz @ Dec 10 2007, 09:24 AM) I think what the SciFi Nerds see as "deep meaning" and profound symbolism boils down to a simple (granted, original) theme: "What if Virtual Reality was reality and reality was illusion?"
I'm a geek, but not geeky enough to play that Information Age Mind f**k game.Um, not so original. Isn't this just a twist on the classic allegory of the cave?
My interpretation and from a Christian point of view, would be that
the material world is the "deception" (the matrix) and the spiritual
realm is the real world you can't enter until (edit)you swallow something
supernatural.

QUOTE (Warm memory Chip @ Dec 16 2007, 02:06 AM) Hello there, newbie Warm-memory-Chip here, Actually after thinking back an all 3 films, there would be a ton of religious type references and ideas. I sorta get the opposite feel, unless you consider a psuedo computer program that is the supposed savior of a race of moles who eat some sort of synthetic Protien filled Oatmeal and all wear Doc Martins,not to mention look like they live in the background of a really bad 80's Poison video, you know the metal-the warehouse, and sparks, lots of sparks.
The funny part is, if those relgious overtones seen in the Matrix are anything revealing of psuedo-religeo nonsense, the Da-Vinci Code didn't have Keanu in it did it?
rock on WMC - cool name
from The Body Electric?
GraceUP - one of my favs

QUOTE (GeddyRulz @ Dec 9 2007, 05:38 PM) I think the Matrix films are pseudo-intellectual garbage for people who can't handle reality. OK, blue pill - stay in what you understand

Bad Movies
in Video Vertigo
Posted · Edited by Inthend
The book sucked ass too. I realize that Oprah's Book Club would give me a beating if they heard me say that, but I hated it. Needless to say, I stayed far, far away from the movie.
Have to disagree with this one.
First time i saw it, thought it was draggy and depressing.
Saw it again on tv a couple years later and enjoyed it more.
There was some pretty good acting thruout altho still think it was a little long.
Bottom line, this movie does have some redeeming qualities.
And i'll say the same for The English Patient.
So then, so far we have the following that everyone agrees on is crap :
Pearl Harbor remake (the orginal was excellent)
Ishtar
Shanghai Surprise
Mission to Mars
Little Nicky
The Eye
Diaster Movie
The Strangers
Starsky and Hutch
Catwoman
Armageddon
Street Fighter
Stop or My Mom Will Shoot
Down With Love
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
and i'll add Disturbia
I'd like to get a list that everyone agrees on, so if you would like any of the above taken off the list, please do so, or forever hold your peace.
