  1. Saw it today. Strong strong strong indictment of racism. Top contender for the academy award for the pic and especially Spike Lee. I gave it a 10 on IMDB. The sad thing is that it won't be seen by the people that need to see it the most: the bigots and Trumpeteers.

  2. Now Cher needs to do a cameo in Star Wars IX, as Princess Leia’s grandma from the fourth dimension.

     

    If she could be from the 5th dimension she could bring her own back-up group!

  3. I have had great success with Eukenuba - first puppy and then small dog and now older dog. Our girl is in great shape! Best of luck with the new baby. One suggestion: Be sure to go to 'Dog School.' It is more to teach you how to cope than it is for the dog....and it works!

  4. Dogs will make a speedy effort to comfort their owners if they think they are upset, a study has shown for the first time.

     

    Although anecdotally, dog owners claim that their pets are in tune with their emotions and will offer support in times of crisis, it has never been scientifically tested before.

     

    In a new study, scientists from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, US, took 34 dogs and positioned them behind a door which was closed with magnets, with their owners on the other side.

     

    While sitting behind the door, the owners were asked to either hum "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" or pretend to cry.

     

    They found that many of the dogs nosed their way through the door but did it three times more quickly when they thought their owners were upset and needed comforting.

    Why am I not surprised. I still think of all of my dogs - actually with me or living in my heart - every day! They were all comfort, love and unending joy!

  5. To make sure the conversation is interesting to me

     

    Isaac Asimov/QUOTE]

     

    Asimov was a despicable person. I had a very high opinion of him until I met him. At a function I was standing next to him when a newlywed couple was introduced to him. His response? He pinched the girls nipple. There went any respect or liking I could ever have for him. To physically assault a young (she looked to be about 18 or 19) girl and thinking he had the right to do so was disgusting. I not only would not have dinner with him, I wouldn't even invite him into my home.

  6. Um, if your ass and back are naturally smooth then you have no idea how they feel getting sugared. I can tell you, it hurts like hell.

     

    Not my experience.
