Listmaker at the Movies
Linda Linda Linda made me realize I'll never get sick of good films about teenagers. The masses out there can have their Degrassis and OC's as long as I can occasionally be privvy to a movie this good.If You Want My Bocce
I'm in the midst of posting player profiles for all eight of the players on Team Rod. Apparently, Floyd is going to put together trading cards for all of the teams at some point. Consider this a sneak preview.
Greatest Bocce Moment: Making a 9-year-old cry in front of his parents.Baseball Diaries
I took a long break from writing in this space. But now I'm back and have half a season's highlights to regale you with. I just posted the first game of Baseball Trip '06 on the blog.
Balgavy at one point commented, "I've never been to a ballpark with so many white people in my life."The people behind us had this to say when Royals shortstop Angel Berroa was announced. "An-hell? That's weird."
The baseball and movie blogs are listed conveniently at the top of my links to the right. I even update the date when I post a new entry so you don't have to bother checking in if I haven't posted recently. I hope to post a new entry fairly regularly in the baseball blog until I finish with the misery that was Game 7 of the NLCS.
The bocce blog can be found about halfway down my list of links.
Anyway, that is all for now. You have your assignment.

No doubt about it; Dave making that kid cry was one of the funnier things I've ever seen.
I wish the movie stuff was just written here, what's the deal. A lot of my friends have multiple blogspots, it's like Blogger encourages people to always be starting new blogs, when really they would be better served by a CMS that allows you to use categories.
the main reason i don't put the movie stuff on here is that i like being able to just have it all in one place rather than interspersed with everything else. same thing with the baseball.
What? No Myspace? I thought i had a lot of blogs I think were about even. I had to get a myspace to communicate with my Sunday School students. funny huh? I will add these blogs to my links
I don't like to read about movies unless I have seen them. I can't explain why. But I went back and read the reviews for things we've seen. And commented on your Little Miss Sunshine review, even though we'd already talked about it.
Have you seen/will you see Stranger Than Fiction? Or Running With Scissors? Look at that - I have seen TWO whole movies in two weeks. That's more than my usual yearly quota.
Sports are dumb.
I like that you have separate blogs.
bri,
now that i'm a netflix person (although they aren't off to the best start with us - the first disc arrived cracked and unplayable) i think both of those will be netflixed for me.
i loved running with scissors the book but for some reason the movie doesn't excite me.
were those two movies good?
see kfan, somebody likes my separating my blogs. hell, i've even considered starting a separate music blog but don't think i'll actually do it.
No you should start a music blog
definitely
We were happy with Netflix's response when we had a bad disc - they sent another one out before even receiving ours so we had it really soon and could finish the movie that froze one hour in. That redeemed them a little for me, because yes, the discs are often messed up in some way. We just didn't care at first because we were watching Alias almost entirely for the boobs so if we missed a few minutes it really didn't matter.
I won't even begin to try to say if the movies were good - you and I don't always agree. I didn't read the book (odd, as it would be right up my alley but I just kept forgetting about it) of Running with Scissors but I can say that the movie made me weep and weep. But my family is kind of messed up and I have mental illness issues so it hit home to some degree. Weeping. Copious tears.
I loved the other one from a writerly standpoint. Nothing earthshattering but fun.
