THEY ARRIVE AND LEAVE THEIR MARK IN THE SKY
“From October 23 Through November 3, Look Up at the Sky Near Select Landmarks to Observe The Visitors Leaving Their Mark

I’m am so much more enthused about Caprica now that I’ve seen some of it’s possibilities. It seemed a bit stuffy before but it is apparent that they are trying to give it more of a contemporary feel despite the fact that we now know that in the BSG-verse it is set thousands of [...]

I only first heard of “9″ very recently whilst exiting the theatre where we saw “Up” (great flick–go straight to see it) when my son remarked that “9″ looked “interesting.” I figured it would be promoted when it was due to come out and I’d read more about it when it did to [...]

The question: What, if anything, do you gain by being on Twitter and actively using the service? was recently asked on a forum I frequent and given this great graphic that I came across today, I thought I’d share my thoughts on Twitter.
What I gain from Twitter is:Resources, Readers, Ego boost, Post ideas, Work, Connections.Am I [...]

CLICK to embiggen the photos above!

Above are photos of Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, director Quentin Tarantino (shown dancing), Diane Krueger (shown with Tarantino and Pitt) and Krueger’s boyfriend, Jonathan Jackson–all at Cannes.
Angelina Jolie has been a standout on the red carpet at Cannes over the past several years, [...]

I pretty much agree with the “Vulture” critic from whom this list came and whose comments I excerpted snippets from. Of the ten films, I’ve seen five and have started watching the scenes. Some go as long as 18 minutes. Most are a couple minutes long.
More entertaining than I’d thought. Be [...]

Wow. Frank took some time off from posting new secrets over the holidays. He finally posted today and there are a bunch of really good ones!
My “favourite” includes three Post Secrets.

Immediate reaction: chuckle.
Keep in mind though laughter is actually tied into shock, surprise.
My teenage son is a student driver and the last thing I need [...]

…happened to be the very first one:
Many more secrets are revealed at Post Secret each week.

I’m trying to picture this person spreading holiday cheer by not declining maxed-out credit cards for Christmas tress. Is he/she a corner-lot Christmas-tree seller? Perhaps this is a person who works for a mega store Christmas tree seller like Home [...]

First, though I think it may be temporary, Frank at Post Secret has left up last week’s secrets in addition to adding new ones for this week.
I believe he’s done so because most of the secrets from last and this week have a reference of some kind to the holidays–or perhaps he just forgot to [...]

This is an interesting one.  I guess I’m pretty far out of the loop  as the only “drugs” that I can think of that might be “made” in a bathtub is marijuana. I don’t think the poster is referring to pot though as wouldn’t he/she have said “grown” (the drugs) in the bathroom?
So what the [...]

I’m not sure that “favourite” is the right word for this Post Secret postcard.
It certainly is the one that resonated with me in the most intense way.
Regardless of  your politics, if something as terrible as this post card implies were to happen, it would be  an earthshaking event.
I’m from Illinois and because of this I’ve [...]

Grim news: Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello delivered a grim outlook last week: “An SCC insider tells me that if the show’s numbers don’t start to climb, Fox is unlikely to order any additional episodes beyond the 13 currently in the pipeline.”
Just one more time may I say, I love Summer Glau. But she’s slumming with [...]

This is my favourite Post Secret because despite appearances to the contrary, it’s content is the least startling.
I don’t anticipate having the above post card-writer’s problem because my spouse is one of 7 kids, including three girls.  Since he’s a guy spouse gets off the hook a lot easier. I think the postcard author should start checking [...]

What criteria do you feel makes a good QotD?
A good Question of the Day should open up the possibilities of an answer that reveals something about me that I might not have thought to write about and in reading other’s answers I’ll be enlightened about them as well.
I need to be able to relate to [...]

I keep going back and forth between excitement and dread at my impending trip north. I have no idea when the last time was that I spent a week alone, without child, spouse or dog.
I have a thousand-and-one things to accomplish at the Lake this summer and I won’t get to but the tip of [...]

I apologize. Truth is, this is a favourite but not from this week. I didn’t have any favourites this week though there were some good ones. I have this–another Post Secret favourite of mine.
I like that it’s message simple, yet profound. I think unless we walk around with rose-coloured glasses 24/7 we can relate to [...]

 This is my favourite Post Secret  postcard from this week:

It took me a moment to “get it” but when I did, it made me laugh.
I live with three males and I have no doubt that in a pinch a scenario like this is quite possible.
In other “news,” I got drilled today. My tooth did anyway, [...]

What piece of advice do you wish you could take?
No one really tries to give me advice because frankly, I think they are afraid to as I used to be a bit more prickly than I am now. Not to say that I don’t have my moments even now, but I am older and at [...]

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers: Debut Album

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers pierced-with-a-guitar heart logo has been my favourite rock logo since first laying eyes on the album cover thirty years ago. I thought that someday I’d get a tattoo of it with a slight modification–just the heart with the guitar piercing it.
I’ve always [...]

 
I couldn’t get what I needed for The Love You Make with the free host I was using so I moved from WordPress.COM to Wordpress (the proper name is WordPressMU(sp) or the like (I may have it backwards) but no one seems to want to call it that) this and my maplelakeontario site which I lost completelyin order [...]

  
This one above is slightly evil, slightly daring, and an undetermined amount of stupid.
Go see for yourself, there’s many more…           Post Secret

My second favourite (click) or visit   Post Secret.

I was thumbing through a copy of Rolling Stone Magazine the other day, one of the last days of my son’s high school break. I’m way behind and since this was a special issue, I’d sat it aside and finally decided I’d best make time to check it out thoroughly and anyway, I’m doing a sort of [...]
