[oog]Good for you. Curious if you have it correct.[/oog]
I don’t even think there is rain.
Well now there’s not. It’s all blue skies and chirping birdies, rainbows and moths.
**etv: **I’m liking this smoky cheddar.
OOG: Good lord, that’s totally understandable, and I dearly hope everything continues to be under control. Best wishes to you and your family.
Well, in the hopes that we guests may get to go home at some point in the near future, I shall keep jawing.
In fact, I spy a Karaoke machine attached to the T.V. over there, perhaps we should turn it on and sing ourselves hoarse. You may want earplugs.
Turn it off or I’ll kill you.
OOG: Sure. But I’ve been really busy this week as well, with not much opportunity to do more than just follow the thread (and not really come to many more conclusions than my last barrage of guesses).
I should be able to think of some questions sometime tomorrow, when things will be a bit more settled.
Do the crackers hold up against it?
Alright, alright. Calm down. I’ll turn it off. Please don’t kill me. I’m too young and too pretty to die. I don’t want to die.
In my opinion, plain crackers are best so you get all the flavor of the cheese. If you were asking if they hold up physically? Yeah, they’re not too crumbly.
So, choie, you hinted that you were born in Kansas City, live in Portland, and were at one time in Montana. Why do you move around so often, and why Montana and Portland in particular?
Also, in regards to the TCM movie festival, what’s so special about Minority Report? The others are Kubrick films, but Minority Report was Spielberg. A.I. was done by Spielberg based on a concept by Kubrick, so they have a connection, but why Minority Report as opposed to the other Spielberg films?
Hmmm, I don’t think I’ve moved around that often. But I can say that at present I’m living in the Prairie state.
Well, I wouldn’t want to think I’m a one-director-only kind of person, or for that matter, one genre. For example, when I want a real belly-laugh, I go for things like Groundhog Day, Princess Bride, or Spinal Tap. Which puts me in solid with the majority of the SDMB, heh, so I guess I’ll add something a little less popular: To Be or Not To Be (the Mel Brooks remake, not the original with Jack Benny).
choie’s quirk just doesn’t click with me, either. I thought for a while that she (you are a she, right) had to use a foreign phrase in every post, but there are a few that don’t, so I guess that’s just a genuine feature of choie herself, not her quirk for this game.
I could be trying to throw you off the scent. I wouldn’t try to analyze me. The more you try to pin me down, the less accurate you are likely to get. Sort of a mini-Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.
Re my gender: oh, let’s just say that at this particular party, and at this particular time, I’d call myself male.
Edited to add: erm… I think.
I find myself not liking movies as much as I used to. I find it harder and harder to suspend my disbelief the way I can with TV or fictional novels. Is it because they try to be that much more real and the differences between real life and their fiction are all the starker?
Posting is fun! See, everybody, I’m grinning! My mouth is open wide and my shiny white teeth are gleaming as I express my joy at posting!!
I’ve just been over here in the corner reading the book I brought in case the party was a little dull. Sometimes I forget to bring one which makes me sad. But obviously I remembered this time. It’s Time Cat, by Lloyd Alexander. Would anyone like to borrow it?
OOG: I got a bout of depression this weekend. Sorry for not posting.
Sorry for my quietude but I’ve been off in the den working on my game. Suddenly I started feeling all inquisitve and I just had to jump in and ask stuff. Like, is it a good idea to buy a Mac Pro second-hand? Could you walk down the stairs without looking? How do you deal with an oily scalp? When the future inevitably echoes the Jetsons and we get our flying cars, what would the “rules of the road” be like?
Anyone? Bueller?
I’ll trade you your depression for my situation.
No, it’s mine, my own, my preciooousss!
Man, I hope no one was gazing over my shoulders. Maybe it’s paranoia now!
Oh choie if you do get a second hand Macbook Pro, make sure it’s free of any keylogger, or else your Facebook account will get unwanted attention, like what I suspect happened to mine…
(At least that you-know-who gets my password. I think.)
