but her lack of wanting to keep one is laziness. i agree with spikeyli. i know people like that and they don't just have minimum wage jobs. i don't think she ever said it was minimum wage anyways, plus her ex pays her child support and alimony and she just wants to live off that and not work...

oh, by far harris is better! he fits the description in the book so much better. he is supposed to be so old and have this quiet wisdom about him and i just don't get that with gambon (i think that is his last name). when i read the books, i only see harris in my mind's eye. i just can't get...

besides my children, for my birthday this year my mother gave me my great-grandmother's ring. i was closer to her than anybody when i was little and it meant the world to me to get this. i cried when she handed it to me. my girls were asking, "why is she crying?" and i had to explain how you...

Well, not because it was literary genius or anything, but Alexander Dolgun, An American in the Gulag. It is a true story - autobiographical I believe (with writer assistance). It makes you appreciate your freedom on so many levels and take stock of your own life and whatever you may whine...

well, for the depth of character (and that maybe she's a bit like me) elizabeth bennett of pride and prejudice, but the one against colin firth as mark darcy please. but, for all sexiness and fun, i would love to play elizabeth swann in pirates of the caribbean just for the fun and playing...

your first post i just felt empathy, because i can relate. i think everyone knows at least one person like that (a total narcissist). however, this post just literally pisses me off (excuse my language). she is a bitch. and i definitely don't advocate infidelity, but she probably got what...

well, not exclusively. fruit can ferment on it's own and create alcohols. we used to have several peach trees and a pear tree in our back yard and peaches, especially, would often fall off early or if they were ripe would fall before we got to them and some birds did and after they laid out in...

Well, I have gotten a few nasty anti-Christian messages, but they are always "under the breath" so to speak (well almost always). However, by-in-large, it is a great group of people! My son, who is 2 1/2, already loves books and has loved them since the moment that he could crawl over to...

what do you want me to do with them? lol be one, love one, hate one?

well, JKR has hinted that the mirror will make an appearance again, so i wonder if he had it on him when he went behind the veil and will eventually be able to make some sort of connection with harry through it. and, spikeyli, i TOTALLY know what you are saying about the mirror and harry not...

i see what you are saying. it is a sad thought. i am still not over sirius' death and i totally think dumbledore is alive (i have many theories on this, and some of them, if i do say so myself, are very plausible ;) ) i think if voldemort killed any of his innercircle, it would be enough to...

well,the Bible says he was made in God's image. Do you think God would look so-so? I imagine he is too beautiful to behold.

i can't go to bed without reading! and last night i lost myself in a book and was up until 2. i couldn't believe it when i looked at the clock!

i wanted to say, also, that i agree with your comment about books bringing people together. this forum has been a very interesting experience. there is such a diverse group of people!

thanks so much! you made my day! teaching them to read was just the beginning obviously, but it has been so fun! my twins just learned to read and the joy in them at this accomplishment is amazing! my oldest (who is 8) is already reading at a high school level and i love that she would...

i agree wholeheartedly

I agree with Neesey, but also wanted to mention Frank Peretti. It's been a while since I read two of his books, but I liked them when I read them. Because he is a religious author and it deals with religious themes, it is always put in the religious sections, but I think that is unfair. It...

i'm not a ridiculous person who goes to a certain unnamed site everyday waiting for sign to be removed from a certain door. :rolleyes:

yes! countless times! LOL! have you ever done something you're ashamed of?

interesting. thanks. i'll let her know! and i still do this with my athletic shoes, because for me it is comfortable. my mom always said i should be able to fit my thumb in between my bit toe and the top of the shoe. at some stores they tell me that i am doing it wrong, that this was for...
