    Lily Tomlin having a meltdown on the set of 'I Heart Huckabees'

    ... Oh my. That must have been a tad uncomfortable (both situations). What a potty-mouth - "F*ckabees" indeed. Lily! Remember the blanket!

    The most powerful films

    Come And See/Idi i Smotri. Once was enough. I know others who feel the same way because it bored or confused them, but personally, I've never felt so emotionally or physically drained after watching a film. Still glad I managed that one and only time, though.

    Lily Tomlin having a meltdown on the set of 'I Heart Huckabees'

    Ach, this an older post and the links aren't working any more, but I still adore this film and everything about it. Watched it again recently and have had the music score pleasantly stuck in my head since then - the tring-tring of bicycle bells being a very nice and infectious touch. :)

    Jack London

    The Iron Heel. I read it years ago and quite enjoyed it. Have been thinking for a while now that I might have another look and see how I fare this time. I didn't realise he'd written so much, and after reading blurricus's post ... ... I'll definitely be having a look for 13 Tales of...

    Usernames!!!! How did you get yours?

    I can't remember what I originally wanted, but it was taken. The name Sparky just popped into my head and wasn't taken. I quite like it, but I love BeerWench13's name. :D

    BSS? Three hours?! Whoa... I'll be seeing them at a music festival though, so I reckon the other bands would be a tad miffed if they played for that length of time. :D Hope you get to see them again soon. :)

    best concert

    All going well, I'll be seeing Broken Social Scene for the first time in August. Whatever they choose to play, I'll be happy, but if they play either Anthem for a seventeen Year Old Girl or Lover's Spit...........I'll melt.

    Hello From Austria

    I use it ocassionally, usually when I want something in a hurry, and whenever they have what I want, which isn't too often. Thanks for the welcomes, they are much appreciated and were really nice to log in and see on this dull and dreary morning. :)

    Hello From Austria

    Hi, everyone. I joined yesterday, have had a scoot around and this looks like a great forum. I read as much as I can, and am quiet heavily reliant on Amazon.com as I live in Austria. Ocassionally I find a good book in the English section though, and It was the discovery of Ian McEwan's...

    best concert

    Every And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead gig I've been to has been brilliant, even the last one where they all looked knackered before they'd even started. The same goes for Doves. And Mogwai were excellent too when I saw them recently.......I can't pick just one. As for my 'dream...
