J hasn't seen it yet, so tomorrow will be my second time but his first. I think it's one of those films which kinda demands a second viewing.
Good luck. Try not to kill people. Hands! Hands!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Chris Nolan directed the last movie I saw twice in the theatres, I think. I'm officially a fangirl.
Have you seen them all? I'm totally a fanboy. Not a dud in the mix.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We still haven't seen Inception. Of course, only saw the latest Harry Potter last week. I'm pathetic when it comes to movie viewing these days.
Kat, I am also happy to offer any help I can give to K while you're gone.

Zeppelins and Pixie cuts! Thanks Tom and tommyrot!
I concur with Amy's assessment - very much in the style of Mia Farrow's pixie cut. (As distinct from Morena Baccarin or Jean Seberg's pixie cuts.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Also, you can't really compare 2008 to now. This is the first time corporations can donate out of their corporate funds-from another article.
Which is why I made the caveat. But I bring the historical data to show that they did have a choice in who to support within the parameters that were there previously and as a corporation they have historically chosen to support both parties.
That being said, while I don't like that they spent $150K on a group that supports a total douchebag, looking at their overall picture and knowing that Target spends millions of dollars in direct support of their gay employees and those employees' spouses and/or domestic partenerships in direct benefits. I, personally, am choosing to see THAT as Target's position on gay equality. Not everyone gets everything right all the time. Not individuals and not giant corporations.

I'm not even sure total douchebag covers it.
There's this (BTW these people are likely to be regular Target shoppers) [link]

But this is what makes it beyond the pale [link]

I wasn't happy with how the group chose to spend the money, but Target is a single issue voter.

They are. Corporate greed at the expense of others. Now that they put their money where their mouth is (god, I never thought that ruling would screw with grammar too) they don't get mine.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And this is why corporations aren't people!! If my Orthodox friend was going to be a single-issue voter, she would have voted for McCain -- but she remembered how she has to live here, and added up what he would do to the US vs. what he would do for Israel, and seriously. Seriously.
