Oz ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Why the fuck don't people accept meeting invites, when they intend to attend the meeting? Or, better yet, why do they accept the invite but not send the response? That's too lame to even be passive aggressive. It's just mean.
Also, unrelatedly, I don't mind movie remakes. It's perfectly possible that *this* version could be the better one. I don't have to like The Wizard of Oz, for instance. I might like the next one.
I don't mind remakes per se, but I do mind lazy halfassed filmmaking. Which is what 90% of the current crop of remakes are.
But True Grit looks like it's going to be awesome.

Oh, yeah.

I only send a response if I know it's a small group of people (so as not to inundate the senders mailbox) or I'm actually sending a message back.
Wow, this is really cool: [link]
Yeah. I love things like that, that reveal what the brain is really up to....

Grapes of Wrath! My Little Pony! Flowers for Algernon! Guns of Navarone! I need to watch that and take notes.
It's been snowing all morning here. I slid twice coming back from the grocery. Deceptively pretty snow, with icy evil underneath.
Dang - DH just had to pay $200 out of pocket for his DTaP booster! It hadn't even occured to me that insurance wouldn't cover a vaccine, but I now understand why most adults aren't up to date on their pertussis vaccinations.
Still, that's fucked up. Vaccinating adults for pertussis SAVES BABIES' LIVES. Are all insurance companies run by Wolfram & Hart?
If I didn't have a department meeting at 3, I would be so tempted to go home.
My boss, Citibank, and my dead cell phone can all kiss my ass, FYI.
That's odd, Jessica! I mean, not that I disbelieve (it's totally the shitty-insurance-company thing to do) but it's also one of the things supposed to be (when??) covered by the new Obamacare, I think--vaccinations...
