Jessica 0 #1 June 14, 2001 ...she asked desperately, bored out of her EVER-LOVIN' GOURD.I saw Memento (movie about a guy with no short-term memory) the other night -- GREAT FLICK!! Tho I do wonder why he didn't wear a pen on a chain around his neck. Seems like it woulda solved a lot of problems. The premise was gimmicky, but unique. Three and a half stars.I've read a couple of bad reviews of Tomb Raider. I have a feeling of forboding. I had such high hopes. I'm still going to see it, though...Angelina Jolie, ROWR! I have a non-sexual girl-crush on her. Heh heh. SOMEONE AMUSE ME DAMMIT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyingferret 0 #2 June 14, 2001 Jessica,Have you seen Wonderboys? It is not brand new, and it is kinda unusual, but I really really liked it. Also, "non-sexual girl-crush on her" What exactly is that?Malachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pyke 0 #3 June 14, 2001 QuoteAlso, "non-sexual girl-crush on her" What exactly is that?I am guessing here, but I would have to say that A) she can certainly see why guys would want to do her and therefore she recognises how beautiful of a woman she is...or B) she recognises how strong of a woman, how independent, how unique, and also how beautiful of a woman A.J. is and therefore has a lot of respect for her, but can't see herself sleeping with her....or C) she is really a closeted lessie and well, doesn't want to break out on the forums and come out as she still isn't out in her real life!!!!!I go for C...it is more thought provoking and gives me the *warm fuzzies* in that special place!!!Kia Kaha,PykeNZPF A - 2584 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jessica 0 #4 June 14, 2001 Malachi, you're like the fifth person this month to recommend Wonderboys to me. I'll have to take a gander at it. QuoteC) she is really a closeted lessie and well, doesn't want to break out on the forums and come out as she still isn't out in her real life!!!!!Hee hee! It took only three posts for this thread to degenerate into something sexual. Nice.I ain't gay, but there's lots flexibility in that definition.

"How does it feel to freeze to death?""It's very uncomfortable at first," says the second woman. "You get the shakes and you get pains in all your fingers and toes.
