Yes, I like it, but when I screen films, I prefer the noisy kind, with lots of SFX and action. Bond flicks are fun to screen, Bergman films are not. And Gore's film I must have screened dozens of times by now.

I have no problems watching noisy films if the sound is good. Unfortunately it seldom is. Most theatres either have lousy equipment or are poorly trimmed.

I actually went to see the latest Pirate epic. Way too long, and bad sound to boot.

My kids wanted to see it so I had no choice. I would gladly have waited until the DVD comes out if it had been just me.

i like to wair for DVDs. i don't like the stress of going to see a movie with a bunch of strangers. they might make noises, i'm extremely distractable.

Me too. People can never seem to just shut up in an auditorium.

I called Animal Control. We had a lost beaver in our yard just now. We are six blocks from the river and this poor guy had apparently dodged traffic all morning. He was obviously exhausted and needed water. Animal Control team was here in less than ten minutes and within five more they had safely captured him and he was on his way back to the river.

I have seen deer in our backyard at times, but that was the first beaver we've had in the yard.

A happy ending!

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.
