This year's topic: What is your top pro-choice hope for ( Read more... )

I found the full speech and transcript on the BBC.  (I think the vid should work even for non-Brits, since it's on the News portion of the site, not the TV section.  Don't hold me to that, though.)

I continue to be blown away by the man.  I'll be the first one to admit that it took a long time for me to warm up to him, but it seems like lately, left ( Read more... )

I mean, of all places... it's just not something I expected to see.

I stared a game of Golf Solitaire.  As usually happens with sites such as these, I had to sit through an ad before the game loaded.  Okay, no biggie; I understand these people have to make money somehow, otherwise they wouldn't be able to offer their services for free.

It was just a ( Read more... )

Mark the ones you've seen. There are 241 films on this list. Copy this list, go to your own account, paste this as a note. Then, put x's next to the films you've seen, add them up, change the header adding your number, and click post at the bottom.

That's one of those that NEVER gets old.  I'm so glad I found it on YouTube!  There is absolutely NOTHING Christmas-related on TV (unless you count the Christmas Friends episodes they're showing right now...), and I needs me some Charlie Brown to get me in a Christmasy mood.

Apparently Illinois just had one corrupt governor right after another.

I just saw this on Ravelry and had to share it.  It's too funny, and hey - it's got Margaret Cho, Jack Black, NPH, and a few other people I recognize but can't think of names for.

I'm looking for any and all information/opinions y'all might have on the book series Twilight.

The Hubster was at his best friend's house tonight, where they were apparently talking about it.  And I KNOW I've read some mention of it online, but I can't remember who, where, or when.  However, considering how much time LJ has been taking up in my life ( Read more... )
