the other night, i was telling my dad about the movie "sin city". i told him it was a "comic" that was adapted to screen and the "comic" was actually from the graphic novel genre. he said, "i don't even know who JOHN RAH is!?" no dad, i didn't say JOHN RAH, I said genre. and proceeded to explain that genre meant a certain type of something. it ( Read more... )

i love creative, novelty items...i love shopping for them as gifts because you can usually find something that fits a person's personality perfectly...one of my coworker's birthday is next month and she's always letting people borrow her CDs. there have been some times as of late where her CDs have not been returned to her, so i ordered her a ( Read more... )
