    2. When that sword killed off that dinosomethingmonsterthing, I gave up. So in the end, all you needed was a sword.

    1. they had problems with directors and the first one did not earn as much as they though it would... so thus the delay

  3. I did like the movie First Wives Club. It was very funny. I could see how it could work as a television series.

    I heard Independence Day tanked in theatres. I don't know if that is true or not, but I kind of hope so as it might mean we'd never have to see another one.

    Well it's the 4th of July weekend here dahlink and peoples is already losing their minds. Traffic is horrific, peoples is drunk and shooting off fireworks already. This year I do have concerns about a terrorist attack since there have been the one in Turkey and one now in Bangladesh. It would be very easy to get into a firework celebration with bombs and guns as there really is no security checks for such things.

    1. I do love the 4th holiday and all of the pretty fireworks, but we'll be hearing those blasted things all week long. I wish they would just limit it to the 4th! I am with you on being extra cautious. Turkey had me thinking that we'd just stay home this year and enjoy the neighbors fireworks from our deck. I don't want to get stuck in stampede of Indiana rednecks should something go down at the city firework show.

    2. I still remember the song that the three of them sung in the FIRST WIVES CLUB :)

      It is tanking, apparently it will earn only 30 million this weekend, but Tarzan is tanking too and some idiotic horror is taking the second place which just shows the state of today's audience in USA.

      Dahlink, you cannot have terrorist attacks in USA since the USA government is behind the terrorist, thus the attacks usually happen everywhere else except there. They will sometimes let something happen just to ease the suspicion around themselves..... The Istanbul was terrible, it is close to here and I've always fancied myself going there, it is such a beautiful and huge city... it is terrible.

    3. @Theresa
      isn't the deck being painted, like right now? :)))

    4. Yes, the deck is just about done. One more coat and finished. Wasn't nearly as time consuming as I thought it would be. We'll be all ready to sit on it to try to catch some fireworks through the trees lol

    5. I should put a protective coating on the boards at my royal balcony too, but I don't even have the time for that :( And I'm not even talking paint, just that oily thingy that protects the wood

    2. they is killing multicamera sitcoms, I don't think we'll have lots of them, if any, this Autumn :( I'm currently watching UNCLE BUCK, it's a single camera, but it has the most gorgeous house and outfits, and the kids are all adorable, I think you might like it...
