There's a connection between Dean in Rebel Without a Cause and Holden Caulfield in Catcher in the Rye. I'm not quite sure what it is, maybe Dean is a less realized version of Caulfield, but it's there and both spoke to the time. Perhaps it says something that Caulfield continues to speak to us today while Dean feels somewhat dated. Whether that's about the limits of film and the power of the novel, or Dean's performance and Salinger's writing, I don't know.

Criss cross!

Hey PB, how was the second season of Fringe? The wife and I bought season 1 on DVD and enjoyed it. We're waiting for Season 2 to come out. Was it as decent as the first season? Better (I hope)?

His first major film was really good - Pi He's a young director who actually lives up to the hype.

There was a time when I thought this guy was destined to be the next great director, like Scorsee, Coppola, etc. But he's so hit or miss. Se7en and Fight Club were incredible. Zodiac was forgettable but ok. Panic Room was a snore. Never bothered to see Benjamin Button.

Hitchcock. Almost everything he did was amazing.

When I was in 3rd grade (how old is that?) I clearly remember being a latchkey kid. I wore my housekey around my neck on a chain because I kept losing it. After school, I'd ride home (maybe 2 miles), let myself in, and be alone for 2 hours before my parents made it home from work. I don't remember what I did, but I don't remember watching TV. I think I just played with my toys, which were 90% Legos and Star Wars stuff.

My son is 3. I am not going to do well when he reaches 1st grade and I'm confronted with this. I will likely bulldoze my way past this bureaucratic BS and just get my son. I know it'll cause all kinds of problems, but I've never been one to take the idiocies of the system well.

I think it'd be a good move for the owners to offer this in exchange for a reasonable rookie cap.

How, exactly, have times changed? Just curious.

At least these are all real chick flicks. Too bad they all suck, except maybe A League of Their Own.

Not sure what you mean, but you caught me editing my post.

While we're at this, let me pose this to you all - 37 year old guy and a 19 year old girl. The guy acts much younger than his age, is a free spirit, and very amusing. The girl acts far older than her age. She finished high school at 16 (she's hot and smart), traveled the world for two years, and now is going to college. All her friends are either grad students or older. She finds people her own age very trite and boring just as the guy finds people his age boring. The girl only dates older men. Her last boyfriend was 31. Despite all this, it's a pretty big age gap, right?

Tough call. You are 20 and she's barely 16. I tend to think no. If she was 17 and a high school senior, I could see it. But barely 16 means she probably just finished 10th grade. You're what? A college junior? It's kinda creepy.

It's funny because you were the one focking my wife, not me.

In high school I had mine play the opening of Time by Pink Floyd - ONCE. While it looked good on paper, turns out a gazillion alarm clocks going off is real annoying to wake up to. Now I wake up to a recording of my wife having an orgasm.

You needed that to figure out it was a shtick FB account?

Activities: sucking c0ck for liquor

When I switch to a new window on my computer (say from MS Word to Firefox), I click the new program upwards to 10 times in a row. It makes no sense. I don't know why I do it. I just do.

I voted yes, even though I used a "nature sounds" radio instead. I have rain or ocean waves on all night.

I'm afraid of pickles. There, I said it. The pickles are out to get me.
