Hiker769 It's so horrible to have the need to be tethered to it, isn't it? I can't leave home without mine either. Besides the fact that cell phones are so expensive, people think that they have to be in touch with the world at all times. I can't wait until my...

missybear @missybear (11391) • United States 29 Jan 11

I never was a big movie goer. I've been to the movies twice in the last 16 years and it was probably 10 years in between. With DVD's, computer's and movies coming to TV within weeks of being released I'm surprised the Theaters...

Hiker769 My wife and I go out to the movies 2 or 3 times a year, mostly because we can't afford it more. While I like to sit in my own living room and control the volume and pauses, it's nice to get out every once and a while, and enjoy the theater experience. We don't...

Am I weird?

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85146) • Shingle Springs, California 21 Jul 10
