JCanham Hate to say this, but we didn't enjoy christmas. Several contributing factors to that statement though. My wife and I aren't christian( she's Jewish, and I'm not of any particular faith), yet we have family members that are. Well, Her aunt planned for...

What book are you currently reading? Why did you choose that one?

bayernfan @bayernfan (1430) • Canada 16 Dec 08

The question is straight forward, what book are you reading at the moment and how did you come about choosing that one? Right now I am reading The Coldest Winter: America and the Korean War By David Halberstam. I am interested...

JCanham I agree. I also like Orwell's "1984", which I found to be a very disturbing look at the future and an intriguing attack at socialist governments. James Clavell has quite a few novels out, so if you get the oppurtunity to read shogun, and you enjoy it, there's...

How often?

vanonas @vanonas (949) • United States 15 Dec 08

How much do you like to read? Do you like reading before bed to help you fall asleep or just during the day while you're cooking up lunch and dinner?

JCanham I try to read at least an hour a day. It usually ends up being much more than that. I read whenever I'm in the bathroom, and before I go to bed, but if I have the time, I'll lay down on the couch for a bit and read.

JCanham Yes, the question is straight foward. However my responce isn't. I'm not currently reading just one book, but four of them. So, here they are, in no particular order. "Of Mice and Men", by George Steinbeck. I love they way this man wrote. I haven't read this...

What do you think about the Nintendo Wii

corey151302 @corey151302 (105) • United States 12 Dec 08

I think that the Nintendo Wii is amazing. I think it is an ultimate step forward in censor technology. I find it a ton of fun to move the cursor on the screen, jab forward, sway from side to side, and ultimately a ton of other...

JCanham I think the Wii is a waste of three hundred dollars. The way I see it, it's just a three hundred dollar PS2, and yes before any Wii enthusiasts go on the offensive here, I have played the Wii. I'm just not impressed. Honestly, the Game Cube was a better...

Do you like watching movies alone or in the company of someone???

Lifeless @Lifeless (2635) • India 14 Dec 08

Hi people... Movies are for everyone to watch.. There are horror movies, romantic movies, action flicks and a whole lotta more.. But it depends on person to person, whether he/ she likes watching movies alone or...

JCanham I go both ways on this. I love to watch movies by myself, and in the company of friends and family. I just enjoy watching movies, so it really doesn't matter to me if there's someone else there to watch with me.

JCanham I use a custom built machine. It gives me the freedom to upgrade as I choose. With brand computers I've found upgrading to be a real chore. Many come with onboard sound and video cards, and also come with an insane amount of pre packaged junk that you don't...

JCanham You know, it's funny that you mentioned Tom Robbins. I'm currently reading Jitterbug Perfume by him. Anyhow, to contribute, I have a large list of suggested reading material, but I'll try and keep it relatively short. In fact I can make this quite simple, any...

ON SEQUELS : Would you like to see a forth part of Mad Max?

octavian @octavian (200) • Romania 11 Dec 08

I am sure that everybody knows the awesome trilogy, starring Mel Gibson, Mad Max. The first part came out in 1979 almost 30 years ago, and the third one in 1985. I did not like the first part, but the second and the third were...

JCanham I too am a big fan of the Mad Max trilogy and post apocolyptic stories(Fallout any one?). However I'd have to say that my gut responce to a new Mad Max movie would be no. I would like to see a continuation of that universe, but I think another form of media,...

JCanham Well, it's like you said. Some foods are great left-overs; others not so much. For me most pastas, e.g. Spaghetti, Lasgna, etc., make for great repeat meals, as do most soups, stews, and casseroles. The food items I find most difficult to recycle are gravies...
