Nrealitydenial I'm a fan of the first two Shrek movies. I want to see the latest one but the price at the movie theaters can be so high. Looks like I'll be waiting for the DVD. Thanks for the review though. Glad you had a good time!

Nrealitydenial Weight watchers is a wonderful program. I was on it in 1993 and lost 80 pounds. That was before their latest programs but I'm sure those are really great. I haven't been to weight watchers in years but if I had the money for meetings I'd rejoin and get on...

Nrealitydenial I've listened to country music since the 1990s. I like newer country music. I like singers like Keith Urban and groups like Rascal Flatts and Emerson Drive. But I also like other types of music. It really depends on my mood.

Nrealitydenial I remember that song and I like the quote. It's something I needed to hear today. Life seems to be getting stranger and more complexed for me at times and I feel lost in the shuffle of life around me. It's good to know that I'm not the only one who hasn't...

Nrealitydenial That's the first time I've heard of anything like that. I've always been told to drink more water and the more I try to take care of my health... the more water I try to consume. But that kind of thing gives me a scare when it comes to overdoing the water...

Wondering..

Kalachia @Kalachia (230) • United States 11 Jan 07

What is the main thing that makes you want to lose weight? Is it the public's reaction to you, or is it something inside you that tells you you're just not in shape? I think it's a little bit of both for me.

Nrealitydenial The main reason I want to lose weight is to "blend" in more in society. I've been overweight and made fun of most of my life and when I care too much what other people think sometimes- it hurts. Sometimes I just want to be invisible which is why I want to...

Movie Re-makes or Originals?

Inklings @Inklings (1255) • United States 4 Dec 06

Do you like it when filmmakers re-make old movies? Two of my favorite movies are re-makes of old ones -- Father of the Bride (with Steve Martin) and Sabrina (with Harrison Ford). I liked both of them more than the original...

Nrealitydenial I adore the remake of Sabrina because Harrison Ford is one of my favorite actors. Although both are good for different reasons. They suit different time periods. I agree with the post about the original Willy Wonka with Gene Wilder as well. Johnny Depp...

Nrealitydenial My favorite teacher is Snape. To me he's the kind of teacher you hate to love and love to hate but like inspite of it all. His character makes you wonder if he's really loyal to Hogwart's or not.

Snowflake Method

kartikkiran @kartikkiran (10) 30 Dec 06

Nrealitydenial Kartikkiran, thank you for sharing this idea. It is a great idea. I've started novels in the past only to stop at about 30 pages from rereading it and thinking I just wrote garbage. This sounds like a good example to use when piecing a novel together.

Why does beauty matter?

doran28 @doran28 (109) • United States 28 Dec 06

Is it just evolution, picking the best mates based on looks? Or are more attractive considered to be better people and have better habits? Can you really tell stuff about a person by how attractive they are?

beauty

1 response

Nrealitydenial People who take good care of themselves are attractive to me because they do care in the first place and it shows. But what is attractive to one person may not be the same to another. Beauty truly does seem to me to be in the eye of the beholder even though...
