reesie That is very unprofessional and she would be in trouble if the owner saw her. That is a good way to lose customers because it is unsanitary. I hope at least she had plastic gloves on or washed her hands. I personally have never seen anyone do that.

reesie I'm not into horror that much, but I have to go with the classics and say Edgar Allen Poe. Edgar Allen Pose was one of the first authors I had ever had ever read. Not only were his stories interesting but so was his life. Stephen king is also a great writer.

Do you prefer the movie or the book?

Julie @movicont (495) • United States 11 Sep 08

I usually prefer whichever was created first, since the copy often misses some of the nuances of the original. The second one also just gets boring since I'm seeing it again. Your opinions?

9 responses

reesie I must say that I prefer to read the book over the movie. I have yet to see a movie that has given me the same level of satisfaction of the book. I like the idea of my own interpretation and imagination when I am reading. In the movies you have to go along...

reesie I think closure is helpful. I am the type of person who needs closure on things. If not it can feel like the situation will never go away because your always thinking about it. It is always good to put a period on the end of a sentence, so to speak.
