Shmaltzy, I know, but I liked "Emmet Otter's Jugband Christmas". Although it's surely better in my memory than on actual viewing. Other than than, SPOT ON Mr. Nolte.

IT'S CALLED A MUTE BUTTON, PEOPLE. LEARN TO USE IT.

Don't forget "Ant Bully"'s implicit marxism.

It's time it was said: Obama is not and never has been against gay-marriage. Yes, he has said he is, and more than once. The real issue is that OBAMA IS A LIAR. He is a talented speaker when in front of a teleprompter, but he will prove to be a poor politician because you can only tell everyone what they want to hear for so long before people start to notice that you have been saying and doing and promising things that are either incompatible with or the exact opposite of what you said earlier. His words are already starting to come back to haunt him and will continue to do so the more he opens his mouth. Do we really want to continue crowing about how Obama is against gay marriage when they don't believe it, and for that matter, neither do we?

Adam Baldwin continues to impress me both at his profession and as a decent and profoundly honorable human being. Thank you Adam!

I LOVE profiles of character actors like Mr. Sanderson, and it seems his character is stronger than most by far. I'd appreciate seeing more of these.

So Greg, you say you've "never met a pro-choice advocate who can say she wished she’d aborted her obviously adorable child (I’m still waiting!)."

Allow me to introduce you to the truly diabolic concept of "Wrongful Birth Lawsuits"

Bill who?

Well, *good* horror is. For an excellent example of this go back and watch the original '60s version of The Haunting. I've watched it dozens of times and i never get bored of it.

If you've given up on King, allow me to heartily recommend Dean Koontz, especially his Odd Thomas series as a fantastic and fantastical series with a very traditionalistic outlook.
