It's not only high schoolers anymore. Everyone that I know seems to have a myspace account, I am the only holdout. Most of my friends use myspace for networking and dating, and also for file sharing. I have several pals who use Myspace for advertising for the rock bands they are in. If you...

I actually like this show. It's fun to count how many times the "F-Bomb" can be used in fifty minutes. The writing is great, the only problem is all the characters pretty much have the same way of speaking - no diologue variation.

All right guys, Everything in my TBR list can wait awhile. I am interested in trying out some Nobokov. I will probably start with Lolita unless one of you could suggest a better story to begin my journey with. Thanks in advance! Justin

You can sure make me laugh sometimes Stew!!!:D Unfortunately wrbenton is explaining what is normally expected by Western readers most of the time. Genre fiction, especially Western and romance, is very formulaic. I don't agree with it, but it does put food on the table for the writer...

There are many translations out there. The one I like the best is Denma Translation Group's Sun Tzu The Art of War. It is accurate and has a very good analysis. It took the Denma group over ten years to translate and compile there analysis. It is based mostly on the Yin Chueh Shan text...

Stewart, Shame about the cinema forum, I had high hopes, just not enough members to keep it going. Now get to work on your TO DO list Stewart...oh yeah, and congrats. Justin

I always enjoyed watching his show. It always amazes me that after someone dies, you can not be critical about that person and the way they lived without seaming insensitive. Honestly, think back to all the times you were watching his shows, did you ever ask yourself: it is only a matter...

I was asleep in bed when my wife woke me up telling me "a plane just flew into the world trade center". We thought at the time, and so did the news show we were watching, The Today Show, also thought it was a horrable accident. A few minutes later we all knew it was no mistake.

The Matador!!! My wife and I just watched it Friday night, we really liked it! Pierce Brosnon had some great lines in this movie. I really liked the line about the prostitute after the sailors left town, that was great.

I checked out some of her paintings online. Amazing! Do you know if any of her work is displayed locally?

That certainly gets the imagination flowing!:D

I have read the book twice now and I really enjoyed it. I had no clue the book existed until my wife and I visited Savannah Last year. We were supposed to go to New Orleans last Labor day, but a hurricane hit, so we made travel arrangements for Savannah instead. We stayed three days at the...

A bit off topic...Stewart, do you keep a database of everything you have read and how the books ranked? I keep a reading journal and a database as well. Just curious. I have not read any of James Herbert yet. Any good suggestions?

:D I like IT! The magnet on my fridge is: We only serve fine wines...I hope you brought some!

Have a great time! Always wanted to go never been. I look forward to your pictures.

I cheated as well...I have never heard of the film...or the director! I am going to order it on NETFLIX and check it out. looks like a pretty good one.

Right now flash fiction is becoming all the rage. How short can a story actually be? The shortest example of a story I have found, is one written by Hemingway on a bet in a ba. The bet was that he could not write a story with just six words. It is as follows: For sale, baby...

You stumped me with this one...will have to think on it awhile. How long do we have to wait to get a hint?

Poppy, you stated precisely what I love about these guys (especailly Van Gogh) - simplicity! I have tried to paint in the style of Monet and Gogh, and although simplistic, it is very hard to do. Fortunately I did not quit my day job and most of my art supplies go unused these days; I still...

Perfecto, yes it was! This is an easy one, but one of my favourites: "The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother...
