Movie Viewing Update

By Lisa -
Wow, haven't posted much here lately. I've seen Bolt (LOVED it!) and The Day the Earth Stood Still (LOVED Keanu) in the theaters and plan to write reviews of both of those, when I can find the time.

Movies I've seen for the first time on DVD include:
John Tucker Must Die - not as awful as I assumed it would be
Journey to the Center of the Earth - Ditto
Sense & Sensibility (1995) - Excellent! Be sure to watch the deleted scenes!
Possession - Pretty good
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - Not too bad!
Get Smart - LOVED IT! Hilarious!

And I've seen these on DVD, but had already seen them in the theater:
Mamma Mia
The Dark Knight
Wall-E

October Reads

By Lisa -
Finally - my October reading list! Only 6 books, but one of them is the longest book I've ever read. And I've been working my way through another of Diana Gabaldon's books on audio, though I didn't finish that yet. Read on.... No Need for Speed: A beginner's guide to the joy of running by John Bingham - 10/12/09 Excellent - Non-fiction [999 Category - Serendipity 1 (revised category)] This couch potato turned back-of-the-pack athlete has uncovered the path to joy, contentment, self-discovery, and life-changing success, all by putting one foot in front of the other. As you may know, I have started jogging this year and I'm certainly not fast. This book was very helpful in setting goals and realizing a healthy approach to one of my new activities.
