Golden Eye 007
I bought this N64 game for my husband for Christmas and he loved it and plays it all of the time. The packaging was a little disappointing as it was newspaper and it stained the cartridge, but the game plays perfectly and was a very reasonable price.

impulsebuyer This right here is a CLASSIC N64 game! I'd do anything to get this back in my life. How much is it going for?
riddlefish LOL. I could never figure out how to play this game! I would go into a bank and try to talk to someone and end up karate chopping them in the face and making the alarms go off, haha. My brother wasn't helpful either since he thought it was hilarious. ;p I'll stick with Zelda.

Any other classic N64 games you've found?
Batman Forever
I love all of the Batman movies. :)

joesdaily I watched this last night but a few things bothered me. I agree I enjoy all of the Batman films but this one can't compare to the vibe the second Batman brings. Jim Carrey saved the movie, and Chris O'donnell destroyed it. Oh and Val Kilmer needs to stop acting :)

My 2 cents
fnoo Hasn't he, pretty much?
Hoarders
I watched the whole first season of this show. It's disgusting and thought-provoking. It's also very eye-opening.
· tv season from Netflix
riddlefish Oh, man, I don't think I could handle a whole season of this. The couple episodes I've gotten sucked into I had to watch from behind my fingers. It either makes me want to clean or it makes me feel like I don't really need to clean because I'm not that bad, haha. ;p Which does it do for you?

PURPLE SOLID Hard Case Cover for NEW Macbook PRO 13"
Got this for my sister for her new Macbook pro. She LOVED it and it fit perfectly. Beautiful color and seems to be made of good material.

Rumble in the Bronx
Awesome. Jackie Chan, deliciously bad dubbing, and a predictable yet intriguing and funny story.
· movie from Netflix
Man v. Food
One or two episodes would be worth a watch but the main character acts like he's a superhero for eating tons of food which annoyed me a bit. Best part is the very yummy food shown and it will make you hungry.
· tv season from Netflix
Alice in Wonderland
Wonderful movie with complex characters, beautiful computer graphics, and wonderful acting. Wonderfully colorful and the characters are true to the original if not slightly more demented.
· movie from Netflix
Party Down
Ehh...Sort of drab. Not as good as the Office or 30 Rock, but it's not bad.

Stress: Portrait of a Killer
Great documentary on stress, though there was no miracle cure mentioned. ;) Reminds us that stress is a result of how we see our lives and that we can choose whether a hard day at work effects us or not.
ryan this looks like it would scare me =/
Facing the Habit
Interesting and disturbing. The main guy in this documentary had crazy potential that he can finally unlock once he got control of his life.
The Beautiful Truth
Great movie with a very reasonable point. Well done and interesting.
impulsebuyer What is the message of this movie? The cover looks very interesting (although I probably shouldn't judge ;)
Super Mario Bros.
Awesome movie. Have already watched it twice. It made me giddy watching it and the guy who plays Mario is very good. I loved the Mario World - made real part of this movie. Great fun for any fan if they don't mind a little creative liberty with the story.

fnoo Mario is Bob Hoskins, who also employed his American accent in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? I seem to recall he always has regretted doing this movie.
spacepants Dennis Hopper as King Koopa. Great. Flick.

Well, I mean... better than Double Dragon.

thecornergirl fnoo: Bob Hoskins also plays the bad guy in Unleashed. That is a GOOD movie.

heiditron: Agree!! I didn't mind it but at the same time it would have been better with a more believable Luigi. Maybe they wanted the Mario Bros to be more Mafia than innocent, scared Luigi?
amyuhrich HOW did I not know about this?
The September Issue
Good documentary on the making of Vogue's September issue. Very Devil Wears Prada but in real life.
· movie from Netflix
The Office
Kind of makes you want to cut yourself because of the awkwardness, but it's also very funny and it's part of what makes the show good. Very relatable for anyone who's worked in an office environment.

House
I didn't watch the whole thing because I didn't like it. It was too cheesy and I hated the intro music.
· movie from Netflix
fnoo Not big on Massive Attack, or is it just the reuse of existing pop music that bugs you?
thecornergirl I thought the song was so uncalled for- it was right after the kill scene. Plus the song sounded like bad Christian pop.
The kill scene in the beginning wasn't very good in my opinon also. I was expecting a way different intro. I had heard that the movie was good from a friend so I was expecting something pretty different than what I saw.
fnoo Oh, I see. Sloppiness on my end. This is a 2008 horror film. I thought you were talking about the Hugh Laurie medical procedural.
Valhalla Rising
Very weird and dreamlike movie about vikings. Seemed like a very realistic representation. Very little dialogue, and it was hard to grasp the plot, but it was worth a watch. :)

30 Rock
Amazing tv show. So funny and the characters are awesome.

3mm Sterling Silver Wedding Band Ring, 7
Perfect ring, though it runs a tad bit small. I would not have bought a half a size bigger, but I do not think it is quite a size 7. Ring is great and I wear it every day and was wonderful quality especially for the price.
amyuhrich Love sterling silver :) Which ring was it, specifically? It seems like some of the rings on Amazon fit true to size and others from different sellers do not.
thecornergirl Oh me tooo. It gets shinier the more you wear it. :)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0027UOQVA/ref=oss_product
here's the link to it. The ring is by seller Perry Olsen.
HoneyLub I love Amazon with a passion! Always find good deals!
riddlefish Is it a wedding band?? Did you get engaged??? :D
thecornergirl haha! Actually yeah, this was my wedding band. I got married the 9th of October. :)
HoneyLub I love weddings, thats fantastic!
Titanium 6 mm (1/4 in.) Comfort Fit Plain Dome Wedding Band / Thumb Ring...
AWESOME ring. It was a little too big for my hubby but I do not think that it runs small - we just made an educated guess. The ring looks beautiful yet manly on him and has a perfect matte luster.

fnoo It is also the default metal of sci-fi torture machines.

Which may be important.
thecornergirl that is very appropriate for wedding bands.
amyuhrich I was just looking at a bunch of these plain bands on Amazon the other day (I want to get a bunch of different sizes and thicknesses for stacking on various fingers). I think all in all I'll end up going with stainless steel (I've heard really good things) over sterling silver or titanium. Either way, I love how sleek these are.
thecornergirl Stainless steel is awesome. That was my second choice. There was also one other dark, glossy metal I'd never heard of but I loved, but the titanium was much cheaper.:)
Good luck with your ring purchases!
HoneyLub Titanium seems to be the way to go, congrats!
HoneyLub Have you gotten a dress??
Baby Savers
I love this cute little game on my HTC Hero. It's addictive - you have to try and save babies falling from a burning building and it starts slow and gets progressively harder. It's one of the best cell phone games I've found so far.
amyuhrich Noooo babies! :) Why are cruel game concepts usually the best?
thecornergirl Haha! I think maybe it makes you a little emotionally attached to saving the poor babies. Plus the sound effects are awesome. When you save them there's a cute "yay!", and when you miss one there is a squooshing sound. :D
