    I DON'T DO MORNINGS BUT...

                                          

    I have NEVER been a morning person. I am the type of grumpy guy you better not talk to until Noon and I have had my green tea and read the paper and then I might be civil. The later the day the more...

    I've been reading, and commenting, on a fairly new blogger whose posts are interesting, provocative and, in many ways, amusing, not to mention that she has had a good sense of humor regarding my remarks. Her posts are mainly aimed at women but...

    There is just something in "The Blind Side" that keeps it from being a better than average film and as much as I think about it I am unable to put my finger on it. All the acting is first rate. I am a fan of Sandra Bullock and she plays the feisty, Scarlet O'Hara type, accomplished woman, wife and mother perfectly, maybe too perfectly, as she seems to do nothing wrong and is always there, no matter what time of day, whenever she is needed. Oh, yes, I don't like her as a blond though the person she plays, Leigh Ann Tuohy, is a real woman, a blond, and this film is based on a true story. Tom McGraw...

    In response to GreatMartin's comment from Oct 31, 2009:

    I don't think you can subscribe to categories. You can subscribe to people's reviews and get a notice daily or weekly about what they write but I haven't seen a place where you can subscribe to categories. You can ask on the discussion boards. There is a wealth of knowledge there and VP also stops in and answers questions.
