On Friends With Kids: A Mini Review

@olivebee No need for spoiler alerts. You could tell where it was going as soon as the opening credits ended.

On Friends With Kids: A Mini Review

@chapstick Hard to tell since her character was written as a caricature.

This movie would have had a chance if someone directed and starred in it. As it is, it is so grindingly narrow in scope. Also I spent half the movie trying to figure out what Jennifer Westfeldt did to her face. Then... of course that is not her nose.

On The League of Ordinary Ladies: Postcard From Paris

@redheaded&crazy Ok, here is my French language in France story. I was doing pretty well just sort of nodding and indicating what I wanted to buy at most stores. But I had to buy stamps for post cards. So I went to the post office and asked what was the word for for stamps and then the guy asked me what price. So I said they were for post cards to mail to the US. So he says "timbres de cartes pour quatre-vingt huit cents" or whatever it was. Then I needed some more so I had to go back but his window was busy so I go to the next one. And he remembered me and was watching to see me mangle this again. But I proudly announced "Je voudrais deux timbres de cartes postales pour les quatre-vingts huit cents s'il vous plaît" and he smiled.

On Scandals of Classic Hollywood: Katharine Hepburn's Trousers

@oak FWIW Beachwood and Tamarind run parallel to each other and do not intersect. So, regarding whatever else the book claims, the publishers skipped basic fact checking.

On Scandals of Classic Hollywood: Katharine Hepburn's Trousers

One of my favorite bits of trivia about A Philadelphia Story is that the necklace Virginia Weidler wears as she enters in toe shoes and sings "Lydia the Tattooed Lady" is a replica of this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affair_of_the_Diamond_Necklace.

On Actually Ask a Nurse

@dracula's ghost I had been using a duvet for years and never had them. So I did not think that was the problem. I switched to a quilt and they stopped. Might not have been the cause but it helped.
