it looks very supportive.

And honestly what I was trying for was an image of a pelican wearing briefs, but Google failed me.

*burns you in the wicker man*

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

[reyler]

*destroys everything that moves* WATCH OUT WORLD HERE I COME

 

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

cause it wasn't cartoony... so it was much scarier, like that thing there.

[reyler]

That was pretty much the point where the movie said "okay, we're not even pretending this is based on the book anymore".

[bad company]

Which is alot of movies based on books

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

it's often worse when they try to translate the word directly to the vision

[bad company]

indeed, though some needed to more then others

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

dune comes to mind.

[bad company]

Have the book still haven't read it

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

philistine!

[bad company]

Nope, Australian. You were close though

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

exiles. worse.

[reyler]

They don't actually exist.

 

Also I read Dune a couple of years ago and didn't care for it, the end.

[bad company]

It's amazing how somthing intangible seems to be posting

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

the second is better than the first, but regardless, it's required reading.

[bad company]

Why?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

because

[reyler]

So that you know just how much to dislike it.

I remember seeing a movie called Dune long, long ago. Maybe thirty years or so? I might have read part of the book, too. I don't remember. I recall something about a desert. Giant worms. Bad guys. Good guys. Or, maybe that was Eye of the World? I know I read that book at least five times. I'm tired. It's been a long Labor Day. Putting vinyl siding on the dormers. HOT !!! Sweat. Stink. Sore muscles. Good exercise. SUCKS !!! Summer is gone and I'm only a little over half done! And the garage badly needs new shingles before winter. Maybe steel? Don't know. Don't care. Bye for now.

 

Love,

Gramps

That guy from Twin Peaks was in it. That's all you need to know.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

the tv redo wasn't bad
