That people make up the version of religion that suits their
purposes? Er, seriously, curious what you mean by that. I mean,
there are a lot of religions. Saying "the truth about Christianity"
could make sense ... but most religions never even came up in the
book, that I recall. monique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully


Not my kinda movie. You intellectuals enjoy DaVinci w/my best
wishes.
I will be at local premier of X-Men sequel....Hugh Jackman w/more
facial hair than Jake Plummer......to each his/her own.


It's a funny coincidence you mention X-Men, Ian McKellen is in both movies.

You better keep those comics under lock and key....worth big bucks on the
collectors' circuits.
People would kill for signed first editions.....I know more about old comics
series than
religious tomes, LOL. Guess I'm one-a them "IQ Nerds", Matt.

Oh I know I am listed in their archives as owner of certain comics that only
a few exist. I do this every time I get a collectible or I know will be
worth some money. I get 6 of them one to lock away un touched, one to get
signed by who ever artist etc. One for the general to see and the last one
to be completely locked away and never touched. The first two that get
locked away are still shown when I go to a convention but the last one never
leaves the vault. The fifth and six are to sell if the money is right sorry
got to make a profit some how

I do them same about other collectibles I have never got into tomes or
other publications never got interested in them.

I travel the sci fi circuit and the comic circuit. I have a lot of movie
collectibles. My most recent purchase was items from the farscape series.
I got a drd and a pulse pistol that were used in the series. I have so many
autographs movie cells or items that I have a special room for them. My
most prized movie collectible is from the highlander series. A set Japanese
swords, a highlander sword from the movie that were used which were many. I
had Adrian Paul, Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery metal etch their
signatures into the blades during a convention show many years ago. That
gets a lot of oohs and how much will you sell them for. On the Gary gax
scene I have original items that were produced when D & D was still in the
underground. A lot of old stuff. God I am feeling my age now. I had
someone offer me a lot of money for a xman comic and I had to laugh I told
him I paid $1.25 for it when it was released.
My wife does not understand the whoopee about it but she says she rather
have me spend the money on that than going out and being a dirty old man he
he ha ha

Going to France is one dream I'm unlikely to realize at this point,
as well as my lifetime wish to visit the Hermitage in St. Petersburg.

Jo, you might be able to visit the Hermitage in Nashville

Being a revolutionary/civil war junkie, I "been there and done that".
Ditto Jefferson's place in VA. I really enjoyed getting a notion of
what these famous men's lives were like, and the ways of their
times. Also took in G. Washington's sprawling place....if you
ever go, check out the color combinations on dining room walls
(said to be Martha's taste, LOL).

No, no cats but but lots of paintings (LLL will love that it was

I usually skip movies because of my hearing. But if they were able
to film in the Louvre, I have to see it on the big screen.

Ron Howard (the director) was on The Tonight Show the other night and
talked
about how intense the negotiations were to get permission to film in the
Lourvre. One can only imagine the security that had to be dealt with!

That looks like fun. But given I grew up in Maryland, I've pretty much had
my fill of that era.

But I'd probably sell my soul and hock the family silver to be healthy
enough to visit the other one. I know myself and I don't travel well.
Sadly I inherited my family wanderlust but not their health.

I've been to Monticello and also to Mt. Vernon. Jefferson was quite the
inventor (think dumb waiter and lazy susan, not to mention he introduced
macaroni & cheese to this country). I'm afraid I don't remember the shades
of the rooms at Mt. Vernon. I do remember Jefferson had a bed that fit
between the walls of two rooms... he could get up on either side of the bed
that way LOL
