Now I'm off to the commissary to score some of this for our cat. I noticed she has a few bits left in her bowl and nothing but dust in her empty food bin. Pathetic.
Hope ya'll are enjoying your Valentine!

Some Thoughts
We just returned from seeing Coraline at the cinema. I'm going to say it was visually appealing and the storyline strange, but good. There was only one scene in which I gasped at - for the sake of all the small children in the theatre: There are two old gals living in the basement apartment of the pink house . . . in the world behind the door, these old gals have an act where they each sing in rivalry fashion - but the one is basically Dolly Parton in the front with the sisters niples only covered by sequins and a skimpy sequined bottom. Let's just say, we get to spend a good three minutes with this character (un)dressed as such. For a PG film rating, folks, beware of this "no point for it" scene. My youngest is eleven - he noticed (he didn't like it either). My husband even said, "What the heck? I'm offended!" Other than that, it's an okay film. It will cost you, though! $47 for me, my hubs, and our three kids. No military discounts 'cos you are also paying for the "Austin Powers" 3D specs.
Hope ya'll are enjoying your Valentine!

thanks for the warning. the kids have been bugging me to go see it. but with three boys who don't really need to look at nipples, i'll not take them.....
happy day! =)
Now why did they NEED to do that??
I started reading the book the other night but I fully admit to being creeped out right at the beginning when the door opened itself up in the night....not sure I will go back and finish it. Yeah, I'm easily spooked! LOL!
I am not up on movies, so have not heard about this one. That said, the review you gave is excellent and exactly why I do not go to them any more. Seems every one that is out has its obligitory sex scene in it. One that has no bearing at all on the movie. Do not need it so do not go.
argh, why indeed.. silly!! Thanks for the review and the heads up!!
It's a cartoon! Aren't they concerned at all with making money. I definitely would've taken the kids to see it but I can't now. Thanks for the heads up.
I guess I'm off to Paul Blart: Mall Cop.
Well, what's worse is that in their act they both unzip off their old bodies and are svelt lovelies (though only a tad better dressed). Still - why the blatant costume? Trying to make things like that (like looking at the Swim Suit edition of Sports Illustrated) an every day thing that isn't a big deal . . . basically, I appreciate a nice body, but let's cover it and save it for our future spouse! Even if I could "get away with" wearing a two piece - I wouldn't. It's like walking about in my undergarments! That's always a no-no in anyone's book. Well, except Madonna (the singer) perhaps.
