I was the one who advised you to use your FSA to pay for it. Which reminds me ... note to self: find out if new job has FSA benefit. Not listed on the benefits summary sheet, so I'm not optimistic.

Slappie 9 #22 November 15, 2005 The Life of David Gale Was a very well done indie film. I found the plot rather twisty and confusing at first. Then the possibilities started to reveal themselves. Was a nice change of pace not to get the main plot bogged down with a love story. Stick to the story. Not revealing to much of the movie, recommended viewing. Careful who you watch this with, could degrade into a political debate. 8 of 10 in my vote.

Slappie 9 #23 November 15, 2005 Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil A visiting city reporter's assignment suddenly revolves around the murder trial of a local millionaire, whom he befriends. Another goos Spacey film. Was 97' 2 years before AB. Was panned because the screenwriters pretty much chunked the literary version and hacked out what they wanted. Still a good movie if you don't compare it to the book by the same name.
