Guest #1 November 26, 2003 Hi all, I went with the spousal unit to the movies on Saturday. It was my birthday - I'm now at the "Answer to the Universe" age, but I digress. Anyway, we went to see "Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World". Quade, you've gotta see this picture - it's terrific! I'm not going to write a review - instead, I suggest you read this one, written far better than anything I could have done. mh"The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

I've read most of the series (twice), rationing it now to 1 book per year. I thought the movie was great, obviously fans of the series would have preferred a little more attention be payed to the books, but it kicked some serious ass.Life is ez On the dz Every jumper's dream 3 rigs and an airstream Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Casie 0 #7 November 26, 2003 I tooo have seen it & luved it!~Porn Kitty WARNING: Goldschlager causes extreme emotional outbursts!
