    Hey, thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed! My friend is doing it for his production class in college. I am going to NAB next week with Matt and his film Prof! It should be fun.

    It really happened. They were patients of mine, and the parents were TOTALLY freaked out (as was everyone else in the viewing vicinity), but then mom and dad noticed how \"minty\" the goo smelled...like toothpaste. hahaha!!! They had jsut taken the tube away from him before going down to dinner, so they put it all together. They also put him on a strict non-carbonated drink menu for a while. :P

    I second that, ...what movie? :)

    The story about the green ooze coming out of the kids nose and mouth was the strangest thing I've read in a while. Imagine seeing that happen at a restaurant. \"Waiter, I won't have what he's having!\" Did it really happen or is it an urban legend?

    Hope you all had a good long weekend.

    Left Behind: World at War. We're looking at asking Kirk Cameron to play the lead in our next film... Daniel (my friend) said to watch this film, because his acting and look are really good in it, and close to what we want. He said the cinematography was good too.

    Awww. Kirk Cameron... Growing Pains... My sister had a huge crush on him...

    He does alright in the Left Behind movies. He was more believable in the second than the first one.

    But if your tired, go to sleep! (that goes for all you others out there, Ginafish Mom is talking!) :)

    At least the third one wrapped things up, I think. But don't watch for the story. Watch it like an audition tape. How does Kirk do? :) And if you get bored by the plot - go pet Rosie, and get some shut eye. (insert snoring picture here (hint hint someone))

    I'll do that. The movie actually looks semi-interesting! Here's the trailer.

    I enjoyed both those. :) No matter Jane's politics, she still played a funny fanatic mother-in-law.
    I like Guess Who, but really \"felt more\" for the original with Sydney Poitier. The original really made you think in other words. Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracey - awesome!
    If you let Guess Who #2 stand on it's on, it's a funny light hearted enjoyable movie, The racing scene, hotel scene, still makes me smile months later... :)

    Hmmm random and fun conversations... New topic...

    What's the weirdest thing you've ever eaten?
    • 5130 posts

    haha!!! I am laughing because I just asked my daughter what the wierdest thing she's ever eaten and she said \"veal\". She's still not over the Schntizelhouse incident. :laugh: So I asked her what she thinks is the wierdest thing I'VE ever eaten, and she said \"squash\". She hates squash. I love squash. Never met a squash I didnt like.

    But I'd have to say the one thing I eat that I gets the most :sick: looks for is my peanut butter, carrot, and raw cabbage sandwiches on whole wheat bread. The carrots are shredded and the cabbage is super thin cut. yummy!

    Weirdest thing I ever ate was...... probably Balut... it's a boiled partially developed Duck embryo... it's a Filipino delicacy.

    Briceman....no matter what anybody else comes up with, I deem you the winner here. BLECH!

    What did it taste like??? (and dont say chicken!) :S

    It didn't taste tooo bad... the smell is horrendous. And the look. I'll post a picture tomorrow. It tastes like an egg... you put salt on it to give it flavor, so it tastes kind of like a hard boiled egg... just a little softer.

    Yes, I agree with thartley... :sick: You win Briceman. Did ya enjoy totally grossing me out? Did ya? :huh:

    If I think about it a minute, the pb/carrot/raw cabbage sandwich doesn't sound so bad. How weird am I? I don't keep a lot of cabbage on hand, so I can't say I'll try it any time soon, but maybe one day...

    Weirdest thing for me: a plain cake donut with Taco Bell hot sauce on it.

    Bman - clip looks exciting. Girls kicking boota are always HOT. :) Liked the pumped music too. I did kind of think the guys necktie was funny. Kind of bad Irish guy cliched. But, funny in a good way. Why is your friend Matt doing this short? B)

    How long is the short? I like the look of the short, but I didnt get point of it from the trailer. Maybe lack of dialogue or voice over? The only other thing I would \"try\" is using jump cuts instead of the dissolve transitions when they are bringing the guy into the warehouse. The dissolves might work better, but I'd like to see it with jump cuts. :) Will we get to see the whole thing sometime? What'd did Matt do this short for? :)

    No... NAB is a conference/convention for filmmakers. It stands for National Association of Broadcasters. It's a convention in Las Vegas next week.
