Sadly I haven't seen the movie because I live in a cultural wasteland and it never made it to the theatres, so I will have to wait for the DVD. I have read the book, however, and would recommend it to anyone. B_O_B

Way back in February, you recommended the Nightrunner Series by Lynn Flewelling to me. I just thought I'd send you a quick note that I finally got around to reading it, and really enjoyed it. I've finished that series and also read the first two books in her Tamir the Great series. I've really enjoyed that series as well (although now I have to wait a while for book three to come out oh well) Anyway, I just thought I'd say thanks for the recommendation. They were great books.

I hope you have a great day B_O_B

Hi, I just read a great book last night - North to Freedom by Anne Holm (originally known as I am David - I don't know why they changed the title). It's a story about a twelve year-old boy named David who has spent his entire life in a Eastern Bloc prison camp. One night he is given the opportunity to escape and told he must find his way to Denmark. He travels alone and on foot across Europe enjoying his freedom, but all the while fearing that "they" are waiting to recapture him and return him to prison. It's a great chronicle of his experiences, his hopes and fears and how he learns about the world of which he knows nothing. The author's descriptions of his emotions thoughts are very well written. This was a great book that once I stared reading I couldn't stop. I'm horible at writing reviews, and what I said above didn't do it justice, but, if you're looking for a wonderful book about a boy's courage, then I encourage you to read it. B_O_B P.S. There's also been a movie made about this book, but I think it's only in limited release, so I'll doubt I'll ever get to see it. Which might be OK, though, because the movie is usually never as good as the book.

I never watch Reality TV :wacko: It just doesn't appeal to me. So I guess I won't see the cute Red Head Hope he wins, though. B_O_B

I hope you feel better soon :wacko: I'll make you some chicken noodle soup. And then since I live far away I will eat it for you B_O_B

Hi B_O_B Oh wait. . . . this post is four pages long. If I made you read through four pages to see that tiny little blurb you'll probably hate me and not buy me anything shiny for my birthday. So I would like to extend my most sincere greetings and felicitations (oh wait this is a group of authors, so I'd better not use big words or I'll get one wrong and they'll think I'm dumm.) so in that case, a big "Hey there, hi there, ho there" to all the new members. I hope you have fun and post often. Some of the finest literary minds of our generation have written stories exploring the meaning of existance and the human condition, but those are not here. Instead you'll find entertaining, heart-warming, and (well I won't say it 'cause I'm too much of a gentleman, but it's another word that starts with an e) stories that were written by some hardworking and gifted writers who deserve a pat on the back for all of their hard work, but there's no pat on the back smiley, so we'll use this one :snork: because let's be honest when the hell else will it come up Anyway, I hope all the new members enjoy their time here (as I speak from my great experience of being a member for what two weeks? Oh well ) and that they post often and much. B_O_B Oh wait, I signed this one already. Oh well. This is a bonus signature for those who collect autographs. Even though it's a typed signature and not an actual autograph, but it has to be typed to get the underscores in because it looks silly when you write them. Bye.

Well you may have been a little early, but I'm a little late Anyway, I hope everyone here had a great New Years That they keep all of their resolutions (at least for a week ) and That they have nothing but happiness in 2004 B_O_B <--- Look devil worship!!

Happy birthday Paladin. What's your favourite kind of cake? B_O_B

Just keep pressing all the buttons until something happens If anything falls off the board I've got some super glue B_O_B

Hmm. . and by looks of things we've found the culprit --> B_O_B

Peephole. . . maybe, but to me this is always going to be the "violated ninja" smiley B_O_B

I can't believe how different Draco looks in the three movies In the first movie his got that round-faced mischievious imp look. In the secon movie he's got that pubescent bully look, and in the trailer for this one he's got that "smoldering teen idol" look. Talk about growing up in the public eye I guess. B_O_B

Hi Teddy, My name's B_O_B. I'm a megalomaniac Canadian military personage. I like long walks on the beach, making origami ducks and collecting shiny things. It's nice to meet you and I hope we can become good friends and go parasailing some day. B_O_B P.S. What the HELL is happening to this smiley? ==>
