Also going on a day when Smack has a birfday party to go to . . . saving the price of an admission.

He's not that interested in the movie anyway . . . but if he didn't have something else to do, he would have gone . . . just for the overpriced box of candy.

[flourgirl]

Good deal. But doesn't someone feel left out....even tho' there's a trade off?

[Darn210]

There's always so much in books that can't be portrayed in a movie.

Exactly the point that I want my daughter to learn.

[flourgirl]

Doesn't have a point of view

knows not where he's going to'

Isn't he a bit like you

and me

Whenever I've read the book and then see the movie I always prefer the book. The movie seems like a letdown somehow.....

Does your daughter like to read? I've always loved reading....since about the age of 10 or so.

I'll try and do a few more later . . . there must be an easier way than the approach I was taking.

After I joined, I went back to page one and read the whole blessed thing. Of course, it was only 327 pages long at the time. Hot topics were Bev turning 40, and Amanda the newlywed.

I remember that! I could not believe that you actually did that, POeter...i STILL can't!! And I remember how thrilled we were that you were here, at last. . . .

Phlood kontrol is a paanne!

My son grew up in a house phull of books. The only thing he was interested in reading was magazines dealing with the games. He and his pals had whole life histories memorized about imaginary characters! I was glad he found SOMETHING to interest him enought to read, anyway

[jerseyangel]

I'm terrible at tracking down old posts.

theresa . . . you'll have to ask Emily about the phart-charting . . . tis her thing . . . what wif using flow charts and such to help explain . . .

This I will elaborate on fully, when we hit page 1800. . . . . . .it is quite an involved practice, and requires a long post.. . . . . . . .

Me older son was always an avid reader. He read all the available John Grissom books whilst still in middle school.

Phart-charting kinda put us on the map when word leaked out to some on the general board that "those people" counted their farts".

Does your daughter like to read? I've always loved reading....since about the age of 10 or so.

Does she!!!!! Totally self-taught. Would listen in on the baby monitor and she would be "reciting" the book we had just read almost word for word. She would sleep with books instead of stuffed-animals. One night she was crying on the monitor and when I went to check on her, she was upset because she was trying to use books for covers and they weren't staying where she put them.

[flourgirl]

TWO-THIRDS OF THE WAY THERE!!!!

This last third seems to be a bit harder going

My sister has gone into the hospital with a kidney stone....I will be doing an unexpected shift there this afternoon . .. . .

Gotta get as many posts in now as possible. . . . . . . . .

[flourgirl]

my son slept with 45rpm records!

Still giggling over phart charting!

Put us on the map . . . . . . gah!!!! I think they always knew we were here . . . they were just hoping we would go away.
