The only reason I would get HBO is if the adaptation of George RR Martin's A Game Of Thrones goes into production and gets aired. Otherwise I can live without it. ANd I can CERTAINLY live without this movie.

I'm going to watch it just because I know it will piss me off.  I do that sometimes. :-)

If you wanna watch something that'll just piss you off then go ahead and watch the view. At least you've only wasted half an hour as opposed to two. :-)

I'll say... that's like saying you'd prefer getting shot with a .22 instead of a .357. In the end, you'z still shot!

Well, with a little makeup you could disguise the wound, and you wouldn't have to worry about disguising an exit wound if there isn't one.

The role of "Crazy Liberal Bi*ch" on The Shrew's is now being played by Joy Behar.

The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years.  The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

You realize if your BP is tied to the Dodgers' success you will die, right?
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

I stayed up until they called florida on election night in 2000.  I went to CBS just so I could watch Dan Rather have to say it.

I see the storyline developing.  warren christopher was in charge for the dems, and he was an honorable man, who was trying to do the right thing.  james baker is a guttersnipe, and did what he had to do to win.
