i've been slacking on my movie-watching the past couple of weeks since i've been concentrating more on writing and other projects. i've had the same DVDs from Netflix for the past month or so, when i used to turn them over in 24 hours and get the next one the very next day.

ummm... probably doesn't mean anything in my case. i was just randomly pulling out movies i remembered liking a lot.

but then again, i don't think it's unfair to say that i AM somewhat partial to comedy

i've seen it in its entirety once. seen it in bits and pieces on maybe 20 other occasions.

>When did you work in the video store? <--not antagonistic

LOL last time i worked in a video store was in Blockbuster, when i first came to the States about 12 years ago.

after that, i switched to record stores where i stayed through most of the 1990s
