"One summer morning at sunrise a long time ago
I met a little girl with a book under her arm.
I asked her why she was out so early and
she answered that there were too many books and
far too little time. And there she was absolutely right."

Amazing and so true.

Female Heroines Are Awesome Too

This movie is going to be fun, and we need more with strong, female characters who lead the charge.  To those who predicted thatThe Hunger Gameswould not make money because Katniss is a female, I hope you crawl back into the hole from which you came.

Interesting how science can explain an event long thought generated by pure human error.  How could you not see an iceberg???

Love this!

PBS does Dickens

It is always the endeavor of PBS to make great novels into mediocre or okay specials.  I hope that this review is not nearly as accurate as it sounds, but I also have been burned by PBS’ Masterpiece Theatre before.  I loveGreat Expectationsand Dickens, meaning that I will watch this production either way, but here’s to hoping that it is three hours not wasted.

Wow, check out that dress!  This movie looks pretty fun, if you ask me.  At least the costumes will be amazing!
