This show is the reason we have tv. We didn't have it for years, and I would literally drive each Thursday to a friends house with a vhs tape and watch it with her while recording it for my husband. I would bring the tape home to him so he could watch it. After about three seasons of this, we...

I am nearly half way through this. I love it so far, so I hope the discussion keeps up. I am not certain how we planned on doing the Book Club aspect, but count me in when its time!

Where I live the "season" is snow and ice. I would kill myself in anything pointy, and though I love my Dansko's, there is not enough traction and they have caused me to slip more than once. I'm afraid the only thing I get to look forward to is my green Sorels:P I think that Stacy and...

Some girls in my youth group are absolutely addicted to this show!! They love it, and I have yet to see it myself. You may have just pushed me over here with this post. I think I will set up a Season Pass with Tivo and check it out. If nothing else, I will have something else to talk about...

I am kind of an odd mix. I have loved Norman Rockwell since I was a little girl. I love Maxfield Parish as well....and an extreme of his fantasy escape in my mind is Michael Parks. I actually have several of his prints framed and mounted nicely. No room for them on the walls right now, pre...

I want to add that the seriousness could have also had something to do with the era. This was, gulp, 34 years ago. I was also about 5 years old, and it was infected. This may account for the intensive care ward and being in the hospital a week. Some of the other replies here sound much more...

Oh my gosh! I feel like in a very stange way I have found a new sisterhood among you all!! Never in all my life have I met anyone who even knew what one of these things were, yet here you all are....my cyst sistahs! When I was very young, about 5 years old, I kept having this pain in...

I will add my thoughts on the Oprah shows. I did watch both of them today from my Tivo. While they made me cry, and made me sick all at the same time, I will have to say that I got a bit tired of Oprah herself saying over and over how "Americans need to apologise" "Americans owe these people"...

The story I read about Sean Penn was that he got a boat and forgot to put the plug in. It promptly started taking on water, but the kicker was that the boat was so loaded with his personal entourage there was really no room to rescue anyone...part of the entourage was his personal...

Hey Heather, the one I went to was in the Bay Area. Super huge and great line up....I just don't know if they are still doing it anymore. I think it was a Bill Graham sort of promotion and I don't even know if that is still up and running. I am so jealous of some of you! I would have...

I will check QVC occasionally, but I have to admit that I always try to watch during St.Patricks Day and Rose of Tralee. Talk about Irish Dork! I don't always buy something, but the last two I have. I got the nicest poncho 6 months ago, and last week I re-ordered a sweater that I tried to get...

Day on the Green!! Oakland CA, and it was Journey, Santana, Montrose Sammy Hagar! I loved it too. We went together as a bunch of girls and had a great time. The best fireworks I have ever seen came at the end of the show and it was the first time Journey did Open Arms publicly. At least that...

I am glued to Fox news and it is killing me! I just can't imagine what it is like for people where you are. My heart is definitely with you. As far as gas goes, I guess I don't quite understand what you mean. Are you saying not to top up in the South, or all over. I kind of have to where...

Just an update... I finally was able to get the book (thanks Nicole;) ) and things are going really well. I think I discovered that my reaction was not the norm and you all were so great with sharing your experiences and suggestions that it was more encouraging than you know. I don't know...

I can't even remember what we called ourselves....Brains and Brawn or something along those lines. I am just curious how the summer has gone for you all in that area. I was attempting the Faulkner set with Oprah, but got a bit sidetracked. I made it through As I Lay Dying and 1/2 way...

My husband and I did City Hall so there was no actual wedding when we got married. I had long envisioned a fun family ceremony for our 20th (this year) but he is in school so that will not happen...Shooting for the 25th! My dream 'wedding' is for us to backpack from Tahoe to Yosemite and...

Exactly what Amy said! You can modify and do a lot of stuff on the BOSU (which I love by the way;) ) but it is way too wobbly for much of Cathe's routines. Not to mention it is bigger around at the base than you would imagine. You really have to be careful with placement of your feet. I...

On my mom's side there is supposed to be a connection to the Wright Brothers, and with my husbands family the story is they are directly decended from Jedediah Smith. Though he had no children, it was a brother of his that the connection comes through. The fun one is from highschool. One of...

With the big 4-0 coming up in November, I am being asked by my husband what I would like for my birthday. I have been giving it a lot of thought and I think I really want a treadmill. The problem is that all the reviews I have read scare me. I went through Consumer Reports and they show a lot...

The news footage is heartbreaking!! I normally think they go to the worst hit areas of a disaster and just harp on it so much that you think the world is ending, but in this situation it seems to be so consistantly widespread and not an exageration at all. So very sad, and my prayers are with...
