I've had choices since the day I was born. There were voices that told me right from wrong since the day I was born. If I had listened I wouldn't be here today, living and dying with the choice I have made.

I just saw Crazy Stupid Love and really enjoyed it. It's probably my favorite movie I've seen this year. Everybody here laughed at me when I said that.

I love Tom Hanks. Green Mile, Saving Private Ryan, Forrest Gump.

I recently watched We Were Soldiers and that movie was ****ing intense.

I love Superbad. My roommate is the identical twin of Michael Cera. Jonah Hill is hilarious and I can't wait to go see The Sitter on the 6th.

Crazy Stupid Love is an excellent movie. The guys making fun of you probably never saw it. It was poignant, funny and smart.

I like older Tom Hanks. Would you believe I've never watched The Green Mile all the way through?

Of all the slacker/stoner comedies, I was least impressed with Superbad. Normally, those guys crack me up but I didn't find it very funny. Maybe I was in a bad mood that day but I don't think so.

Easily in the Top 5 would be Casino Royale with Daniel Craig. It's incredibly well-written, sarcastic, funny, the cinematography is gorgeous (especially at the beginning during the crane fight scene) and full of action. I could watch it again and again and again...and I have. The torture scene hurts me and I don't even have the same anatomy you guys do. I've heard it's agonizing to watch.

Another Top 5 is The Dark Knight. The Batman movies before Nolan took over were cheesy, but he really raised the bar with Batman Begins. I absolutely loved both. I also really liked Inception.

So she was in a loving environment before. That's super important. Does she appear to be well behaved? I have a friend who adopted a dog that had been mistreated and he has destroyed her home. During a storm, he literally jumped through a window. The glass. She and her husband are so kind hearted they can't get rid of her. She has been to therapy, is on meds, etc.

Does she like to be petted and loved?

Yeah, she is pretty well behaved, just a lot of energy. The energy is a good thing as it will encourage me to get off my butt and run with her. But I just need to keep her occupied so that her energy doesn't turn into destruction.


She loves to be petted! I think girl dogs love affection and to be praised. My old dog Addy was the same way, just loved to hop in your lap and beg for a belly rub.

My only fear with her is noise. I know Beagles love to howl and bark, which may cause problems since I live in an apartment, but so far not a peep from her. She is a mix so maybe she has some quiet dog in her too.

I planned to take her out for another walk now that I finished up my work but, I think she may already be tuckered out:

In the Top 10 would definitely be Ocean's 11. Funny, sarcastic and slick.

Jonah Hill in Forgetting Sarah Marshall helped make that one of the funniest movies, ever.

Anchorman is a classic that I can quote quite well. Lurve it lots.

Grizz, I hope you are alright. We are here for ya buddy, and we are always have a sympathetic ear.

You are a great asset to the Zone, and your presence will be greatly missed. We will be waiting with great interest for your return.

Should I flirt with the ladies of the Zone in your stead?

You're one of them, eh?

I've just never been a batman fan.

Life As We Know It is another sort of girly movie I really like.

The Green Mile is a must. I love it. I like all types of movies. I saw Crash recently and it was great, was mentally exhausting somehow.

I watched The Village and that was wild.

I like Never Back Down, it gets my adrenaline going so much. It can be cheesy, though.

12 angry men. The last three Harry Potters. Shawshank Redemption.

AWWWWWW!!!!! She's already asleep with her Daddy! She feels safe.

I have had girl dogs in the past but both mine now are little boys. They are awfully spoiled and love to flop on their back for belly rubs.

I hope she doesn't bark too much and get you in trouble. I lived in an apartment once near a barking dog, but I never called the managers because it would usually only last a short time. Hopefully your neighbors will be as cool.

I've seem crazy stupid love & I'm laughing at him. :) It was okay.

The torture scene in bond has one of my favorite lines - youre scratching my balls.

I loved the Ocean's series.

I hate Will Ferrel, so anything he is in, I can't enjoy.

I saw The Change-Up this summer and it was awesomely hilarious. Epic tits, too.

Well I was very deliberate in picking my apartment location. My unit has to have no one above it or below it, further I wanted to have the living room not sharing a wall with any other unit. I requested this so that I could play videogames as loud as I like. I have enjoyed games and music at all hours of the night and day at high volumes, with no complaints.


Hopefully my planning will also work with dog barking.

Newt and TVG. Who was your favorite Bond?


For me it was Brosnan.

He just fit the role really well for me and I thought he was one of the cooler ones.

Honestly, have you watched the Nolan Batman films? Batman Begins has awesome actors...Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Ken Watanabe and of course Christian Bale, who I could watch read the phone book.

Never watched anything Batman related :)

Just never been into superheroes. That's weird because I am in a very small minority.

Craig's acting in that scene is awesome. I also love when he comes back in after about dying, looks at a surprised Le Chiffre and says "Sorry, that last hand about killed me."

So freakin' cool!

Anchorman is fan-tastic. You are missing out, majorly.

I liked Brosnan as the cool, suave Bond. Up until Craig, he was my favorite. However, I loved the grittier, more Bourne-esque turn played by Daniel Craig. Casino Royale is my favorite Bond film. I'm excited about the next one!
