No, I watched it a decade or so ago.

TPBM has seen A Clockwork Orange on the Silver Screen.

Nope, not on any screen. And I have to say that this one actually kind of eludes me, a lot of stuff I get a fairly solid grasp on without ever seeing.
tpbm has some suggestions as to what I should see with my movie gift card.

I don't know about you, but I'm really into documentaries. and I like chick flicks. I know that wasn't very helpful fishy, but I hope you find something you really like to watch.

tpbm prefers big dogs to ankle biters.

I like friendly dogs. little ones that like to be held are sweet. big ones are nice and warm for a big hug.

tpbm is going to see the hobbit this weekend.

I love popsicles. I used to get an 18 pack and eat them 6 at a time. Eskimo Pies are OK.

I haven't seen Downton Abbey, but I've heard much praise.

TPBM cried and cried while watching Tarantino's latest flick. (I sure as hell did.)

When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to sleep.

I haven't seen it yet, but I will! I love Tarantino . . . (and Downton Abbey, for that matter, although I'm not up to the third season yet).

The person below me likes Westerns.

well, I haven't gotten to the poetry part (thank gawddess), but I am straddling a (proposed)dual camp line,
fortunately, there's lots of time to let the dust settle (or not!)

Au contraire. My great Aunt gave me my first typewriter as a little girl (an old Royal, early 60's vintage) and I loved that massive grey monster. Then in college I bought a 1950's Olympia typewriter, dark green, pretty and pristine, for $12 in a thrift shop. (Grey metal carrying case.) That typewriter is sitting in my living room right now. :)

The person below me prefers a desktop to a laptop.

Bed head OR couch head. But not on me. :lol:

I'll do the wash thing, but have no need for a comb (and/or comb over)

I always used it as a fixative to keep charcoal sketches and pastel drawings from smearing.

TPBM has been thinking of starting a cult.
