Lucy’s current fave book is The Lorax by Dr. Seuss. She’s only made it through the entire book a couple times (we read it at bed time), but she asks for it pretty much every night. (Currently replacing Angelina Ballerina and Pinkalicious.)
With all the reboots in Hollywood, why doesn’t someone re-do this great story?

OK, so I am officially excited to hear that Choke will debut at Sundance Film Festival this year. After what seems like years of talk, the movie is ready and initial impression are good. “Here’s the first official images from the set.”:http://www.collider.com/entertainment/news/article.asp/aid/6580/tcid/1
Chuck Palahniuk is probably my favorite author, so you know I will be all over this once it comes out to a general release. Now all I need to know is: when is Survivor going to be turned into a movie? Now that would be awesome.

bq. Although those wizards, I’m very very suspicious about what they’re doing in their spare time.
- “Bill O’Reilly on the topic of gay wizards in the Harry Potter book series”:http://www.thinkprogress.org/2007/10/24/oreilly-dumbledore/.
p. Are you kidding me? He’s very, very suspicious of what a fictional character does in his spare time? Do ficitional characters in a book even have spare time?
p. The crazy thing is, I think he was playing devil’s advocate earlier in the interview, going against his asinine quote:
bq.. O’REILLY: Now, Dumbledore is not overtly gay in the book.
JORDAN: Absolutely not.
O’REILLY: So you wouldn’t know whether he was gay or not, right?
JORDAN: And in fact, you don’t know anything about the sex lives of any of the teachers.
p. I wonder if he was suspicious of the gay wizard before J.K. Rowling revealed her “gay agenda” to the masses? It sounds like he wasn’t, but given the fact that he’s now thinking about gay wizards (and what they do in their spare time), it makes me a little suspicious of what he’s doing in his free time.
