Movie Page
By the way, if you're not aware of it, use IMDb [http://www.imdb.com/] to get
information about movies. I have found it reliable, and its organizers have a
great knack for culling the best quotes from films.

Celling the Family Short
> The round-the-clock availability that cell phones and pagers have brought to
people's lives may be taking a toll on family life, a new study suggests.
> The study, which followed more than 1,300 adults over 2 years, found that those

Brews I Hope No One Will Use
There must be a special circle in Dante's hell for folks like this:
> At the suggestion of a fifth-grader, Sen. Bill Alter has entered a bill that
would ban the sale of beer at temperatures lower than 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The
idea is to lower the
Ice the Babies
Further taking control of the uncontrollable and thereby further screwing
everything up:

Book of Daniel
I just figured NBC's Book of Daniel was offensive to all Christians, but

We'll see if Drudge is right. He's not a traditional journalist, but he often
outscoops others because he's more of a loose cannon:

The Weekend Eudemon
Actually, this is more of a PSA than a Weekend Eudemon. A tight writing deadline
and the demands of my law practice--not to mention the four five little kids
