Another Harry Potter book done!

Book 5:
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix:

This was the first the first Potter book I read that I have not seen the movie first. Any book is best read before a movie.
I rate this book better than the previous ones. It really kept my attention. The story fills in quit nicely at the end of this one. That being said it also leaves you a bit sad.
Neville even gets a bigger part, which is cool.





Some favorite quotes from the ending.

When Dumbeldore is talking to Harry about the treatment of house elves, Kreatcher in particular. He explains how, "Indifference & neglect often do more damage than outright dislike"

Harry has a moment where he can't decide weather he wants to be with people or not. Whenever he was with people he wants nothing but to get away from them. When he's alone he wants company. How many of you have felt that way most days? :)

Now the funny one! They are in the train on the way home & everyone is occupied with something.
"Neville was stroking his Mimbulus mimbletonia, which had grown a great deal over the year& now made odd crooning noises when touched."

Tonight's movie was the best ever!

Reign Over Me:

Adam Sandler pulled this serious roll off perfectly. It is a must see! The whole cast made this movie work.
This movie will make you cry. It will make you think. How far would you go for a friend in need? How far out of your way? How much could you put up with & for how long?
It makes you think about other people & that everyone has a story. Some of those stories are too painful to bear.
The best movie with a 9/11 theme that I've seen. It truly speaks straight from the hearts of those left behind.

I figured out the name of the Green Sesame street character

As you all know my dogs have had names such as Elmo, & now Zoie. This summer I saw a bit of Sesame street I think it was in channel surfing or whatever. I saw Zoe's friend, a little green monster. I could never find out what here name was.
Today I figured it out. (Sesame Street live is in town:)) Her name is Rosita!

First HD movie

King Kong the 2005 remake. I have seen this movie before & I had forgotten how looong it was. I love Kong as a kid & I still do. Yes It still makes me cry!

Best Quote Was when Mr Denham was first getting Ms. Darrow to join him. They were in the restaurant.
.
Carl Denham: Ann, I'm telling you - you're perfect. Look at you. You're the saddest girl I've ever met. You're gonna make them weep, Ann. You're gonna break their hearts.
Ann Darrow: See, that's where you're wrong, Mr. Denham. I make people laugh, that's what I do. Good luck with your picture.

(He goes on into the love story a bit)

Ann Darrow: Good things never last Mr. Denham.

I noticed more things in the HD movie like little flying bugs & plants. More back ground stuff. I'm not sure if that was because I was looking for the "better quality of HD" Or that was the HD LOL!

Great White stalks ocean canoeist

Last updated at 00:19am on 3rd January 2008

Alone in his tiny plastic sea kayak, marine biologist Trey Snow had hoped to stealthily track a great white shark. But he had the shock of his life when he spotted a giant fin and realised it was he who was being stalked - by surely one of the most feared killers in the world.

The magnificent creature initially dived to the seabed, inspecting the kayak from below, before rising menacingly to the surface. Luckily for Trey, the 13ft-long shark was more inquisitive than hungry.

Trey was just one of a team of scientists hoping to discover why a large group of great whites, which travel off southern Africa's tip during the summer, regularly swim so close to the beaches.

They decided to venture into the deep blue in the quietest and most unobtrusive vessel they could think of - a bright yellow sea kayak. Amazingly the sharks carried on as normal, giving the scientists a unique insight into their lives.

They observed that the intrepid animals come inshore to interact socially with others of their species - possibly using the opportunity to mate and give birth - and can often be spotted following, or swimming circles around, one another, for extended periods of time.

This incredible picture was taken by wildlife photographer Thomas Peschak - who had to tie himself to the high bridge of a nearby vessel and lean precariously over the ocean before he could get his shot.

The holy grail of shark research and marine wildlife photography is to see great whites mating and giving birth. It is a task which is extremely difficult and dangerous, if not impossible, and even Thomas Peschak has not achieved it yet. And Trey Snow might be thinking he has already got as close to a great white as he wants to ...
