I've thought so pretty much all my life, but getting to "talk" to you since I've been on this board, it's been reinforced. I know you're not fishing for compliments; it's freely given. :-)
I hope that other reds follow suit and provide us with bios. I mean, if we're willing to babble about who we are, when most likely no one much cares, then they, who we who are not famous wish to know more about, should do the same... yes? No?

If it's the onset of something, then I've got it too, and I'm only 27. For some reason, my brain thinks "g" and writes/types "d", and vice versa. I'm not dyslexic in any other way. It's bizarre.

I'd be lying if I said I weren't leery of JG. But I'd also be lying if I said I wasn't going to go see it, just because of my own predispositions regarding J-Lo. It's a Kevin Smith film, thus, I will see it. And I will endeavor not to let my preconceptions skew my opinion. My major problem with it is that she's not, in fact, from NJ... I think I can get past that.
