Thanks guys

Blaze, because I'm having a little trouble facing tomorrow at the moment to be honest - let alone planning for the future. I'll get there. I just have some adjusting to do.

Maybe one day.

Thanks for your support everyone - to answer FireAza's inquiry, I'm middle of the statistical norm at 37 for MS. With the benefit of hindsight, I identified an episode about 4 years ago which was the precursor. My grandmother had MS - died from complications at 59 - so I imagine it's more a heredita...

Rants on not Bill Gates

Sorry...need some space to bitch a little. It's this whole MS (that's Multiple Sclerosis - not the Microsoft!) thing. I'm disappointed at my age - 37 - to find my career in graphic design is pretty much over, my career in marketing is pretty much over and I don't even know what I'm going to do with ...

I like those plot choices. It's one of the things that makes Joss Whedon so damn good. He's not afraid of hard calls. It means when you're watching, anything is possible, and that adds real tension.

You're constantly thinking..."He wouldn't dare!"...and sometimes he does!

Ooooo....ooo.. let me have a go! Cruise finally managed to knock someone up. It seems the only problem previously was sleeping with people taller than him (well, most are!). He just had to find a short chick so his stumpy little swimmers could go the distance! All together now...sing it...the AC/DC ...

Superpowers?

I'll start the list:

Able to spend through family fortunes faster than Paris Hilton
Can leap long queues into private schools with a single bound
Can score hot Hollywood chicks quicker than Tom Cruise

As Executive Producer (and I heard the job is shared with his partner Fran Walsh) he will have to be allowed some creative control. He wouldn't agree to be a part of it if he has no control over how bad it is. Betcha he picks fellow kiwi Andrew Adamson (Shrek, Shrek 2, Toys, upcoming Lion, Witch and...

'Jewish' can, as Deacon points out, refer to a bloodline or something religious - often both together. The question is...is 'yom kipur' a religious holiday or a 'bloodline' holiday.
