Yeah, such a blockhead, lol.

Yeah we also watched the A&E Biography on Poe in High School which definitely made me appreciate him more. :) But even earlier than that, I think my first intro to Poe was from Charlie Brown and the gang, lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8JKG6L2hp8

Ack, you're right, I stand corrected. :) Yeah that's a very long and complicated history, lol.

Lol, well that's not too bad. I always hate it when people complain about getting ::gasp:: B's! ;) I'd recommend the movie 1776, it's pretty funny and educational. ;)

Well Independence Day is always July 4th because that's the date the Declaration of Independence was signed. :)

I think that's very good advice. It's definitely helped me in the past. :) My condolences, Miss Kermie, hang in there. : )

http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/tuberculosis/DS00372 It used to be much more frequent in the 1800s. Remember the musical Rent? Obviously that's about AIDS. But it's based on an opera called La Boheme, when artists were being plagued by Tuberculosis.

Yeah sadly the all too frequent culprit was Tuberculosis. It's been rumored that Poe might have been a carrier but I don't know if that's ever been confirmed.

Ha, well technically since many of the women in his life passed away.

I'm not a big poetry person either but I would recommend The Raven and Edgar Allen Poe in general, he's amazing. :)

Well Fairly Odd Parents started out really good, but then it just got so sexist and disturbing that I'd never let a daughter anywhere near it, lol. It's a shame, but audiences have learned to settle for less in recent years and accept inferior products as quality.

Sorry for the multiple quotes, but just wanted to also point out that my father has always been a fan of the movie, lol. :)

I never felt it was scary or even supposed to be particularly. I just find the characters very endearing and enjoy the story about growing up but not letting go of childhood fantasies.

Actually it was one of my favorite movies as a very small child, lol.

That's always the way. Take an oppressed minority and make them ten times better than the group to make up for past prejudices. And it's almost always a bad idea because audiences just end up resenting that character for being too perfect. As far as My Little Ponies, I did watch it all the time...

Just watched Big Bird in Japan again, that ending always makes me cry. :cry:

Huh, I hadn't thought of that, lol. Yeah but some of us would like to pretend that wasn't the case, hehe.

Actually I'm still trying to figure out if that was the TMS era. The entire movie had this '80s feel that was nice but completely out of place for The Muppet Show, lol.

Kk, I feel better now, thank u! ;)

Lol, no you're not, that made me laugh because it's so true. I am guilty of the "u" thing while texting and feel slightly bad every time, lol.
