[havinfun50]

I'd suggest getting yourself a stretching partner, just to keep an eye on you

grins and leaves a hug for a Fish

If Fish won't stretch with you... [gulp]... I will.

 

[Britwitch]

*hugs back*

Thank you, though I'm not sure watching an old dinosaur Fish go through his (slow) paces is all that exciting

Oh, I'm quite sure it would be.

smiles

It'd be you I'd be watching, after all.
You're eminently exciting. And interesting... And intelligent... And eloquent...

stills more than a peck, but still on the cheek.
you always cook in my book... some times you make it to the kitchen.

Oh Raven, you and your compliments...

blushes shyly

Thanks, handsome. Hope you're having a good day.

 

[Raven_Timothy]

made you smile and blush(bonus) and I got my kiss so... things are looking up

You did.

grins and hugs

You usually do too.

 

[Raven_Timothy]

You did.

grins and hugs

You usually do too.

and the fact that I can bring some small kindness to my friends is a blessing for me. especially when I get hugs and pretty cheek shades out of the deal.

Hmmm - the exchange between Brit and Raven get's fun thinking... There is a Blueberry Swirl Crumb Cake mix in the pantry... I think it might be time for it to meet the oven!

 

[thestruggle]

Tired of winter. I just want to plant some flowers and laze around my yard. Urrrrgh.

hugs

I sympathise. We had gotten rid of almost all our snow and then....snowstorm all day Friday.

Good for snowmen building though.

grins

Aw, the worst! At least some snowmen were gotten out of it. Here it's no snow, just cold and windy. The sun's shining, too, which manages to present a "maybe you can go for a walk!" falsehood.

 

[fr33ks33k]

Oh, so that's why you get credit cards...so people know you exist and will lend you money....



.......fuck.

winks

That would be most distracting!

Not saying it wouldn't be nice though....*shrugs*

 

[Britwitch]

That would be most distracting!

Not saying it wouldn't be nice though....*shrugs*

I'd try to keep my distraction to a minimum

winks

And it wouldn't be nice. It'd be very nice.

 

[Fish_Tales]

Bloody hell.

I'm already distracted and you're not even trying!

Damn you, Brit....damn you

 

[Britwitch]

Bloody hell.

Damn you, Brit....damn you

smiles mischievously

It would appear my focus is poor at times

 

[Britwitch]

Not at all.

kisses his cheek with a wink

I think I might know how to shift said focus a little...that's all.

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

Alright. Let's see about this 'writing' thing I hear so much about.

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

Noah looks an awful lot like LOTR.

People are upset about the historical accuracy of the Noah movie.



I'm gonna say that again.



People are upset about the historical accuracy of the Noah movie.

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

Actually, they have at least one legitimate complaint. Obviously, they are referring to the accuracy of the movie to the story (which is almost as bad since the Noah story isn't exactly hundreds of pages in the Bible, but that's another thing...). One of the big complaints is that, in the movie, Noah doesn't have a personal relationship with God. That's a pretty big deal. For that to be absent, for Noah and God's relationship to be no different than God and anyone else, that's huge. At least from a storytelling perspective. That's like Moses and God never talking, or Aragorn not being the heir of Isildur.

I don't really see that as legitimate, either.

About the only real complaint I could see is that Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson, Nick Nolte, Anthony Hopkins, and Ray Winstone are all the wrong race for that story, in that time, in that place.

But anything else, they're taking artistic license with a story that's already been artistic licensed the fuck out of to begin with. You can't build a wooden ship that big and have it float, there's never been a worldwide flood, humanity has never experienced a bottleneck that small, and you obviously cannot fit all the animals of the world on one boat. And certainly not without a lot of them killing a lot of the others.
