Minty, I've just read your ENTIRE blog trying to decode all your anonymizing (and yes, I hate verbing nouns too). Good stuff. :)

I am one of the teeming hordes who found your site through Suburban Bliss. I like reading people's "about" pages, too, and I like your comments here about the community aspect of blogging. I can say for sure that blogging has changed my life and enlarged my social circle in both the "real" and the online worlds. I encourage others to blog all the time too. Blog on, blogger!

I saw Garp the movie and liked it, and then read Garp the book and was blown away. The book has so many more layers than the movie.

There are more Wrinkle in Time books? Wow, I had no idea. I dunno, I might be disillusioned now; I thought the trilogy was so perfect. But I might have to read them just to complete myself.

I did really like Lost in Translation also (I have a review of it on this site). I never saw Metropolitan.

I love Matt Foley and Celebrity Jeopardy!! We still watch Saturday Night Live even though more times than not it falls flat. Plus, what else do we have to do on a Saturday Night.

I also love Garp, (even the movie) and A Prayer for Owen Meany (not the movie though).

I read the L'Engle books to my kids over a couple of summers during long car trips. A Wrinkle in Time was my favortie book in 5th grade. There are actually like 7 books in the series now. The later ones however were weaker.

Also agree with your movie choices, add Lost In Translation and Metropolitan.

I've updated my "About" page, for those of you who might be curious.
