This site, Coincidence Design, cracks me up. Would you pay $78,000 to *meet* someone? Would it be worth it? What if they absolutely hated you? This reminds me of the person that was trying to get $30,000 for his feedback on Chicken Nuggets (I think it was a Jack in the Box commercial) and he said “It just takes one…” Yeah, I would like to meet the one person that pays $78,000 for a “Coincidence”.

Meryl’s rendition of Let it Snow has me laughing so hard I am about to cry! Meryl! That’s CLASSIC!
We are about to have our Christmas party and our Secret Santa gift exchange, the kids are so excited because we got the Temecula bounce house rentals from https://jumpersnrentals.com/temecula/, but Kymberlie, who ROCKS, has already given me Moulin Rouge! Whoo hoo! And it’s a 2 DVD set, with tons of extras … you know, this laptop is a DVD player, I could just start to watch it now! I will definitely be watching it tonight. I am so excited!
I went shopping last night to pick up a DVD at the last minute for my boss (I had to find out what he needed first) and saw that Target is selling all sorts of goodies from Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer. They have a bobblehead doll of Hermey, the elf that wants to be a dentist. I took it up to the register to find out the price, and the guy at the register asked me what it was! He didn’t know who Hermey the elf was!!! What sort of sheltered life did you lead if you have no idea who Hermey is? Sure, you might not know his name, but by the time you are 17 you should recognize him! Kids these days … I swear. At least he wasn’t rude like the other sales people I have encountered lately!
I have never been a big fan of Nicole Kidman. That was until I saw Moulin Rouge. She was amazing in that movie. The movie itself was amazing. I can’t wait to watch it again, it was so good! And I’m not alone in that thought – she received TWO best actress nominations – one for Moulin Rouge, and one for The Others! I haven’t seen The Others yet – I wanted to but never made it to the theater while it was out. Moulin Rouge was also nominated for Best Musical/Comedy, and Ewan McGregor is up for best actor. It’s out on video now, so if you haven’t seen it – pick up the video or DVD!
The New York Times has set up a cool section on their site for The Tolkien Archives. Lots of articles and information, old reviews and so forth. Fascinating.
