- [deleted]
- 2 -- nm - CQ Jul 9, 11:25 1
  - but 4th of July is a pain in the ass for me anyway. same with memorial day and labor day. they all suck -- nm - CQ Jul 9, 11:26

- 3 -- nm - znufrii Jul 9, 11:09

- 2 -- nm - ceregon Jul 9, 11:08

  - To be fair, no writer would actually think to say, "With the 8th pick, I'm taking that New England WR, Ochocinco." -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 9, 11:14 2

I am currently uploading 16,919 songs to the Amazon Cloud. - David Jul 9, 10:57 14
- i just finished uploading our collection to Amazon as well. The iOS app is fantastic. - spamlet Jul 9, 11:04 3
  - Oh, and it's supposed to find duplicates unless they are already duplicated in your current system. -- nm - spamlet Jul 9, 11:05 2
    - This is my problem, yeah. I'm hoping they'll be easier to spot/clean up through Amazon. -- nm - David Jul 9, 11:09 1
      - Maybe. The search function is great but I'm not sure unless all the ID info was exactly duplicated it would be any better. -- nm - spamlet Jul 9, 11:18
- YMCA, Y.M.C.A., Y-M-C-A... -- nm - con_carne Jul 9, 11:03

    - You bought 16k+ songs from Amazon? -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 9, 11:06 2
      - No, you can upload all the mp3s you want. -- nm - David Jul 9, 11:10 1
        
        only if you have a paid plan. so it costs $20/year minimum -- nm - decline Jul 9, 11:11
    - (well sort of) -- nm - decline Jul 9, 11:05
Sometimes I wonder about my brother. - ty97 Jul 9, 10:50 4
- nmb ty - MDH Jul 9, 11:05 1
  - yep I did, and thanks! -- nm - ty97 Jul 9, 11:08
- This happens a lot with small books. I love that he sent the photo, though. -- nm - mara Jul 9, 10:59
- Like maybe he sleeps on...futons? -- nm - Max Jul 9, 10:52
At my Father-in-Law's this weekend, his sister said of me and my daughter, "She's your daughter? No way, you two could be brother and sister." - JaxSean Jul 9, 10:46
Does this closure mean Kate is in: more movies; less movies; better movies; or crappier movies? -- nm - Max Jul 9, 10:44 57
- I think she'll continue to be cinematically irrelevant. Never understood why she got any hype at all. - Jim Jul 9, 11:18 1
  - I agree. -- nm - Inigo Jul 9, 11:20
- She becomes the B in Don't Trust the B... -- nm - David Jul 9, 10:55 5
  - 15 minutes later, I get why you suggest this - prayformojo Jul 9, 11:02
  - Dirty Kate would be a breath of fresh air. -- nm - Max Jul 9, 10:59 3
    - Although I've never seen it, I used to have a small poster of Pieces of April on my bedroom wall - con_carne Jul 9, 11:02 2
      - you should watch it. -- nm - Andie Jul 9, 11:04 1
        
        agreed, its very good -- nm - Epiphany Jul 9, 11:22
- more and crappier. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 10:52 1
  - actually no, I think she goes back to TV. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 10:53
- Katie Holmes and Nicole Kidman in a film adaptation of All My Exes Live in Texas -- nm - con_carne Jul 9, 10:51
- [deleted]
- The Gift 2: Regifted! -- nm - prayformojo Jul 9, 10:46 3
  - stop posting and open the 100 year old whiskey -- nm - zork Jul 9, 10:48
  - that was some gift though..(oh those beautiful boobs) -- nm - Jovian Jul 9, 10:47 1
    - she has run a marathon since - so I'm doubting she still has them. ( much less weight) - Epiphany Jul 9, 11:12
- More and crappier movies. - Will Hunting Jul 9, 10:46 38
  - I disagree. oddly, I think she comes out of this smelling far better than she did prior to the marriage. - amanda Jul 9, 11:05 37
    - I almost think she goes Marla Maples on us - just quietly disappears - Epiphany Jul 9, 11:14 18
      - Has Elin Nordegren been seen since the Tiger divorce? -- nm - David Jul 9, 11:17 14
        
        Not really -- but she wasn't an american or anything really other than Ms. Tiger Woods. - Will Hunting Jul 9, 11:25
        
        but it's not like Elin really had a 'career' to go back to. -- nm - Andie Jul 9, 11:19 12
        
        Oh, the two aren't related. I was just thinking out loud about the last high profile divorce. -- nm - David Jul 9, 11:21 11
        
        Nicole went back to her career after the divorce. she did fine. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 11:23 10
        
        that was long ago. who -- nm - amanda Jul 9, 11:25 9
        
        who's more recent? could michelle & heath count? -- nm - amanda Jul 9, 11:25 8
        
        Sandie! -- nm - Max Jul 9, 11:29 1
        
        OOOOOH, GOOD ANSWER, GOOD ANSWERRR. "show me Sandy!" -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 9, 11:30
        
        Mel Gibson's insanity -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 9, 11:29
        
        Mel Gibson was kind of a divorce of himself. -- nm - Max Jul 9, 11:28
        
        never married. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 11:26 3
        
        but split up nevertheless. I mean, marriage is just paper, really -- though their split was less contentious and public. -- nm - amanda Jul 9, 11:27 2
        
        The only other big divorce I can think of is McCartney. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 11:27 1
        
        my mind immediately went to Demi and Ashton for some reason - but as an analogy, who's who? Ashton's career didn't suffer a jot despite the rumoured - Andie Jul 9, 11:30
      - well, she doesn't need the money. She surely got a big settlement. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 11:15 2
        
        it's not about money. it's about winning. -- nm - amanda Jul 9, 11:22
        
        $ 50 million? seems like a nice round number -- nm - Epiphany Jul 9, 11:19
    - I don't think she can just erase 2006-2012.5 as much as she wishes. - Will Hunting Jul 9, 11:13 10
      - I'm not invested in her, but my feeling is one of relief that she's out from under Tom's thumb. Maybe more respect for her will make me 2% more - Max Jul 9, 11:25
      - see, i think people will want to see her succeed. a further 'screw you' to Cruise and scientology. -- nm - Andie Jul 9, 11:15 8
        
        Maybe....I don't think I'm normal in this regard. Lots of women were interviewed for his next blushing bride...she went for it. - Will Hunting Jul 9, 11:27
        
        Yes. Totally. nm - Dignan Jul 9, 11:20
        
        agreeeance. but maybe this is just chicks -- nm - amanda Jul 9, 11:19 5
        
        I wonder if she has a future in chick flicks. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 11:24
        
        I think Scientology backlash is stronger than ever. nm - Dignan Jul 9, 11:23 2
        
        because of tom and katie and john, largely, do you think? -- nm - amanda Jul 9, 11:25 1
        
        Partly (mostly Tom), but also because I think the high profile anti-Scientology pieces have been adding up over the past few years. - Dignan Jul 9, 11:28
        
        and dignan. -- nm - amanda Jul 9, 11:21
    - she outwitted the scienos, which I love. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 11:12
    - ballsier and more self-confident, like, "I don't believe in this, so why the hell have I been agreeing to wear the veil?" -- nm - Max Jul 9, 11:11
    - i'm a little concerned about her next movie choice - she is about to start filming "Molly" about a single mother with a daughter, that she *wrote*. - Andie Jul 9, 11:11 3
      - as long as it isn't hyped at all, there's no failure to live up to expectations, she can get a pass on this one and get into full gear for the next. -- nm - Max Jul 9, 11:13 2
        
        She will guest on The B in Apartment 23. -- nm - Spawn Jul 9, 11:16
        
        i think this might have worked pre-Katie-making-headlines. i think now, there will be WAY more attention paid to this film than there would be at any - Andie Jul 9, 11:14
    - I think Tom knew that Team Katie would be roughy thirty times larger than Team Tom if things got ugly. nm - Dignan Jul 9, 11:07
- I think we will just start seeing her in movies now and again -- nm - Jovian Jul 9, 10:45
- or pornier? -- nm - Don Homer Jul 9, 10:45
BTW, amanda, I put beer in your storage. -- nm - ty97 Jul 9, 10:42 3
- oh, you just reminded me that I should buy a flashlight tonight at "shopping with steve." - amanda Jul 9, 11:04
- isn't that where we stored all that easter candy too ? -- nm - decline Jul 9, 10:45
- *raids amanda's storage space* -- nm - znufrii Jul 9, 10:43
Spectacularly preserved fossil suggests most dinosaurs were feathered... -- (link) - Don Homer Jul 9, 10:41 7
- Must have been the 250,000,080's (BC) nm - Dignan Jul 9, 11:01 2
  - (Fuck all y'all. This was quality.) nm - Dignan Jul 9, 11:12 1
    - Maybe if you pay Bery $3, he'll highlight your posts in yellow. -- nm - David Jul 9, 11:13
- that's magnificent. -- nm - loosilu Jul 9, 10:56
- *Steven Tyler, Mick Jagger, Cee Lo Green grazing in a swampy valley* -- nm - artist's rendering Jul 9, 10:48
- I'm more impressed with how preserved the details of the bones are -- nm - zork Jul 9, 10:46
- that's an amazing fossil. looks cartoonish fake -- nm - CQ Jul 9, 10:43
