For those that care: ERC Weekend Estimates: $19M YES/-18.86, $15.5M 7PNDS/-23.76, $13M DESPEREAUX/-7.58 -- (link) - Cuzzin Toddnog Dec 20, 08:44 12
- I'm surprised YESMN did that poorly. Really surprised. -- nm - TFox Dec 20, 09:34 2
  - the trailers look like a Liar Lair update, but less funny -- nm - black peter Dec 20, 09:42 1
    - Liar Lair sounds like a reality show. -- nm - Danonezer Scrooge Dec 20, 10:07
- For some reason I had Despereaux long. The other 2 are shorts, though. - JaxSean Dec 20, 09:06 5

      - Exactly..."when did WSMIT ever open below $XX?" It's hard to go against that :( -- nm - NutMeg Dec 20, 09:54 2

- sweet -- nm - Gwaahjo Dec 20, 08:49
- hurry up, CX - pigby Dec 20, 08:46 1

  - He is the weak link. Everyone is great. The show continues to be more and more interesting (spoilers) - Mel Profit Dec 20, 08:53 6

  - So he's a douche in real life, too? (spoils) - Mop Dec 20, 08:45 1

Opinions, please: I am still considering buying my friend a mother/child necklace for Christmas. I found this variation and thought this might be - kelly Dec 20, 07:54 12
- Purchased - I got the last one, too. Thanks. (I actually didn't think you guys would like it.) -- nm - kelly Dec 20, 08:18 3

- I like. -- nm - loosilu Dec 20, 08:09
- Nice! It's cute, but not too far out of the box. Should make a great gift. -- nm - Jelly Dec 20, 08:04
- I like it a lot. -- nm - TFox Dec 20, 08:02
- It's cute, do you think she'd wear it? -- nm - krusty Dec 20, 08:02 3
  - I'm not sure, but I think so. I think that's more up her alley than the regular sterling silver/gold ones. -- nm - kelly Dec 20, 08:20 2
    - I like it more than the common ones I've seen. It's unique. -- nm - krusty Dec 20, 08:22 1
      - She's in her early 20s, so I am guessing that this version would appeal to her more than the more traditional ones. - kelly Dec 20, 08:31

  - No, he means ABBond, who was before your time. -- nm - nubby Dec 20, 07:36 3
    - Don't know if you saw, but AB stopped by here last Sunday...but didn't stay long :( -- nm - NutMeg Dec 20, 08:15 1
      - That's why I was wondering if it was him, since I think that's the day Fleed's "Friends you may know" popped up on FB.. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 20, 08:17
    - ohhhh ok -- nm - Gwaahjo Dec 20, 07:36

  - what does it say that I totally believed this was Stacy? -- nm - loosilu Dec 20, 08:40
- I had one last night from the Australian friends I took to Pippy's wedding. I'd been feeling guilty 'cause I hadn't - NutMeg Dec 20, 08:23

    - I don't condone what happened AT ALL, but let me clarify things a little for you. It was a 68 year old grandmother, it was Sarah Brightman - CrankYanker Dec 20, 07:58 4
      - honestly, this changes nothing for me. -- nm - Morrisey Dec 20, 08:07 3
        
        and I don't have a problem with that. I probably would have done what Wiggum described if I had been waiting in the ER. - CrankYanker Dec 20, 08:26 2
        
        she wasn't drunk, everything else applies. -- nm - loosilu Dec 20, 08:41 1
        
        absolutely what I said. -- nm - CrankYanker Dec 20, 09:30
