    I'm Here - indiehipstercuteness/10 Latest Spike Jonze release just made it into my Top 5 of 2010. So much win packed into 30 minutes that I was amazed. Cool concept, great music. It's cute. It's hipster. It's indie. And I'm a hopeless romantic. Two robots in love end up evoking more emotion...

    Re: Iron Maiden "Head-to-Head" Song Tournament (Round 6: Group A) Of course not! :P We're still working with 18 clusters of 8 songs each. I wasn't kidding when I said this will take a while. Think of this as the Forum Games version of the "Let's try and get 100,000 replies to this post"...

    Just started reading True Grit and I'm liking the way that it's got a lot of character. I don't know if I described that well, but what I mean is that I'm just three chapters in and the characters that have been introduced so far are very fleshed out. The witty writing and subtle humor is also...

    Smokers?

    I tried smoking when I was a kid (early teens) but never really liked it, so I've never smoked since. It seems to be a great social tool along with drinking but I find it nasty, so I'll pass on that and stick with the beer. I generally dislike anything that has to do with smoking and try to...
