1. Have you ever read a book that you didn't finish and why?

A Seperate Peace by John Knowles. Worst book ever. Just awful. Boring, flat, pretentious, wretched book! Oh how I hated it. I have also thrown The Sound & The Fury by Faulkner across the room because it was just unreadable. It made no sense! I would read pages and pages over to figure out what I was missing. Dialect can be interesting, or it can make a story impossible.

2. Name a movie that you really dislike/hate and why.

I absolutely loathe The Piano Teacher. It had moments where it seemed like it might end up brilliant, but it left such an ugly feeling in my mind. It made my brain hurt trying to figure out what it was really about.

3. What is the biggest change in your life since you've gotten married?

Learning to include another person in the decision making. I'm so used to handling everything myself that sometimes it is strange to realize I don't have to do it all. Even when I was dating people, I was very protective of my finances and such. So now I have adjust to including Alan. Luckily, it hasn't been too hard and it works out.

4. What was your favorite thing about the Czech Republic?

Walking around in old, beautiful places and eating ice cream. Seriously. It made me so happy to do that. I love how small villages and the countryside so often look like a fairy tale setting.

5. Let's say someone gave you a million dollars. What would you do with it?

Set up a home in NYC and go to grad school, and put Alan into a university or cooking school. I'd like to go to school and only have to work part time. Oh, anbd buy a huge ridiculous television for video games.

About The Piano Teacher: Yeah. Me, too.

Yeah. I mean, dude! So so so freaking disturbing. ESpecially the end. What the hell was that?!?

[lawnrrd]

Exactly! I'm sitting there, thinking, "OK, that was freaky, where's this going?" And again and again, throughout the movie, the same thing. And then we get to the end, and I almost hear the voice of Krusty the Clown in my head exclaiming, "What the hell was that?!"

I saw the R-rated version, and thought that maybe they cut out some of the plot in it. There's no other way to justify a movie that bad.

I saw it at the Dobie with Gene, and even though we're good friends sitting next to him during that cutting scene was the most awful thing ever.

That was one of the most awfulest movies ever in the history of the world. And I even waited to rent it, so I wouldn't be outraged about losing $ if it sucked. Oh, how wrong I was.

I have yet to meet a single person who enjoyed this film.
