OK, I will be sure to check them out, too, tonight. I wait for your reply, Mr. Maximilianus...some people are worth waiting for; especially if they make you laugh...:lol: I have some stuff to attend to today, which is vitally important anyway. Get some sleep kiddo! :angel: Keyboards do not make good pillows!:eek2:

Yes, indeed those pieces of art by Annamariah are wonderfully rendered. I think her style is reminescent of Ingres work...hope I spelled that correctly. I love his work and have a book of his portrait drawings...simply stunning and lovely imagery.

I really don't now about Crawler, but I'll see what I can find :nod: Probably the screensaver is incompatible with your Vista. There are programs that were written for XP but somehow Vista can't run them properly, so I don't really think it has to do with your browser but more with the Operating System.

The-made-for-TV film, preceeding the documentary, was fairly good, but dated; but this b/w documentary is truly intriguing. What prompted all this was my recent viewing of East of Eden. It was incredible; ever see the film? I will get to writing them up next week. I am still not caught up on some very important email replies, which have to come first.

I found three "East of Eden" productions on IMDb, one dated 1955, another in 1981 and another in 2008? Which ones have you seen? I'll be waiting for your reviews, so remember to tell me when you have the time to post them :nod: :thumbs_up

I am greatly interesting in that part of the world, especially since it's so close to Antarctica. I just bought the great nature film March of the Penquins, too. When I looked at my globe the other night I just realised how far south Argentina really was...wow, that is so cool!

---

Shackleton starring Kenneth Branagh? No, I haven't seen it yet. I'll have to add it to my list. I live in a city located some 622 miles to the west of Buenos Aires, quite a distance I must say. Buenos Aires is the place by the sea and my place is the one by the mountains :D

I feel I've watched March of the Penguins.... is it a BBC documentary?

Oh yes, TV producers want us to think a lot, to analyze the message they intend to give, and hopefully to find something in ourselves through the story.

I was curious to see what everyone was raving about. I did find it entertaining since I like Hugh Laurie. I also watched his family series in Britian of 40 Something. It too was great fun. I buy a lot of BBC dramas.

---

The plot for Airwolf is more or less like this: It's the story of an advanced combat helicopter developed by a secret agency for special missions. Its creator prefers to use it for personal benefit though, so the government hires another pilot to recover it from its wayward inventor but he has conditions, that is, to work for the government in special missions piloting the chopper while the government must pull some strings in order to find his brother, missing in action during the Vietnam war where they both served. It was a very advanced/original action series for the time, created by Donald P. Bellisario, and I think it somewhat opened the gates for the action/sci-fi shows of today. Jean Michael Vincent, Alex Cord and Ernest Borgnine were the main stars. The great Sylvester Levay was in charge of the soundtrack.

House IS A MUST. A top-notch cast for a top-quality show :nod: :D

Now that I am thinking about it, it may have been on my other computer which did have XP. It could possibly work on this one, now that I have waaaayy more RAM.

Oh, yes um. He's my favorite actor. I collect all his films and his screenplay books and anything else I can locate. I also have a channel page on Youtube dedicated to him but with playlists encompassing a lot more. Shackleton is a must-see. It's an amazing story and totally true. I have researched it and the real story is even more amazing and hard to believe. Let me know when you will watch it and I will rewatch here, too. I own the 3 disk set....great stuff!

His crew went ahead of him and he meet them a week or so later in Buenos Aires. Ever since then it has had this allure for me; also South Georgia Island must be amazing to see. Mountains are nice to live by though. I bet your area is beautiful.

I have seen a few of Ernest's works though I must confess I'm more learned in modern-day movie and TV industry. He's 92 by now, and still active. I found he has some projects in production for next year. I found Airwolf's soundtrack while surfing the web. Here it's very hard to find soundtracks, especially classical ones, unless you buy them on-line.

---

It's incredible how he portrays a character who gives a first impression of a somewhat cold, insensitive doctor only concerned in diagnosing, but when we watch carefully we can see how the man has a heart of his own, how he seeks for a way to heal a patient and how he suffers when he's about to lose the fight, though he pretends he's just doing his job in an objective way. Only great actors can portray characters with such conflicting personalities :)

This thread was abandoned in the middle of Lit Net's Sea, so it's ours now... and the LEAST WE ARE DOING IS TO TALK ABOUT OUR CRUSHES ON OTHER LIT-NETTERS. :lol: but it's just fine because they don't seem interested in this thread any longer, so if we crush on any of them they would probably not realize :p :D

It does make one feel rather powerful to have a whole topic of their own :D

I might be an internet pirate, but I don't know about the viking. While the vikings sailed the seas to look for someone to fight with, Finns didn't travel so far just for that: they were quite satisfied with stabbing each other with their knives :lol:

Stabbing each other is much more practical than picking fights with other countries. You don't need to build so many fanciful ships for that... just knives and one or two swords and/or shields from time to time... maybe http://www.freesmileys.org/emoticons...n-misc-017.gif ......... http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/s...aughing021.gif

I'm watching the MTV Video Music Awards right now. Taylor Swift won the award for best female video. When she was making her speech, Kanye West walked up on to the stage, took her microphone, and said that Beyonce should have won. Poor Taylor.

^ yikes. And the Tactlessness Award goes to...

^ This isn't the first time that Kanye has done something like this. Some people never learn.

^ there's just no excuse for certain things.

^ I agree. I don't even know why he gets invited to shows like this.

^ The media thrives on controversies to get higher ratings and this will get everyone talking. But I just find this kind of thing distasteful.

^ Taylor left the building in tears. She's only 19 years old, and this was her first VMA award. Kanye should be ashamed of himself.

...so much for our own private fun; apparently, we have been highjacked or pirated onto another ship - called 'Live Chat'!

So, a little surgery will do the trick, Max?....hummm...which part of the face needs help? Also, to match Johnny Depp's look you may need a lot of heavy eyemake-up. :lol:

Is that ship the same "Bounty" used for the movie starring Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson?

Oh I don't know; I do doubt it. My friend sent me the pirate ship pictures awhile ago. I have two more of that particular ship. She said it's the actual one used in the "Pirates of the Carribean" films. I don't think though, it hoisted that American flag on it's mask, during the shooting, do you?...more like a skull and crossbones. It's moored in some harbor in Florida, probably near or in Disney World. Cool, isn't it? It has probably be used in a lot of films; yes, that is a possibility.

Oh you're quite thinking about pirates, aren't you? How "viking" of you!! :lol: :lol:Annamariah is very resourceful and creative. She's a good viking!

Both of you should hear my confession: I am very pirate myself. I have been pirating lately ... and this pirated thread is a good proof of my word :lol:

---

Could you expound on that and clear up the mystery. Specifically, are we talking about ships or computers? :lol:

That's what you think....we've been found out. Abandoned true, but we are now relocated to this new location. We've been MOVED to another ocean!
