If I'm missing something, please enlighten me.

1. Level Three
Lots of activity during the SOTU. The admins shut down a few unnecessary features to keep up.

3. Ah-ha... I could have guessed. Thanks so much. I turned the SOTU sound off, but
husband still looking at the picture. I think hubby is drifting off to sleep.

Good night, darling!

2. Level 3 because of Chimpy's speech.
Because of heavy traffic on DU, some features might be turned off and graphics take longer to load than a simple text feature like the little blue x's in gold blocks.

7. Hey RL...Have you seen Pan's Labyrinth yet?
I asked you about it a while back. It still hasn't opened here, but I noticed today it got a Best Pic nominatiation.

As an insider, was that unexpected? It wasn't on any of the "likely" lists I read....

:hi:

9. Lots of reviewers saw it, but we just couldn't make the two previews.
Edited on Tue Jan-23-07 10:14 PM by Radio_Lady
Everybody (all the reviewers I talked to) liked the movie.

We're on track to get out of town -- but we have to see it pretty soon -- or in Las Vegas, if possible!

Have you checked at http://www.us.imdb.com and http://www.metacritic.com and http://www.rottentomatoes.com

Thanks for asking.

Warm regards,

Radio Lady
