1. I'm not big on TV. What is "Dave"?

4. It's a movie I got from netflix, so not TV.
It's about a guy who has to step in, in place of the President, because the prez is in a coma. Kevin Kline. Pretty funny.

18. Thanks. I can't think of Kevin making any duds, so I hope it was good!

3. The beagle is enjoying stretching out next to me on the sofa, mostly!
She sends scritchies to your dogfriend! :hi:

6. Do you believe in reincarnation?

8. No. I'm agnostic about life after death in general, but certainly don't
think one can know with the specificity necessary to believe in reincarnation.

Thanks for an interesting question! :hi:

11. I don't believe in "believing" things with no evidence
Hence when a co-worker asks, "will you be in tomorrow", I always say "I'm planning on it", instead of yes. I would hate to go to my grave as a liar.

I would love to be reincarnated as my dog. He has a dog's life! Eat, drink, shit, piss, sleep. NO PRESSURE!!

9. The beagle will do anything, if you promise her a peanut butter dog biscuit.
Shower scene! :woohoo:

13. Just make sure that peanut butter dog biscuit isn't on the recall list first.
We wouldn't want a sick bodyguard for ya ;)

Yes, the shower scene is likely the true turning point of the movie

20. Actually, the beagle is off the peanut butter dog biscuits for the duration.
Much to her consternation. But she loves baby carrots and "carrot chips", so she's getting those for now.

10. She is only PRETENDING to watch it in hopes of a belly rub.
My question? Why are you making her wait?

14. Are you in the UK?
Dave's available on Freeview, channel 19.

If you've ever watched Top Gear, they'll reference the channel, because they get repeated to death on Dave.

Mark.

21. No. My ancestors started leaving the UK in 1764--and kept leaving
right through the 1830's. I don't know what you people did to piss off my ancestors, but it worked. They left England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. :)

So, no. No Freeview for me!

19. Have they released the version with Charles Grodin digitally edited out yet?
That's the one I'm waiting for.

23. Frank Langella is kind of fun to watch in this and in Frost/Nixon
perhaps he's underappreciated.
