It's hard to believe how far the Internet has come in such a short period of time. Well, I don't know, maybe I'm just old, because I remember, (however embarrassing it is to admit) that one of the reasons (besides Tom Hanks) I went to see this movie was because someone told me I looked like Meg Ryan, and I had no idea who she was...Actually, people kept telling me I looked like "Betsy" a character Meg Ryan played earlier in her career on the Soap Opera, "As The World Turns." When I look back on that now, I cannot believe I didn't know who Meg Ryan was...
Anyway, it makes me feel strange when I think about how much society has changed in the last twenty years, for instance, in addition to the Internet, remember the huge cell phones? I remember entertaining my son in his car seat by pretending to talk on his toy phone in the car. That would not work on a baby today...babies today are far too sophisticated for that~ (Smile)
(There is supposed to be a "read more" hack here, but I cannot get it to work. So forgive me, I'm sorry the post is so long.)
By the way, I would like to thank all of you, especially what's left of my regular readers, for dropping by when I post, or just whenever, lately. I know I have been somewhat of a ghost...and I'm grateful for your friendship and loyalty.
Please know, that I have not stopped blogging...I'm just trying to work through a difficult time, and it's not my style to bore you with the details.
But, I do think of you all often...especially my buddies, (you know who you are)and I'm hanging in here...so...I'll be back to my ole's self soon-
I hope you enjoy the clip, and if you haven't seen You've Got Mail, treat yourself and rent it.

The Muse, Hey, and I am always happy to hear from you. Lol, I love your comment...When I read Hang on girl...I actually saw an image of myself hanging onto the wing of a present day airplane...laughing...You're right, this world is "flying by and changing ever so..."
Well, hello, Mr. Stupid. Thank you for such a wonderful comment...one I needed to hear today. I love the name of your blog, and I will definitely follow up on your posts as well...:)
Plus, thanks for making me laugh..I dearly love your drawing...it's greaT~ :))
I am not a big fan of romantic comedy, but I think "You've Got Mail" is the best one ever. I rented it so many times, that I finally gave in and bought it. It didn't even make the AFI's top 100 list though... Go Figure!
This is one of my favorite scenes from the movie classic Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, starring Paul Newman, Robert Redford, and Katherine Ross.
Butch (Newman's character)takes Etta (Katherine Ross) for a ride on a bicycle for the first time- to the tune Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head by Burt Bacharach.
I hope you like it, this movie clip puts me in a great mood every time I see it...I would rather go on a bike ride like this than wined and dined in the finest restaurant, especially with Paul Newman.
Have a terrific Saturday, but look out for raindrops- Well.. that was a corny fragmented sentence wasn't it?
Oh well...watching this scene shook me up~ :))
Cheers and happy Saturday~

Happy Saturday! This Saturday's favorite movie moment is a video clip of the most romantic and heartbreaking scenes in the movie, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, starring Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet, with Bob Dylan singing 'Most Of The Time' in the background.
If you haven't seen Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, you should definitely rent it- it's one of those films everyone can relate too, I promise.
Have a happy, fun, dreamy, and if possible, romantic week-end - and remember: if romance is not in the picture right now, to have a happy, dreamy, and fun week-end anyway- because the way I see it, three out of four isn't bad- "Most of the Time" anyhow. :))

Sounds like he has it pretty bad. Haven't seen it. I didn't get the ending. Did she die? You have a romantic, happy, dreamy, and fun weekend. Big hug. :)
Bud Weiser, WTIT said, on 2/23/2008 4:42:00 PM
Yes, three out of four CAN be bad. I think I remember what romance was, but I am not entirely sure. Have a great weekend, Ann!
Ann said, on 2/23/2008 8:02:00 PM
Sandee, It's a real different movie, but terribly romantic. No, she didn't die, but she forgets, although it's a fantasy, and like I said real different, so it has a happy ending. I know you're more of a reader and believe it or not I am too, except when it comes to feature films. In other words, I don't watch much television either. Maybe a few shows a month. You are the only other person I know who would also rather read. But I do love films... And thank you for the wishful week-end! As I said, three out of four isn't bad~ "Most of the Time." :))
You have all the big fours! And if you're going on the boat be careful~ I can't blog without ya pal~
Big hug back~ Ann
Ann said, on 2/23/2008 8:03:00 PM
Oh come on Bud, happy, dreamy, and fun! You are all three! Plus, I'm not completely convinced that you've forgotten what romance is...
Because, like Bob Dylan says we can train ourselves to be o.k "Most of The Time" but the true romantic never forgets. :))
You have a great week-end too! :))

Paula said, on 2/24/2008 11:01:00 PM
This is one of my top ten all time fave movies Ann. And what's even cooler, is the whole movie reminds me of my relationship with my husband (on-again/off-again). And, my husband totally looks like the lead character Jim Carrey plays in the film, and his mannerisms are eerily similar.
Sometimes true love has to go through complete and utter hell I guess before you get to the heaven part. I'm glad I stuck around to find out.
Hope you are doing well!
Ann said, on 2/25/2008 6:21:00 AM
I'm glad you stuck it out too Paula. I think one reason this movie is so popular is because so many people can relate to it. I think I saw it about 25 times, no exaggeration. (LOL)
It does a good job of reminding us of how we need to appreciate each other more, and not be so picky about the little things. Relationships are hard work, but anything worth it is, don't you think?
I'm doing fine, and I hope you are doing well too~ :))

I've heard a lot of good things about this movie. Unfortunately, I never got around to watching it. All I get are bits and pieces from when I happen to switch channels or catch it on HBO. But from what I have watched, I wonder if this film is somehow similar to The Fountain. It's a movie with Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz and also contains a bit of surrealism of sorts.

I loved it Ann.... ah the choices we make eh ? I could quite easily watch it again :)
Sandee (Comedy +) said, on 2/27/2008 12:58:00 PM
Hope all is well. Kept waiting for Tuesday's Question and nothing. I just hope all is well. Big hug. :)
Ann said, on 2/27/2008 7:29:00 PM
Sandee, I'm so sorry sweetie and it means a lot to me that you care. I'm fine, with the exception of the worst abscessed tooth ever- I'm trying to write a light explanation of what happened to Tues Q. with one side of my face the size of a grapefruit. I will e-mail you if I can't get this post up or try and find your number. This, as I'm sure you know, is one of the hardest things about being the sole writer of a blog, and why these things happen on Tuesday are beyond me. I seemly couldn't post it yesterday, and am not feeling so swell today, although I'm going to try an get up some kind of explanation soon or e-mail one of my best pals (you) shortly.

If you knew how much that song went with my state right now, you'd be pleased...most of the time!
This Saturday's Favorite movie moment is from Tom Hanks 1988 blockbuster, Big, in which the star plays a thirteen year old boy transformed into an adult body by a magical gene machine at the State Fair.
This is my one of my favorite scenes, but the picture is fun, sweet, and hilarious from beginning to end- it's fabulous.

Tom Hanks is my favorite actor! His talent is amazing.
I LOVE this scene too.

Hi Ann! OMGosh, I love that movie! Though the ending made me cry :(
Ann said, on 2/16/2008 5:31:00 PM
Michelle, I know the ending made me cry too, but I consoled myself with the idea that maybe he would grow up a better man because of the experience. That doesn't help though, does it? LOL

TV Brackets said, on 2/17/2008 11:57:00 AM
I had totally forgot about this movie! I think my nephew would like this one, I think I will get it so we can watch it on his next sleepover.
This Saturday's Favorite Movie Moment debuted in 1973 and starred Ryan and Tatum O'Neal- Tatum who won an Oscar for the role.
I remember reading the book during class in Junior High, when we were told to read a chapter out of our textbook. I used to hide whatever novel I was reading inside my textbooks- I bet my teacher wondered why I never knew the material, because I read a lot of books that year.
Enjoy this scene, which is one of my favorites, and if you've never seen the movie or read the book, do both, it's a great story.
Happy Saturday!

Writing you now... you've got mail!
What is it that you are trying so hard not to tell us? P.S. Welcome back...
