I don't just watch scary movies. As a matter of fact I have been trying to find classic spy movies. I have found a few good ones. These are mostly comedy and thriller classics, but I wanted to let you know encase you get into the mood I did. Fathom with Raquel Welch was fun and exciting. She was a female James Bond. Another one with a pretty face and fun thrilling action was Caprice with Doris Day. I always thought she played in movies that percieved her as a bumbling blond. In Caprice she was still a bumbling blond, but she was also a cunning spy. Audrey Hepburn was also a sneaky theif / spy with Peter O'Toole in How to Steal A Million. This was a good movie, both stars are young and beautiful, also I can't think of anything that quite compares to it today. The last two have a small series of movies to watch. If you like Dean Martin as a spy and not a music man, the Silencers is one of four to the series. Lastly, The Thin Man, with William Powell and Myrna Loy also with four to the series and all good. The Thin Man is in black and white, I realize some people may not like this. The last two series also have lots of drinking involved, so if you are a heavy drinker and trying to stay off the sauce, these two movies may not be the best for you.

Re: Television: single service; Internet: multiple services

I completely agree with Larry Press on this one. There is too much differentiating between information services like Internet and Television. Being somewhat older as I am I was surprised that the phone still costs money even when someone else calls me, years ago that was free. I admit I don’t understand the whole thing. To me it seems as if air should be free.
I am a full time student in college and feel I need some way of getting onto the internet for my studies, but of course it is much too expensive. The comparisons of water and gas should hopefully get people worried enough to do something about it.
At this time I am currently choosing between cable Internet and DSL. Cable Internet on one hand is a little faster, but on the other hand it doesn’t slow down from 7 to 10:00 at night, while they both seem to accomplish mainly the same things.
Within our class outline the post would fit under technology and on my part it would fit all skills and concepts.

The information-service business model is costing us dearly

Zombies Are Back

Saw a few new movies this week. A couple of them were zombie movies. One, The Mad, was comedy like and a B movie. It reminded me of Black Sheep and Slither. Although, Slither had nothing to do with zombies it seemed to have the same feel about it, but Slither was better. Second, was Zombieland, this movie I would suggest getting the Blu-Ray. I do plan to watch it again. It would be a good movie to watch with friends who are into that sort of thing. The Oohs and Aahs could be loud and fun. Another scary movie I watched was Cabin Fever 2, it was pretty gross. A flesh eating virus that can be transmitted through even sharing of lipstick. This time the second one was just as good as the first. Not like the disappointment of Wrong Turn 3. One more movie I wanted to mention was Shattered Lives 2009, this movie was what I call "not a real movie". The type of movie that some made with the camera from their dad's garage.

As time goes by I plan to Blog about more movies, Friends of Bill, school, teachers, computers, and hopefully more with your help.

Movies of the new age

I watch a lot of horror movies and plan to post some of my discoveries. I realize there are people out there just like me who don't know which movies are good or which are bad. I am refering to the horror movies that look as though someone has made the movie in their backyard and put this really cool picture on the cover. Sometimes one may be able to find pretty good review on Netflix. I do write some reviews on Netflix myself, but most of the time I can't even find them. So as I rent the movies, I would like to let people know how the movies are. For instance, the new Friday the 13th was a very good film and I'm even waiting for the price to go down for the Blu-Ray (plus it has the girl from The Mentalist, which I also watch). Some of the new movies goods and bads; Midnight Meat Train (Good), Shrooms (Good), Splinter (Good), Trick r' Treat (confusing, but Good), Last Resort (Bad), Anacondas 3 (Bad), Wrong Turn 1 and 2 (Good), Part 3 (Bad).
I could go on and on, but I want to let you know you can comment or ask questions any time you like. I know those covers look good enough to spend 3 bucks on, but why not ask someone first.
I hope I will be able to help.
