Should I even vaguely consider renting the DVD, or is it SO bad > it'll make me cringe in horror-induced nausea? I guess rewatch the original and then rent the remake just so you can fully appreciate how much they totally fucked the movie over. It's definetly not worth buying at any price higher than $1. The original is still a great movie even though the futuristic 1970s sets look extremely dated (punched cards computers).

Well, then Happy Belated Birthday!!!!! > How's your intern program going, anyway? Arrrrg. Let's see, I've had to reprimand my group facilitator for taking off in the bus twice without doing a headcount, leaving three interns behind both times (and that's gotta be scary - being left behind in downtown DC with no English ability at all)... I've had to give a sexual harrassment talk (for some very unpleasant reasons), I've had to explain twice why open container laws are ones I don't want them to break, I have had to remind some of the guys that prostitution isn't legal almost everywhere here, and I am watching one guy like a hawk, since he falsified his visa application (saying he has no relatives here, when, in fact, most of his family is here), since he's already asking me about weather in L.A. ...and we're not going to L.A. Typical program. No one has gotten arrested yet, thank god. > So, are you going to Chicago for business or pleasure? And aren't I being nosy today? ;) Be nosy - it makes life more interesting! I'm going to Chicago with my delegation - - we get to watch a building burn at Underwriters Laboratories. Fire - good! And a HUGE thank you to one William Steffey and his friend at the Chicago Visitors Bureau for restaurant suggestions for my horde o' people!!! :-) Much obliged!!! (Hey, William - play any gigs in Chicago? It would be a kick to see one of the Alloy'ed perform!) I'm also driving down to my hometown of Moline to see siblings, see what's become of my mom's house in the past year, and, finally, visit the cemetery to see her headstone, which, I am annoyed to say, still does not have her wings chiseled into it. Grrr. I'd consider doing a little chisel work myself, but I think I could get busted PDQ for messing with a headstone in a National Cemetery... And Robyn - enjoy seeing AB! I guess I'll just have to watch him on tv and be satisfied. Sigh... Cheers, Melissa - -- Melissa R. Jordan Hope is a good thing. Maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies.
