<r>Watching the people file into that gigantic thing was like watching the stepford wives movie :wah: I just don't get it.

I must protest. I could only be dragged in kicking and screaming. The only thing attracting me to that hideous thing are those giant candy pieces that keep calling my name.

<r>Anyone see the GIANT Gingerbread House they built at the mall of America using real candy and cookies? Ok, it isn't that exciting, its actually a waste of space if you ask me. You have to pay $3 to get inside and as far as I can tell there isn't much to see inside. I'm all for charities and every...

<r>Do you like adventures Nomad? I'm going to grab the bf by the short hairs and make him go letterbox hunting with me, even if it kills him. He's being all negative because we looked up the clues for the ones hidden in our city and they've all been stolen so he's feeling we'll go on a 2...

Thank you Nomad! And yes... I will tell her you said that. I was shocked that she felt this way. Here, I always thought everyone liked receiving those letters

I always enjoy the ones I get - especially when people get really creative.

<t>Does anyone here write Christmas letters? If you don't write them, do you receive any? What do you think about them? I'm just curious as to why people write Christmas letters and if you receive them, why you enjoy it or why you hate it. I send Christmas letters each year... ...

Minnesotans? Has anyone tried letterboxing? I'm curious because we are going to give it a try and there are several locations here in Minnesota and wondered if anyone else in this area had tried it and wanted to see what you found.

<r>Rainbow Smiles, hi! Thank you for your nice comments and your thoughtful post.

I haven't seen it yet. I'm scared to. I saw the original that the screenplay by Scorscese based his film on (Infernal Affairs) and I really loved that one and I'm afraid the Departed won't measure up. But it is really hard to resist the beauty of Mark Whalberg.

Last I checked I didn't think anyone was trying to win anything. I think we were attempting to communicate and we failed. At least I know I must have. :-3
