Oh- it's PotC 2- Dead Man's Chest. Sorry- I always call it that, even when just talking, and no one ever understands it. Sorry.
Hmm... who's the author?? I don't think I have. I'll have to put it on my [extremely long] reading list.  It sounds good though.

Agreed- I love google.
No, I haven't read it. Like I said, I'll have to put it on my list. Sounds good!!
Right now I'm reading The Kite Runner- it's really good too. Have you read it??

It's about modern day Afghanistan... so it is pretty sad. It's extremely well written though, I'm really enjoying it. And I'm also reading 1984 for school, which is interesting.

Lol, good to hear it.  I'm not doing anything... actually, I am going to go see Eragon this afternoon. I'm looking forward to seeing it, but I've heard that it's nothing like the book. Have you seen it??

Yea, i saw it the day it came out. lol It's good, but the book's better (as usual) lol It's entertaining, but.....they just needed 2 spend more time on it....it needed 2 be a 3-hour LotR type movie......but it's not. It's still good, just kinda....rushed. when r u going?

Actually, this will probably be my last post. We have to leave soon. Sorry.
Yes, I figured.  It will still be fun to see it though. That's generally what I've heard. That and also that it wasn't a lot like the book.
Well, I'll talk to you later. Have a good afternoon/evening.

Back.  I liked it... I don't know though, they deviated a lot from the book. And I agree- it was really short, while they could have made it much better with more time.

i agree....but it's still entertaining; the books r just better. Actually, LotR are the only movies taht i actually like as much as the books.....not really more; they're so diff, u cant really compare the 2....but i usually almost ALWAYS like the books better. lol

Pip- Yes, I agree. The books are almost always better than the movies. I think that I can think of only one exception to that- The Notebook. I actually like the movie better than the book. That's the only time though.  Have you seen it/read it??
I've been pretty good, Jax. You wouldn't believe it- it's snowing again here. We got about 6 feet of snow, that melted down to 1-2 feet, and now we're expecting at least 3 feet.  I heard that it's supposed to rain over where you guys are. Is it??
