It was pretty funny, although a little alarming considering their size.<br /><br />May I suggest that you have lots of friends who would come be your fingers, arms, elbows & shoulders while you mend? I would be there if it weren't for the 3-1/2 hr. commute (not counting border delays).Dianenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12707009.post-60442538556388378972010-09-02T00:58:11.000-04:002010-09-02T00:58:11.000-04:00No no no, light, yes, but heat on the peanut butte...No no no, light, yes, but heat on the peanut butter? Only on days like today and if the AC breaks at the grocery store.<br /><br />I had a penguin play like that once at Monterey, copying and following me and throwing its head back and waggling its jaws when I laughed.

Is this a reflection on a lack of depth in female characters in movies or simply a lack of depth in secondary characters in movies. If you think about secondary characters, how many of them have any meaningful conversations with each other about anything other then the main character(s) (who is/are overwhelmingly male). This then raises a whole other question about why lead characters are all male, but we won't go there. Is it also simply a reflection on the lack of strong characters (male or female) in modern popular movies? I would hazard a guess that yes, indeed, it is. Here is an interesting article about one woman's thoughts onthe difference between strong female characters and strong characters, female http://www.overthinkingit.com/2008/08/18/why-strong-female-characters-are-bad-for-women/. Just some thoughts and none of them invalidate Bechdel but it is interesting to dig a little deaper.Catherinenoreply@blogger.com
