Since there are spoilers as some folk in my area don't get Angel until Friday, I've moved the comments to the extended entry.... http://www.sfad.org/julia/pop/archives/001401.shtml http://www.sfad.org/julia/pop/archives/001401.shtml Television Wed, 02 Apr 2003 22:59:25 -0500 I don't know how to review music, so bear with me, here. I don't care for music. This is strange in someone like myself, who thinks in music.

Now I have to stick to "Pervert," which probably evolves to "DirtyOldManoman."

Unless you're a real fan of the genre, it's nothing you need to pick up or borrow. http://www.sfad.org/julia/pop/archives/000694.shtml http://www.sfad.org/julia/pop/archives/000694.shtml Books Thu, 21 Nov 2002 14:59:42 -0500 http://www.sfad.org/julia/pop/archives/000693.shtml http://www.sfad.org/julia/pop/archives/000693.shtml Movies Tue, 30 Jul 2002 13:47:40 -0500 Reign of Fire 2002 Starring: Matthew McConaughy, Christian Bale, Izabella Scorupco, and Gerard Butler.
