Fun Thread- favorate tv shows, books, movies..

[pumpkinpie]

I thought I'd start a fun thread here! So, if anyone wants to share anything that is fun, or interesting to them, such as your favorate books, tv shows, movies, interesting stories, or more, here's a place for it.

I only watch one show, and that's the Gilmore Girls. I used to watch Everwood, but they cancelled it this past fall, and I was really disappointed about that.
My favorate movie is Great Expectations, with Gwenyth Paltrow and Ethan Hawke.
My favorate book is The Guardian By: Nicholas Sparks.

World
By: Five for Fighting

Got a package full of Wishes
A Time machine, a Magic Wand
A Globe made out of Gold
No Instructions or Commandments
Laws of Gravity or Indecisions to uphold
Printed on the box I see
A.C.M.E.'s Build-a-World-to-be
Take a chance - Grab a piece
Help me to believe it...
What kind of world do you want?
Think Anything...
Let's start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now...
Should there be people or peoples
Money, Funny pedestals for Fools who never pay
Raise your Army - Choose your Steeple
Don't be shy, the satellites can look the other way
Lose the Earthquakes - Keep the Faults
Fill the oceans without the salt
Let every Man own his own Hand...
Sunlight's on the Bridge
Sunlight's on the Way...
Tomorrow's Calling
There's more to this than Love
What kind of world do you want?
What kind of world do you want?
What kind of world do you want?
Think Anything...
Let's start at the start
Build a masterpiece
History Starts Now
Be careful what you wish for
Start now

Moments
BY: Emerson Drive

I was coming to the end of a long long walk
When a man crawled out of a cardboard box
Under the e. street bridge
Followed me onto it
I went out halfway across
With that homeless shadow tagging along
So I dug for some change
Wouldn't need it anyway
He took it looking just a bit ashamed
He said, you know, I haven't always been this way

I've had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do...
Like that plane ride coming home from the war
That summer my son was born
And memories like a coat so warm
A cold wind can't get through
Looking at me now you might not know it
But I've had my moments
I stood there trying to find my nerve
Wondering if a single soul on earth
Would care at all
Miss me when I'm gone
That old man just kept hanging around
Looking at me, looking down
I think he recognized
That look in my eyes
Standing with him there I felt ashamed
I said, you know, I haven't always felt this way

I've had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do...
Like the day I walked away from the wine
For a woman who became my wife
And a love that, when it was right
Could always see me through
Looking at me now you might not know it
But I've had my moments

I know somewhere 'round' the trashcan fire tonight
That old man tells his story one more time
He says:

I've had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do
Like that cool night on the e. street bridge
When a young man almost ended it
I was right there, wasn't scared a bit
And I helped to pull him through
Looking at me now you might not know it
Oh, looking at me now you might not know it
But I've had my moments


(I love this song, and I think it really shows a good example of how one person can make a big difference sometimes.
I think this song is also about good times, days in the sun, people who have helped us through bad times, and being proud of what we've accomplished.)

I like 24, CSI Las Vegas, Law and Order SVU, Smallville, and Dexter.

Favourite books would have to be my course books for school cause that's the only thing I have time to read....

I watched Smallville a couple times but didn't like it. Did you ever watch the Gilmore Girls? That was my favorate! I'm pretty sure I watched every episode. Unfortunately they cancelled it after about 7 seasons, but I really do think the show ran it's cource. It was a great mother/daughter show. I have a four year old daughter and as a joke I sometimes tell her that "we're the Gilmore Girls!" What a neat mother/daughter bond the Gilmore Girls had, and the show was 'light' and funny. I miss it.

"Walk the Line" is my new favorite movie! A nice love story with all of Johnny Cash's hits played through out the movie, and Reese Witherspoon playing an excellent part.
