Most of the times. I use to talk nonsense and I have a bad mouth. Thanks God that on the forum there's an edit button and a certain moderator who takes care.
Let's not lose Starter's Q: If you could have been anywhere in the world this weekend would you have picked Bahrain (this is an auto racing board) or somewhere else?

I would have picked a place where there is still snow or at least cold weather.....39C on Sunday here and we might hit 40 this week
(that's 100+ for you Americans
)

Well, I hardly can call my cooking "proper meal". But my latest release was pork with potatoes baked in the owen. I don't know how to translate it in english. it's considered an easy to cook dish. I cooked it for the first time in my life ( !!!!!!!!!!!! Ok, I know I'm weird...) about a week ago for Easter. And this is what it looked like. I imortalised it for the posterity.
Please don't laugh.
When was the last time you got drunk?

I could have sworn it would be you to answer this......
I can't remember. ( because I NEVER get drunk, I know when I have to stop)
Probably that day when I drank beer in my school uniform.

As strange as it seems, I can't remember hearing or reading them when I was a kid. I know my mother read to us, as I remember some Dr Suess and other stuff. I do often wonder though how some of these fairy tales become the ones we heard, or now teach to our kids. I was reading Jack and the Beanstalk to my daughter when she was little, and after the fact thought it's really not a good tale for kids. Broken down, he uses the magic bean to rob and murder someone. How did that become a book we want to read to kids?
Since I had no answer, I'm not posting a question, but providing a thread bump!

I've noticed that all of you avoid my Q.
It's probably hard for a guy to admit he ever liked fairy tales.

gadjo, like airshifter, I vaguely remember reading or being told those stories...but to be honest I did not like them much then and do not like them now. So my 2 yr old watches Grp B rally cars or a recording of BB King/Clapton instead of hearing fairy tales from me.
Do you often feel that endings of books/movies and especially tv shows throws away all the build up of the main body of work? I find that the end could have been done better and somehow drags that work downwards.Tito Vilanova = :champion:

Shall I risk to answer this? I took my share of cold showers either on fórum from mr.K or on work where I ended by adopting a silentio stampa attitude.....Once I read that în USA movies should end such as the audience wanted. A bad end would mean a low box office. And if I think twice rare are the american movies that end bad. Maybe that's the key to my lack of interest în them. Now to be honest I don`t care if a book or movie ends well or not, the important thing is that the end of them isn`t previsible. And if I also think of all the movies I saw lately( sadly, I don`t read anymore ), most of them ended unclear letting the audience to think whatever they want.
As probably you`ve noticed, I used to be a fan of TV series. In this particular case I`ve noticed that all start promising, with a very detailed action, but then ends abrubtly and disappoining as if produceres lack money, ideas or interest.
What is the book/movie that you wanted to have a different ending?

Many actually, I can't name just one right away but for some plot based stuff often the explanation falls flat at the end while the build up is nice and intense. Like you I often dislike the all too happy endings of Hollywood movies (lets not even talk abt Bollywood!). An ambivalent or sometimes even a tragic ending makes that story even better. Different from the herd at least.
