Hi webmaster! efp
Great site!
I met a fan of yours at the screening for NEXT DAY AIR last night so I hope to become a new fan.
I have not seen 10,000 movies but I have been a movie buff/fan since the 1950s when my Mom used to walk me to one of three movie theaters near our house on the South side of Chicago. After a stint in Vietnam, I found that movies allowed me to vent/blow off steam and anxieties, so I have been going almost weekly ever since 1970. I am now retired and find myself still drawn to the silver screen. Should mention my love of foreign films (”Bien sur!” o “Por supuesto.”) too!
Looking forward to seeing you in the theater someday.
I have been searching for this stuff on Google and Yahoo and kept seeing coming across your site so I thought I would drop by and check your site out. Thanks for the useful and informative stuff you have here – what do you think are the best ways to quit smoking?
I found your site while browsing on google I’ve just added you to my yahoo rss Reader. Just wanted to say” keep up the good work” and congrats on a job well done! I am looking forward to reading more from you in the future. maybe we can swap links sometime?
I like the blog additions!
Proud of you TG! Love how the site has evolved. Keep it up!
