Anon is like autonomous ... just is without even cognizance of it ... running along with sympathy and Para sympathetic metaphor!

Tis a deep conjecture beyond superficial substance ... facetious dodge? Like incarnate ... appearing as isn't ... a manifest imaginary being ... spirits ... can bring on haunts and drive m'n mad ... fatalistic Ephraim ... be the death of me ...

Me too. The kids wear my clothes, play with my toys, share the same street games, and sound like the long ago me.
I actually just bought the Call the midwife books as a gift for my friend who loves to read. According to the reviews, the books are better than the movies. I am looking forward to reading them after she is done with them.
 
I really enjoyed Call the Midwife while watching. I find with Netflix I do tend to watch things differently though, and once I have stopped watching a show to catch up with something else (like a new season of OITNB) I have trouble getting back into it. I have a few shows where I watched a fair number of episodes and still have it on my list with more to watch or I just take a long time to start a new season - the 3% is the current one that I just haven't picked up yet even though I really liked it.
 
"Come Sunday" was mentioned in the sermon on Sunday. I have started watching it. About a successful preachers who changes his theology and the results. I'd love to discuss this with others who have watched it.

Check the Movies You'd Like to See thread. Waterfall and I commented on it there.

Probably not a bad idea to start a thread specifically on it over in R&F though. The conversation could get lost in here.

Sounds like an interesting show Tabitha. From what did he change his theology - and to what? Did he correct his feelings when he found himself in error - or did he backslide?

See the posts I mentioned in Movie... . Waterfall and I got into it in more detail and I also posted a link to a podcast about it.

How was it used in the sermon Tabitha?
 
Actually watched a movie this afternoon. Not one that is likely to appeal to many around here, but I loved it.

What We Do In the Shadows is a "mockumentary" purporting to be a reality-style documentary about four housemates who are vampires of various ages (the oldest is said to 8000 years old, the youngest 183). A fifth vampire (and eventually a sixth) are created during the movie. There's humour aplenty, but it does get dark at times, too. The portrayal of vampires is pretty straightforward with none of rationalizing and re-imagining that goes on in a lot of modern vampire stories. They fly, turn into animals, hypnotize people, have human servants, and, yes, kill people for food, often in spectacularly gory fashion. They don't show up in mirrors, they are repelled by crosses and killed by sunlight. There is also a rivalry with a pack of werewolves (vampires and werewolves as rivals or even enemies is a common theme in modern vampire fiction) that leads to the climax of the film. Strange and supernatural as these guys are, though, the vampires are given very human personalities and needs. One pines for a woman he lost decades earlier when she married someone else, one nurses a centuries-old grudge against an ex, and so on. It's a comedy, but one that is both dark at times, and has a heart at times. A thumbs up from me, for sure, but I definitely in the target audience. (Rated R for swearing and gore.)
