    OT
    We're in a great area in that the Dominion Virginia nerve center offices are within 2 miles, in fact their large complex is next door to the commercial office complex where my office is located. So far, only a few dimmers.

    PROOF THAT BRAD PITT READS THIS MESSAGE BOARD!!!

    He’s obviously acting out the part of Jason from my Omega Man Fantasy scene. This today from E! Online:

    Brad Pitt Becomes Real Life Hero, Rescues Woman From Zombie Attack

    On the set of his upcoming zombie flick World War Z in Scotland, Brad Pitt took a turn as a real-life life saver when he rescued a fallen extra.

    So what happened?

    While shooting a scene in which 700 extras flee a pack of zombies, a woman slipped and fell, putting her at risk of being trampled by her fellow actors.

    When Pitt noticed the woman's predicament, he rushed over, picked her up and carried her to safety.



    Who knew? Now if they say he has a loyal dog named Carly I’m going to head for Hollywood!

    Rans: I'm a movie buff, I have Direct TV premiere package (bragging again bay , I have Netflix, and is a member of Columbiahouse where they offer great prices for DVDs, Bluray and video games, but when I first heard of RedBox, I felt as if I had gone to heaven. When I can't wait for my movie order, I rush to RedBox, they are everywhere in my city, so I share your joy about RedBox and yes, Limitless is a great movie.

    Off off topic: I just saw my mailman his windbreaker clinging to his body as the wind whipped him to and fro, he has a slight frame. I felt a rush of 'love' for him since I wasn't expecting mail today. He was also bringing me goodies to tide me over: Jane Eyre with yummy Michael Fassbender and books.
    I thank everyone for their concern, maybe because I've lived through three major hurricanes in the last five years I'm not all that worried. I hope that everyone in it's path stay safe and dry.

    Scrimmage - When you do go to H'wood, please use the sex germs for good and not evil.
    The Lucy and Desi movie is on Youtube, of course in 9 minute increments, but I watched a bit. Maurice would be better in that role today, but 20 years ago he looked alot younger than Desi in that period of his life.

    Ignoring the fact that almost the second that Lucky is a free man, Elizabeth starts fantasizing about Jason, I’d like to give my opinion on why their supposedly supportive relationship is not good for either one of them.

    First, we must address the elephant in the room. Lucky and Liz are lousy lovers. At least together. Think about it.

    Lucky and Elizabeth’s relationship was built on a traumatic event, just at the time in their adolescent lives when fantasies about love and sex bump into reality. Patterns are established, and played out over and over again throughout adulthood. After her first violent exposure to sex, Lucky and Liz slowly fell in love because Lucky was always extremely sensitive to her understandable misgivings and discomfort about having a physical relationship. He was patient, and over time, Liz finally felt reassured and confident enough to begin a healthy adult relationship with the man she loved.

    It’s often overlooked that this was Lucky’s introduction to sex too. From that beginning, Lucky has always been very low key, and no doubt extremely gentle with Liz when it comes to sex. I believe that since that time, whether consciously, or out of habit or instinct, he thinks of Elizabeth as that fragile teenage victim, and still treats her accordingly, as if she was made of glass. The problem is that Elizabeth is not glass. In fact, she had grown into a flesh and blood woman, with needs that she had never known as a teen.

    Once something in Liz was awakened by Nicholas, the fact that she felt the need to continue her affair with him at all costs speaks to her feelings that something vital was missing in her relationship with Lucky. If Lucky is honest with himself, he’d probably admit that sex with Liz wasn’t all that great for him either.

    The fact is that Lucky can’t see Elizabeth as anything but the sweet, fragile young girl whose innocence was brutally stolen. Liz is all too aware of the pedestal that Lucky has her on and she will go to almost any lengths to preserve that image of herself in his mind. That is one of the main sources of their dysfunction as a couple. In spite of the fact that they have both cheated, the trust and complete faith they have in each other blinds them to the weaknesses and faults that each of them has as well, and by ignoring those problems, encourages and enables them to continue doing things that they shouldn’t, usually until a disaster jolts them back to reality. She encourages him when she shouldn’t and he trusts her and relies on her when he shouldn’t. In their case, trust and faith are four letter words. It’s a pattern they fall into over and over again, and the reason why their relationship is toxic, and why they should never be a couple again.

    Scrimmage - We also don't know what Helena did to Lucky when he was in her "care". I would love to see some flashbacks from their time together.

    I hope everyone in the path of Irene are safe and sound. I’ve caught up on the comments from this afternoon. Great comments and insights on why Liz is the way she is. I thought 4my’s theory that she hasn’t adequately grieved for Jake and is somehow using this drug thing as a distraction made some sense.

    Let’s see. We have been given a good wine recommendation and 3 or 4 star movie review- I’d say most of us are all set for the night. I must confess I read the synopsis for the movie and thought it would be over my head. I’m leaning towards something that will take less brain power or in my case less questions and talking.
    Risa- I hope Irene doesn’t hit the cape too hard. Stay safe and dry.

    LowCountry Girl- Are you twins- girls, boys or both? We have 2 1/2 year old twins girls. I talked with my mom earlier today and she said it was sunny but windy on Kiawah. Hope your son had a nice birthday.

    Tippsy- It looks to me that they might be going with a Liz/Matt pairing. I have never seen them interact so much with each other as they have this last week or two. You might get your wish….but, be careful what you wish for.
