I learned some interesting facts,some of which I already knew; but only in a foggy manner.

1.) Asset-forfeiture laws allow the gov’t to take away property without the normal due process.

2.) Congress is NOT subject to the same laws and programs as are it’s citizenry. Witness the health care debacle which interestingly enough, Koontz spoke of in a foreshadowing fashion in this 1994 novel.

Hard to believe that Beyonce would ever be second fiddle to a blonde chick.

Actually, she was; dude never came on to her once.

The final catfight scene was actually pretty good.

Harmless, who-dunit tripe.

Did you identify a tad with the alimony paying, down on his luck, husband Seamus?

Patricia Cornwell displayed more dark humor in this series than I remember in the Kay Scarpetta novels.

Also, Jeff Davis’ wife’s name was Varina.

Hands down, the most depressing movie I’ve ever seen.

Bleak and dark in every way.

It took me a couple minutes to figure out why Ben killed himself on ice—-he was wanting to keep the heart and other organs preserved.

Very intense movie; I think I liked it because of the redemption theme.

I did tend to enjoy Crash more, but seeing as how this movie came before Crash, I believe you got to give it credit.

The dog scenes were quite graphic; and very realistic. Wonder how they kept PETA off their backs?

I liked how this book shows that the pilot is constantly in contact with somebody in ground control, and that planes can almost land themselves (with the exception of deploying landing gear and doing something with the flaps).

Lots of samurai stabbing themselves, and hanging out in “teahouses.”

Great cinematography, though.

Definitely some of the most unsympathetic characters I’ve run across in a long time. What punks!

The story line was brittle, the soundtrack was decent. Rebecca D. sure is a shell of the woman she was from Risky Business Days.
