I just watched The View. Janet Napolitano was on and they were discussing illegal immigrants. Janet says when someone is arrested databases are checked to see if they are wanted for other crimes. This makes sense. Then she says now when someone is arrested the immigration database is checked to see if they are here illegally. This also makes sense. Then she says if they are here illegally they are deported “after” they have served their time. That makes me crazy!

Sybil
This is an older flick from 1976. Maybe some of you remember it. I had watched this many years ago, but decided to watch it again. It is based on a true story about a woman named Sybil Dorsett who had multiple personality disorder with at least 16 different personalities (now known as DID). Sally Field plays Sybil and Joanne Woodard her psychiatrist and some of you may recognize Natasha Ryan (Hope) from Days of Our Lives who plays little Sybil.

Survivor Nicaragua Episode 5
I can’t believe Marty thinks he is in control of that tribe.
LOL, so much for your plans Marty and Naonka!
Tyrone is cracking me up, but he’s going to get himself in trouble.

Legends of The Fall
An excellent movie about family, war, love and a bear. Starring Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins, Julia Ormond, Aidan Quinn, and Henry Thomas.
Somewhat of a tearjerker, but still very good movie. Based on the book.
Definitely a 5 star movie.

Mission Of The Shark: Saga of The USS Indianapolis
A true wartime drama based on actual events starring Stacy Keach, Richard Thomas and David Caruso.
The USS Indianapolis is the ship that delivered the atomic bomb that would be used to destroy Hiroshima. After completing this mission, the ship is hit with a Japanese torpedo. Due to the secrecy of the mission their rescue is delayed for five days and the shipwrecked sailors have to fight to stay alive in the Philippine Sea.
This movie was filmed in 1991. At first glance I thought boy these guys look young, then I realized 1991 was almost twenty years ago not ten. LOL
I give this one 3.5 stars.

Survivor Nicaragua Episode 4
This show really doesn't do a good job of keeping my attention anymore. I'm really not sure why I'm watching it.
I find it hard to believe they can't find food. If it were me, I think I'd be following those monkeys to see what they are eating. There has got to be food on the island besides fish.

Temple Grandin - Awesome Movie
This is a movie based on a real life person. Temple Grandin is a woman with Autism - Aspergers who has a photographic memory and appears to eat only yogurt, pudding and green Jell-O.
This is an incredible story. Temple Grandin started college in the late ‘60’s and not only had to deal with her Autism - Aspergers but being discriminated against because she is a woman. Despite all this she accomplishes amazing things. Just to name a few without giving away too much about the movie. She receives her Doctoral degree, invents the hug machine, is published in many magazines, and has published a couple of books.

Survivor Nicaragua Episode 3
I love Jimmy Johnson talking to the monkeys.
Naonka is one the nastiest people I've seen since Brittney and Monet. I don't understand why people have to personally attack other people.
Jimmy Johnson was voted out.
Fairly boring episode, except for Naonka attacking the fruit basket to get a clue she doesn't know how to decipher.
It will be interesting to see if some of the big mouths on the older team will be able to put their money where their mouth is. They seem to think they are so much better than Jimmy, yet they are the ones that pretty much put Jimmy J in the leader position, which I think was done in part so they could blame him for the loses.
I think it time for some people on the older team to put up or shut up.

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog
I probably would not have picked this movie to watch had someone not recommended it to me, just because I don't usually care for musicals. This was evidently written during the 2008 writers strike and originally debuted as an online mini series.
It is a short 42 minute quirky musical starring Nathan Fillion as Captain Hammer and Neil Patrick Harris as Dr. Horrible. Both fall in love with the same girl played by Felicia Day.
This movie mad me laugh out loud several times. If you need a good laugh this will do it.
I give it 5 stars just for the laughing.
