Hello friends. I'm looking for a book. There's also a movie based off of said book, so if it sounds like a movie you've seen, please comment.

It's about this guy who has a stroke and ends up with locked in syndrome and can only communicate through blinking one eye. It's a true story. He ends up writing a book with the help of one of his therapists.

I am posting this for someone else. He basically wants to find out the name of the actress in this movie. In the movie there is a rich old guy who has a stroke in the beginning of the movie and is bed ridden most of the time. He needs to use a wheelchair at other times. He is married to a girl much younger than him. She gets married to him at a young age, but really loves him. She then starts to fall in love with another man who has a teenage daughter. The old man finds out about their affair and he talks to the other guy while the girl is out of town for some work to check if this man really loves her. She wants to stop the relationship with the other man because she actually still love the old man as well. In the end when the old man dies she goes away to be by herself. In the end she end up with the other man after reading a letter from the old man. According to him the movie might have come out in late 80s or early 90s. Any help is appreciated.

Overture Films announced they've picked up the dramatic thriller Stone starring Robert De Niro, Edward Norton, Frances Conroy, and Milla Jovovich. Stone was directed by John Curran (The Painted Veil) from a script by Junebug writer Angus MacLachlan, and produced by David Mimran, Jordan Schur and Holly Wiersma. The film stars De Niro as a parole officer targeted by an arsonist (Norton) out to secure his parole. Jovovich plays Norton's gorgeous wife.

Overture expands its slate of 2010 films with Stone, adding the thriller to a list of upcoming releases that already includes The Crazies (February 26, 2010) and Brooklyn's Finest (March 5, 2010). And Overture's backing Philip Seymour Hoffman's directorial debut, Jack Goes Boating, which is also aiming for a 2010 release. In addition, the studio has Let Me In, the remake of Let the Right One In, currently in production.

De Niro's latest film, Everybody's Fine, opened in theaters December 4th to lukewarm reviews. Norton's working on adapting Jonathan Lethem's book, Motherless Brooklyn, and is set to star in and direct the crime drama. And Milla Jovovich is currently filming the fourth film of the Resident Evil series, Resident Evil: Afterlife.

Ok, so my friend told me a story a couple years ago... she said she heard it on like cassette tape as one of those Audio books or something.

Its about a man who goes hiking and then gets hurt & then some wild hairy beasty woman saves him & takes her to his cave & takes care of him. Somehow they fall in love & have themselves a half hairy thing half human baby. They live with eachother and then the guy is curious to go back to civilization and does and then the hairy woman gets angry and tears the baby in half keeping the hairy baby or something like that.
My friend said thers a flute playing throughout the background of the story.

The way she told it was hilarious, but I'm really interested in hearing it for myself.
Anyone heard of it before?

I found this old handout when I was sorting my big box of crazy last night - see how many you can figure out!

What's that rock song with lyrics that sound like "Parked on bread"? I think it's from the 90s. It still gets decent enough airtime on the radio, and every time I hear "parked on bread".

Feel free to Friend Me for updates :D

Here is a wonderful card, sent to me by a lovely lady in Lithuania. Alas, the card is in Russian so neither of us know which volcanic eruption it is.



As far as I can tell, the back of the card says the photo is copyright 1978, so it must be before that. I am ashamed that my volcano-fu isn't picking it. Oh Alas! So if any of you know which one it is, let me know.

Update! I've transcribed a chunk of the back. Apparently the first line says "Massive eruption of first volcano" - informative, but not quite enough information :-) Here's the whole.
