Giving thanks for Marty...

To tide me over the holiday weekend, I copied a meme from Marty. Of course, I am doing this with tons o' pop culture deliciousness. Consider yourself tagged. Oh- and if you're running out of things to be thankful for, watch "Home for the Holidays" this weekend if you get a chance. You'll thank me for it.

Here goes.

I'M AMAZED...
when I think about that scene in "Center Stage" where Cooper drives his motorcycle on stage in the middle of the ballet. Motorcycle! Ballet! Two great tastes that go great together.

I DOUBT...
seriously that Izzy would still have a job at Seattle Grace after she freaked out and killed Denny. I mean, really.

I CAN'T SEE...
"Snoopy Come Home" without crying. I mean more than misting up. Full out crying.

I WANT TO BEAT WITH A SOCKFUL OF QUARTERS...
Kramer. I mean, holy stromboli!

I'M ADDICTED...
to "Adam's Rib." Hepburn and Tracy. Sigh. Could watch it for days. "Lawyers should never marry other lawyers. This is called in-breeding; from this comes idiot children... and other lawyers." Ah, Kip!

I FEEL BAD...
for the Hotlips Houlihan character in the movie version of "MASH." They were so awful to her.

I WATCH...
"Star Trek: the Next Generation" re-runs. Shut up.

I LISTEN...
to Mr. Rogers on tv when I get ready in the morning, sometimes.

IF I HAD A MILLION DOLLARS...
I would go visit the manor where "Remains of the Day" was filmed. Sheezus I love that movie.

I WANT...
"My So-Called Life" to have more episodes. Man, they cut that off right in the middle of everything! Angst interruptus!

I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT...
"Manteca," by Dizzy Gillespie. Or "Lucky Star," by Madonna.

I'M OBSESSED...
with the cheezy goodness of Doris Day. I mean, when she keeps imagining beds every time she is around Cary Grant in "That Touch of Mink?" Oh, I am engorged with Velveeta and I love it.

I THINK CHILDREN...
should never be exposed to the Oompa Loompas in the original "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." They scared the shit out of me.

I CAN'T WAIT...
for the Landmark Theatres in my town to get new seats. The ones they have now are older than I am, I'm sure of it. Every time I go there I remember how Alli's mom used to warn us that we'd get ringworm from movie theater seats.

I'M PROUD...
that I've seen Nellie Oleson in person.

I HAVE A DREAM...
with Jon Stewart in it. Rawr.

I ALWAYS WEAR...
my pajamas when I watch "Lost." Have to be in pajamas before I snuggle up to watch it. Just have to.

I FEAR...
Ted Levine, even when I see him on "Monk." To me, he'll always be Gumb the Moth Guy from "Silence of the Lambs." *shudder*

I WISH...
there was a tv comedy set in a library. I certainly feel like I work in a sitcom.

I ONCE ACCIDENTALLY...
went to a New Kids on the Block concert. It was an accident. I swear.

I NEVER...
saw "Top Gun." I'm kind of proud of that.

I MISS...
watching "The Ten Commandments" on tv with my mom every year. We would try and estimate how much baby oil Heston had on and I would do my best to imitate Anne Baxter's sultry pre-Kathleen-Turner voice. "Moses, Moooo-ses."

I'M LOATHE TO ADMIT...
that I still to this day miss "Northern Exposure." What a cheezball I am.

I'LL NEVER FORGIVE...
any of those movies where intelligent, beautiful women choose to
romance Jack Nicholson. Helen Hunt and Diane Keaton, I'm looking at
you.

Kiss the rings, I'm out.
