Well because these all use the same source material, and even more used it but a little more loosely.
And the New Movie is about the same story the Karloff and Frazer movies were

The Mummy (1999)
The Mummy (1932)
The Mummy (1959)

So to say "Re-Make"is totally in line!

You have twice outed yourself to me as civiclx. Why are you still denying it?

Guy who drives a Porsche at my gym likes to split two parking spaces when parking. Not a big deal since it's not like the lot is ever packed, but still, what's the mentality behind that kind of behavior?

slm · 06-08-2017, 11:16 PM

I'm sure he does it to protect his car from dings, but I think it's so rude and pompous... especially if there is ever a lack of spots. And even if there's not, I hope he parks way in the back / far down the lot. Either way, I think it screams DB. As my BF says, don't drive it, if you can't afford to fix it.

p.s. However, if I had a shiny new red Ferrari, I'd probably be tempted to do the same.

Birthday Twin, can you just tell us and not leave us in suspense?

Groot, I finally saw Wonder Woman. Assuming you have, are you so pleased with Chris Pine? I thought of you!!

I just discovered that I have an odd addiction. I got a new drill press a couple weeks ago and I decided to treat myself to some new drill bits. When I went to organize my gear tonight, I discovered that I own over 700 drill bits...most of which have never been out of the box. I honestly had no idea that I was doing this. It seems that I've been buying drill bits for decades and just forgetting about them

^ Without having more context, I don't think it's weird. It's a complement, right? He must think you are witty or have intelligent comments or something. If he was creepy/stalkerish while managing you, then it would be weird. Since you said he's a really nice guy, I'd take it as a complement.

Wondering if using Craigslist to find an apartment is a good idea. I've noticed many in my area don't include phone numbers and the couple I've inquired via e-mail don't seem to get responses. The ads are still up so I presume they're still available.

I can't recall what my son-in-law was selling, but when he meant the guy and his buddy ( 2 of them showed up )
he was robbed at gun piont of the item and all his money.
And the Gun he ( my son-in-law ) had in his Truck. ( I would of had it in my waistband )

Sooo, I do not have anything good to say about doing Business on Craigslist.

Except maybe you need to bring 1 or 2 people with you to even the odd's...

I blame it on Generation X'ers ( not all, but most ), and their Millennial offspring! ( again, not all, but most )

I'm watching the MS's E3 press conference and I have to say Sea of Thieves looks kinda fun.
