My sister needs help with the groceries

Today, Whimsy has the best idea for a post/comment prompt ever.

You should go read it, and comment. As a special treat, if you do, you will see a bonus story from me in the comments. You may see several. I may go back and post dozens more stories; I like it that much.

Inspiring

I realize I'm (again) in danger of turning this into a blog about TV and weather, but really, we've had a zillion inches of snow up here. There's nothing else to talk about.

Now Netflix thinks I might want to watch "Inspiring Movies." I can only assume this is because I watched The Aggressives on demand twice in two days. (Side note: If you've seen The Aggressives and want to discuss it, let me know. I very much want to discuss it.)

It has a list of 50, in fact, to recommend to me. Here are the top 16:
  • Stuart Little 3: Call of the Wild
  • Tyler Perry's I Can Do Bad All by Myself
  • 3 Ninjas: Kick Back
  • Knucklehead
  • Pay It Forward
  • Free Willy 4: Escape from Pirate's Cove
  • Racing Stripes
  • The Pianist
  • More Than a Game
  • Saints and Soldiers
  • Here on Earth
  • Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price
  • Bring It On Again
  • Forever Strong
  • La Bamba
  • Over the Top
Um, what?
