    yep!

    Might be hard to find.... I'll look around for it here too...

    Here's the info:
    http://us.imdb.com/Title?0078341

    Edit: HOLY COW! half.com has it for 38 dollars (that's the cheapest!). Guess it depends on how much you reeeeeally want to see it.

    Check the video store. They may have it.

    I just borrowed these 3 books from the library today. Two fiction and one non-fiction.

    A Means to Evil by John Trenhaile

    Hand in Glove by Robert Goddard

    And lastly, The Complete Idiot`s Guide to Chosing, Training, and Raising a Dog by Sarah Hodgeson
    (No, I am not planning on getting another dog! I got this book because it looks like a fun read, and, although I have owned and trained a number of dogs in my time, I reckon I am still not to old or set in my ways to learn something new. Especially where getting Bob to behave is concerned!)

    I also got the lastest issues of Your Dog and Your Cat magazines.....yikes, I don`t know where to start!

    Good thread!

    I am currently reading Distant Shores by Kristin Hannah. This is the second book I have read by this author. I love these book threads because they give me ideas of some good books that I might not hear about otherwise.

    I'm into the Agatha Cristie's so my dad went out and bought some more books.
    I'm reading "The mirror Crack'd from side to side" now and next will be "Black Coffee" "A murder is announced" and "and then there were none"

    from one falling star to another till i drop. This is the night, what it does to you.
    I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion.”

    I just finished "Naked Empire" by Terry Goodkind...don't get wierd about the title, it's a perfectly harmless fantasy book.

    Currently I'm re-reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

    Thank you Wolf_Q!

    I'm reading "Ashes to Ashes," by Tami Hoag. I pretty much just "judged the book by it's cover" when choosing it at the store... I was in a hurry. It's ok. It'd be better if every other word wasn't a curse word.

    I've recently finished "Notes from a Big Country" by Bill Bryson and have started with "Solo's Journey" by Joy Smith Aiken...just the perfect read for a lazy summer day...or two...
