Organic Superlube? Oh, it's great stuff, great stuff. You really have to keep an eye on it, though--it'll try and slide away from you the first chance it gets.

Ha! Considering people have been expecting a rapture for thousands of years, kinda silly to be expecting one within your life-time, huh? :). At least wait until 2012 like Caesar says.

They just released a second movie on DVD though.

Yes, they had a first one.

I think they're still making more books, but I'm not sure. I avoid "Left Behind" and "Harry Potter" equally as much.

Harry Potter is popular because it's so fucking awesome.

I read the first book of each series. I thought they were well written. But I'm not going to be swept into some marketting hype while buying into the 14th book of a collection because 'I just have to know what happens to Eloise' or something. I appreciated the literary quality of the originals without being manipulated into wasting a fortune by marketting campaign and tired plot tricks.

"The Plot Continues, in Book 47." No thanks. I don't watch TV, I don't read protracted fiction novels. They're not worth my time, which is sparse these days.

So you don't want to buy the sequal to a book you enjoyed because the writer wants to sell it?

I don't have cable.

I didn't like the book, I appreciated it, and no I don't want to buy a sequel to a book because a writer signed a contract agreeing to write sequels for as long as the publishing company requests them.
