Ewww, I'm watching a scary movie and everyone went to bed!

It's called Mirrors and I'm feeling really scared now.

Jack, I know I already asked you this, but I can't seem to find the place where I posted it... so I'm going to ask you again!

Will you be watching Prayers For Bobby with us tomorrow night? It comes on at 9pm our time (Eastern). Jess said she will be watching it too.

Yes, what is Prayers for Bobby about?

He said they would be around for years? Was that before they announced they would be closing their stores? I hate to see them go. CC was my favorite electronics store. That's where I bought my Canon G9!

My new monitor is doing just fine! I'm getting used to the new stretched look, just like Jess said I would.

I hate it too David. That is where my laptop and my case for it and my new desktop came from. I have bought many, many things from CC over the years. I always liked them much better than Best Buy. It seems all the stores I like go out of business. Of course, they say Best Buy may go under too along with Sears, KMart, The Gap, and many more.

It's on a DVD Jack. My friend dropped it off today and I'm watching it.

Apparently now we are supposed to be scared of our mirrors too! They already have us scared of everything else and a mirror was all that was left! lol

It's actually a pretty scary movie! Keifer Sutherland stars in it.

Best Buy always tries to push those bullshit service contracts on everyone. I hate that. I bought a service contract for this computer and when I had a problem they said they couldn't help me and directed me to Gateway. So when I called Gateway, they directed me back to Best Buy!

The employees at CC were always very nice. The store was clean and attractive and they never pushed the contracts on us. They'd ask us once and if we said no, they'd drop it. That is the way it SHOULD be. Best Buy is also very busy and disorganized. I can't find a damn THING in there. I feel like I need a map before I enter one of their stores.

It is about an overly religious mother who cannot accept her son's homosexuality. It got so bad he (Bobby) ended up committing suicide. Later the mother becomes an advocate for gay rights. It is based on a true story.

Here is some info about it on IMDb...

Also I posted an article about it in my website. A straight actor from the movie describes his awakening in the article. Now he is an advocate for gay rights also...

It should be a very good movie! I'm glad you will be joining us Jack!

What time did you say it came on David

It comes on at 9:00 pm, tonight... on Lifetime. They have been advertising this movie on that channel for months. It should be very good.
