    I'm not sure but "Jeepers Creepers" was one of the WORST movies ever made.. I still can't get over the fact that they made a sequel.

    pretty much... i was pissed that they ruined some good ideas with such a crappy movie. :mad:

    i guess i'll never be happy until i spontaneously become a writer/director.... hmm, why do i have to be such a geek? :(

    edit: his name was Gene Victor Toombs (as mentioned in the lie detector test :p ) but the episode WAS named 'squeeze'

    This is what has worked well for me:

    Work out a different body part 6 days per week, then do cardio and ABS for 1/2 hour. So, here's my schedule for example:

    Monday - Shoulders
    Tuesday - Biceps
    Wednesday - Triceps
    Thursday - Back
    Friday - Chest & Legs

    Cardio and ABS are done everyday, and if I have time (or the ambition) on the weekend, I'll do a full cardio workout only. Again, focus on the single body part that day, but work it out for a FULL hour, with multiple exercises... I usually stick to the pyramid approach - 3 sets, increasing the weight with each set: 1st set - 14 reps to failure, 2nd set 12 reps to failure, 3rd set - 10 reps to failure.

    Do that, plus eat TONS of protein, no junk or fast food, take your vitamins, and within a couple months, none of your clothes will fit you.

    A couple other "scary" movies that I was really disappointed in are: Wrong Turn, Wolf Creek, The Village, Fear dot com...

    I liked Hide and Seek, Identity, the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Ring.. I'm kind of a tough audience.

    out of all them i only bothered to see The Village (touted as Christopher Reeve's last movie at the time) and The Ring. Village was... um, i forget... soooo, forgettable i guess. :p

    The Ring, that was kinda groundbreaking in it's creepiness, it wasn't scary, but i'd never felt chills before the way i did with that movie, ugh. i know lots of people didn't like The Grudge (same writer or director i think) but what it did for me was introduce that scared-of-the-dark feeling into the daytime and other usually non-scary atmosphere's. eg, i do overnight shifts occasionally in the office (programmer :rolleyes: ) and that's fine, but every now and then i realize i'm the only person in a 12 storey office tower... usually when i'm fumbling through the other areas heading to the loo.... :(

    i quite enjoyed Final Destination (plus sequel), also Idle Hands, can't think of much else creepy/scary in the last decade that was worth watching.

    I like psychological thrillers mostly.. I don't do the damn chick flicks. Horror, action, and sometimes comedy are my things.. I don't like happy endings or predictability..

    If you haven't seen Hide and Seek yet you should.. I REALLY enjoyed that one. I need to check out The Grudge, I've heard good and bad things about that one but I prefer to make my own judgments.

    The last guy I was seeing and I went to see Wolf Creek and when we walked out it was dark and a guy approached us in the parking lot asking for jumper cables ..I didn't mean to but I laughed in his face, rather ironic if you've seen the movie. It was a creepy coincidence but that movie was awful.

    yeah forget the plot of The Grudge, it becomes frustrating and stupid, but the concepts in it are really creepy if you let that stuff bother you (i do :( ).

    won't bother with wolf creek, if it's on when i'm round a mates place and drunk sure i'll watch a bit, otherwise looks a bit wanna-be.

    oh, i have to watch Donny Darko again. i saw it a couple years ago, and i still haven't decided whether i loved it or hated it yet.

    Wolf Creek was extremely slow.. my ex was whining and I told him to be patient and that it would probably get much better but it's based on a true story so, it's not ALL supposed to be exciting. Well, the whole thing sucked.. the first hour to an hour and a half was a crapload of NOTHING. :(

    If you can bang ho's everyday....and so the logic follows?

    Swimming is good...I like mountain biking....spin-up some tunes in your ears, get into a groove, search for that ever-elusive female wearing spandex and follow. :)

    I'm sorry, I'm sorry....all this weight-lifting just throws my testosterone levels around an tweeks my fragile little mind into a state of pervesion. NOT that it's a bad thing. :)
