And contributing to the Things We Hate portion of the thread, I absolutely hate On Her Majesties Secret Service. I have sat through that one two times, and it was two times too many.

I hate that I had to go back 21 pages to find this.
I hate that I got into a car accident this afternoon. Fortunately, it isn't my fault. The woman rear-ended me.

Sucks about the car wreck. Hope no one got hurt, and hope you get whatever damage came to your car fixed easily enough.

the accident wasn't too bad. It was just a fender bender. It just frazzles your nerves. I may not even bother to get my car fixed. I just hope her insurance company doesn't try to put the blame on me somehow. Screwy things happen when insurance companies and lawyers and such get involved.

Yes, Lazenby, thankyou. Being a long time Bond fan, I knew his name, it just escaped me last night. Like Connery's movies, Moore's tend to be pretty campy, but if you know how to appreciate that short of thing they can be a lot of fun. I always liked Moore's attitude as Bond. Brosnan's Bond always reminded me a lot of Moore's. Just based on observation, I think Moore was the Bond Brosnan tried to emulate, the attitudes they display is so similiar.

I love On Her Majesty's Silver Service and I enjoyed Lazenby too.

I hate people who go through the express lane(where a big sign is hanging say "15 or fewer items") in the Supermarket with more than 15 items. I also hate when they do that and then pay it with check and you have to stand and wait while they write the whole check out. Couldn't you at least some of the stuff ahead of time?

Ugh, I totally agree! The last time I was out shopping, I had three items and went to the express lane only to find that the lady in front of me was totally violating the number rule. I was stuck behind her so long, I had time to count. She had at least 40 ITEMS!!!

40 items? If she had that many items, the sales clerk should have told her that she couldn't use the express lane. I can understand sales clerks letting customers slide if he/she is just a few items over, but 40? That's just silly.

I hate that a six packs counts as one item.
I love six packs. If they are bottles. And good quality beer.

The problem, of course, is that they combine the express lane with the cigarette lane, so every smoker, no matter how many items they have, will be going through it.

yeah, the express lane should be separate. I hate that tonight's Phillies game was canceled because of snow. There is something wrong with a baseball game being canceled because of snow.

I hate when I can't ride because it's raining....yet.......I love when it's raining - because I can open the doors & windows, put on one of my four rain albums, and really take in the atmosphere.
I too love when it is raining. I never get how it seems like everyone around me gets annoyed and depressed when it rains. I love opening the windows and reading a book while listening to the rain fall. I also love to take walks in the rain. So, what are your four rain albums, Anchorhead?
Veering slightly back on topic before going off again... I hate that I live in a place with very little rain.

Just out of curiousity Frink, why does the six pack counting as one item (especially since it is sold as one item at one price) bug you?
I also love good quality beer and I always drink it in bottles. Every now and then I'll go visit a friend and they offer me a can and I'll drink it but it is never quite the same. Hmm, maybe we should start a beer discussion thread, though I wouldn't dare be the one to start it, as my threads are always doomed to failure. But I'd sure post in it...

Ah, it doesn't really bug me. Was just being silly. I really do love six packs of good bottled beer, however.

So, what are your four rain albums, Anchorhead?
They go beyond favorite. A rain album is one that was first heard on a rainy day and I emotionally connected with during that initial two or three day period. That connection is usually formed over the first few days of listening and if it happens to be raining those first days, the album connects with that as well. When that happens, the distinction of Rain Album is bestowed upon it. It's my way of preserving that initial emotional connection. I have a couple of films that also have watching criteria.
The rain-only listening is something I'm absolutely staunch with - no exceptions, ever. If they come on the radio, I turn it off for a moment. Actually there are five, I left out one in my earlier post. So, without further ado, the five albums I listen to only when it's raining - the five albums I've NEVER heard on a sunny day....
The Beatles - Let It Be
Supertramp - Brother Where You Bound
Genesis - Duke
Genesis - Calling All Stations
Genesis - Live Over Europe - During that tour, I saw them at The Hollywood Bowl - it rained for nearly the entire show. It was perfect. So in this case, it was the event that created the rain album.
Honorable Mention (albums that I think sound best on rainy days, but were not born into it, so I make exceptions)
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
Genesis - Wind & Wuthering
Yes - Close To The Edge
Yes - Union
Pink Floyd - A Momentary Lapse Of Reason
I listen to more film soundtracks than I can list. Some that come to mind as great rain albums are;
The Da Vinci Code
Batman Begins
Blade Runner*
Apocalypse Now
Alien
Solaris
Memoirs Of A Geisha
Cast Away
- just to name a few.
*Since it's release - watched ONLY on cold, rainy nights.

I hate that our plumbing is stopped up. We can't take baths or flush a toilet right now.
I hate that I got into fight with my parents tonight. I'm not even sure who's fault it is. I am fed up with the stuff between my parents and me.

I hate that our plumbing got stopped up again and we had a flood in our basement. Hopefully, we have it fixed for good this time.
I hate the yankees(but not their fans on here).

C3PX said:Hey, Roger Moore, while he may not be the best Bond, is in some of the coolest Bond films.
From what I've seen, Moore has a good attitude for the character - he just, you know, was given some pretty cheesy movies to act in. I mean, Moonraker? If he'd been given better stuff to work with more people would like him.
Of the few Bond movies I've seen, I think From Russia with Love convinced me that Connery was the best. That movie's really good.

Connery - From Russia With Love
Lazenby - OHMSS
Moore - For your Eyes Only
Dalton - Living Daylights
Brosnan - GoldenEye
Craig - Casion Royale
Those are the only Bond movies I need. Maybe with Quantum of Solace if the third Craid movie makes a solid trilogy of his films.
