<p>Just<strong> hold down the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the top of your phone at the same time</strong>.   There will be a slight flashing of the screen.   You should then hear the camera &#8216;click&#8217; sound.</p>

<p><strong>Glengary Glen Ross (1992)</strong></p>
<p>Jenna – This movie is about a bunch of guys in an office.  But it’s not funny like that television show The Office.   Most of the time everyone is really angry and yelling.</p>
<p>The story takes place one rainy night at a real estate store.  Some guy comes in (<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000285/" target="_blank">Alec Baldwin</a>) and yells at the rest of the people.  He tells them they are crummy salesmen and won’t let them have any coffee.  He said because coffee is for closers.   Everyone in the office thought he was a jerk.</p>
<p>They have a sales contest where the winner gets a new car, second place gets a set of steak knifes and third place is they are fired.  The salesmen get really worried they are going to loose their job.  I don’t know why it seemed like a really crappy place to work.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.houseofodd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/glengaryglenross.jpg" alt="glengaryglenross.jpg" align="right" />One of the salesmen (<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000493/" target="_blank">Jack Lemmon</a>) has a sick daughter and tries real hard to make a sale so she can have like an operation or something.  But he keeps having trouble because his cards have bad leads.</p>
<p>The rest of the time they keep yelling at the office manager guy (<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000228/" target="_blank">Kevin Spacey</a>) because they want more cards with good leads.  I think a lead is a phone number of somebody who might like to buy something.  I would have used the computer to search but I guess this was a long time ago before the internet was invented.</p>
<p>Daddy said this movie had a lot of famous actors in it like that Creator guy from The Truman Show (<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000438/" target="_blank">Ed Harris</a>) and the Scarface guy (<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000199/" target="_blank">Al Pacino</a>).</p>
<p>Ethan -   I didn’t watch this movie.  I left after five minutes to go play with my LEGO</p>

<p>After opening the account some 25 months ago I checked the Netflix Top 100 list.   At the time the number one movie was <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0375679/" target="_blank">Crash</a>.  The critically acclaimed Crash was released in September of 2005 to DVD.</p>
<p>Fast forward to May 2008 and Crash is still holding the number one spot.   Having checked periodically it has never budged from the top.  How is this possible?  Is it that popular of a flick?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Imagine this scenario. It is mid morning and after three cups of burnt<br />
coffee you a mid-level office drone feels the pangs of nature calling.</p>
<p>Off to the nearest clean restroom facitlity you go. The handicap<br />
accessible stall is your preference because it gives you all the<br />
lebensraum you require.</p>
<p>Before beginning the depanting procedure you notice a little<br />
unfinished business from the previous occupant.</p>
<p>You have this not wanting to &#8216;cross the streams&#8217; policy so a preflush<br />
is needed.</p>
<p>One flush, two flushes, still hanging on. These low flow toilets can&#8217;t<br />
handle anything.</p>
<p>A third and forth flush is required. As the forth flush valiently<br />
attempts to dislodge a stuborn piece of toilet paper you feel<br />
something cold hit your cheek.</p>
<p>Its not only cold but its wet. The toilet expelled some water high up<br />
into the stratosphere and invaded your face.</p>
<p>Thank the maker that the first three flushes had purged the bowl of<br />
all the discolored material before the horrific incident occurred.</p>
<p>Is it cool to use Purel on your face?</p>

<p><strong>I Am Legend</strong> (2007)</p>
<p><strong>Ethan</strong>:   Jenna won’t be reviewing this movie because she only watched the last 10 minutes.  She was busy doing homework or something.<br />
This movie is about this guy (Will Smith) and his dog.  He is in the Army or something and is also a scientist.    He lives in New York all alone because some other scientist made some virus by mistake that killed all the people on the planet.<br />
<img src="http://www.houseofodd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/iamlegend.jpg" alt="iamlegend.jpg" align="right" /> He spends his days with his dog hunting deer in the middle of the empty streets of the city.  At night he has to hide from the mutant humans.  Daddy keeps calling them zombies but I have to correct him.  There is a huge difference.</p>
<p>If I was the only person left on Earth it might be fun.  I would go to the LEGO store and get all the LEGOs that I could carry.   I would stay up late and if the TV still worked I would watch all my Star Wars DVDs and nobody would tell me to stop.  I’d sleep on the couch and never take a shower.  I’d eat only Frosted Flakes and Root Beer.  Not at the same time though, that would be gross.</p>
<p>It might be lonely after a while so I’d like to have a couple of my cats with me. They could also warn me if any giant rats tried to attack me.</p>
<p>This movie was kind neat.  I would recommend it to my friends since it had mutant humans.</p>

<a href="http://www.nypost.com/seven/03102008/news/regionalnews/public_enemy_no_1_101271.htm" target="_blank"><br />
Two Bronx New York 4-year-olds were handcuffed by a school safety officer for the high crime of refusing to take a nap</a>.   A substitute teacher took pre-felons Jaden Diaz and Christopher Brito into an empty classroom.   They were then met by a &#8217;safety&#8217; officer who handcuffed their tiny wrists.</p>
<p>They were also reportedly told that they&#8217;d never see their parents again.   Certainly this punishment fits their unspeakably heinous crime.</p>
<p>Surprise, surprise,  the parents are suing.</p>
