my parents both lived in NJ and did not.
why did they need a landlady then? if they were supposed to be equal partners according to original agreement for over our heads? She would have just sold her share to the girls
Pelosi is smart otherwise she would not be Speaker of the U.S. House again (to date she is the only woman of either party) or remain in office. Donald Trump WAS successfully impeached in the House.
Palin is a nobody Her 'Sarahpac' folded Her defamation suit against the New York Times just because she did not like what they said was dismissed. And she also keeps parting ways with Fox News even if on 'amicable terms' Uhh yeah. If she's not in the spotlight she's not able to get attention for the sake of it.
It is hard to find a woman who is six feet tall
And you have to consider there's only so many minutes even in the time span of a film to cover everything/as much as possible They packed as much as they could into one screenplay.
The film is difficult to follow along unless you know general American history and then developments re disability issues in America
Schools being able to lock children with disabilities outin the 1950's,
disabled vets with ptsd and having alcoholism from experiences of war,
people with disabilities going into business for themselves bc they cannot get hired elsewhere
Drug use to cope with childhood sexual etc abuse and then the rehabilitation
dying from a medical condition
It does not sound saccharine
it didn't really explain what happened to her sisters. They vanished and I think the film should have explained what happened to them, where they went with their lives. But the film overall is good.
This was one of the VERY few recent shows I adored. Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar were the perfect combo. I faithfully watched each episode.
Unfortunately we're not going to get to see it now. Shame too.
I'd rather have Mrs. Doubtfire than Barney. No contest there.
As for his mother having sex with the principal so he is able to attend school during the 1950's, she did what she had to do in order to give her son an access to public education.
Laws requiring equal access to public schools for people with disabilities didn't exist until the 1970's--and she did not have money/connections to send him to a private school (like very wealthy families did when they found out their children did have disabilities back then).
So she worked with what she had. The law was written against her and Forrest during that time. She had to work with what she had if he was going to receive an education.
People think what his mom did is 'terrible' one because the history of the disability movement is not known (actually the film IS telling it by showing what lengths parents...etc went to) and two because people with disabilities now do not have to do those things in order to obtain public education.
Yeah. Totally unexpected and extremely disappointing too. I feel like it genuinely marked me getting 'over the hill' watching the guy I had a crush on in jr high die from a stroke. Ironic bc Kurt Cobain's death had marked my entering high school.
Oh well, my parents had Kennedy/King and Lennon to mark their coming of age and then becoming middle age.
I doubt it since it allowed everybody to get a paycheck for a few more seasons. if he had not come back the series might as well have been pulled. Compared to the earlier years there was essentially no marketing available then. Studios tried to shift heart throb status onto ziering and green after years of them being in the background. And that's admirable in a way. Give them some screen time. But it was difficult to believe the series focus was on them. What they should have done was also mend fences with Shannen and bring her back.
I was looking @ the news. I thought it was a joke--somebody had tampered with the internet. It did not register. I had grown up watching him. The idea of him dead was unfathomable.
as long as you could pass the physical tests during basic training sure.
I hope you're aware that Mark Felt was deep throat

yeah I could see him in it.
They switched Darrins bc Dick York had medical issues and could not continue in the role.
they just don't walk into your house. WTF. Wow
ok
