My mom always knits when she watches movies. In fact, she refuses to
watch one unless she has something to do with her hands.

I use knitting as a way to keep me from eating, as I rarely want to touch what
I'm working on with gakked up hands.

I used to knit while watching TV. Till I realised that I was watching
6 hours of TV a day with the excuse that it wasn't a total waste of
time since I was doing something productiove. On analysis, the
argument didn't have much weight, especially in light of all the half-
finished projects lying around the house.

I have to have something to do with my hands when watching movies or TV. I
don't watch much TV anymore (no time with schoolwork, and nothing all that
interesting on anyway). I usually take knitting with me on the few occasions
that we actually go see a movie at a theater (I have been knitting for so long
that my fingers know what to do so I don't have to actually look at it).
I also knit while reading, especially textbooks. I don't have a problem
finishing knitted projects. Staci and I are currently working on Christmas
presents. This may mean that we actually go to the video store to rent DVDs
since my Netfilx account only allows 3 at a time with mailing back and forth
in between. I think we are going to need more than that to finish up our
projects before Santa time.

Oh - caught "Pirates of the Carribean" last night. Good flick, but I was
ready for it to be over long before it was.

Our daughter crochets when watching TV - no clicking of needles.

Another commitment plus busy-ness at work kept me from seeing any of the
last half of "Angels in America" on HBO. Saw the first half when it
debuted a week ago Sunday. What an amazing movie! Will see the rest
at my earliest opportunity.

Well, as before I can't say much good about how Peter Jackson interprets
characters. But the scenery, the castles, and especially the beasties were
all really cool.

Hey, you don't have to hide. The grexiest of the grexers have
been known to watch TV, so you don't have to hide the habit so much.

Actually... I wouldn't. Most Grexers are much, much mellower. Marcus,
however, is too mellow for the award. So is Jan.

Mellow isn't the word I'd use though.
No, jan's not very Grexy.

Vote for me! I am the Grexiest!!
(Actually, having thought about it for a bit, I've come to
the conclusion that Grexiness is an elusive concept, and there's
probably no such thing. There's some *stereotypes* of what
Grexers are like (e.g. read m-net), but those aren't reality.)
(Also, the drift nazi in me impells me to remind y'all that
this is the movie item.)

response which is distyinctly so.

Yes, yes, "elusive concept" and "y'all" in the same response is sooooo
Grexy!
