i bet the Flight of The Navigator script is still in there somewhere
A perk of a 24″ widescreen monitor is that you can watch movies and have plenty of screen real estate left for work. I wind up watching more than working, of course. I’m not good at multi-tasking while watching something. If I care about watching a movie I’m annoyed when people talk during it. I also can’t stand to hear more than one stream of music at once. Competing harmonies or melodies drives me crazy, but some people don’t seem to mind. I think my brain likes to latch on and follow these things with intense focus. When I was very young I’d memorize movies after a few viewings. I memorized all the lines from the plays my folks were directing.
It doesn’t exactly work that way anymore, of course. =)
I just watched Serenity again and damn that’s a fine flick.

I remember complete lyrics from stupid pop songs of my youth. I did not especially like the songs, nor deliberately listen to them, but hearing them on the radio recorded them indelibly in that layer of my mind that hums and sings tunes all by itself. Sort of like auditory eidetic memory. Gift or Curse?

ice ice baby = curse
humpty dance = gift
