Speaking of JC, A Sure Thing was on TV this afternoon. I watched it while I ate my malt-o-meal sans milk because my grandparents used up the last of my special organic milk to make hot cocoa. Grr.
Anyway, silly movie, but he's just so cute in it.
I think Serendipity is a cute movie, I just hate that the 2 of them both have fiances that they just randomly dump to be with each other. I always think "What about John Corbett? He was cute and funky and interesting!! What's going to happen to him!" I thought at the very least, they could have had a scene where the 2 dumped fiances meet and hit it off. Instead of leaving them hanging.
Movies where the fiances get dumped at the last minute and you don't ever find out what happens to them really bother me.
Mattie: I'm not such a big fan of microwavable popcorn. I prefer the air popper. Than you can add however much salt or butter or whatever you want. Micro-popcorn is too salty for me.

go take a look ;)
it's just a nation simulator more or less, they present you with issues every so often and you choose which course of action your government will take. it tells you what kind of government you have and what its focus is along with how it ranks in areas like civil or political rights and economy...just a fun little distraction kinda deal

I'll take a look, but the question has to be asked, do we really want me running a nation, even a virtual one?

You should never give powers to a leader you like that you’d hate to have given to a leader you fear

Do you really think you could do much worse than most of the people running real world nations?

I could try...
Okay I created a nation, Libertasterra (freeland):
Civil Rights:
Superb
Economy:
Fair
Political Freedoms:
Excellent
The Republic of Libertasterra is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its burgeoning eagle population. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Social Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 37%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Pizza Delivery.
Crime is moderate, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Libertasterra's national animal is the eagle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the dollarpound.
I might make another one called DictatorLand or something... 
Edit:
I think this is my favorite nation:
The Hateful Hating Hated Haters of Hatred
Corporate Police State
Moto:"We Hate You!"

very nice, citizen ;D
dollarpound, nice currency, haha...and The Hateful Hating Hated Haters of Hatred is a pretty intense nation, lol
I have two: Elemdee and Yhamez, Elemdee I tend to go with whatever I feel like picking (sometimes not, though) and Yhamez is all about civil and political freedoms ;)

I liked this line:
The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
