I've always enjoyed it. Right along with Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Miracle on 34th street and It's a Wonderful Life :D I can't believe how much cr@p they're coming up with these days. Gotta stick with the classics ;)

given the creepy cat avatar... not really ;)
My cat, Chance, is not creepy! That picture was taken with a flash and highlights his beautiful eyes. And I have the complete works, original & enhanced versions WofO. The outtakes are kinda interesting as well. I got in trouble with my daughter-in-law for sharing the movie with my grandson when he was 4. Wussy kid had nightmares about those adorable flying monke:pys!
 
1Chance’s pointers are excellent. But you must have a “list.” You know, like a project “list of materials.” A “Top-Ten list,” if you will.

For example, my list of “Twenty Five Reasons Why I’m A Keeper:”

1. None of my appliances are on a porch.
2. I'm a geek. (Geeks are good to have around!)
3. I have an emergency generator that'll run your hair dryer.
4. I've never been arrested.
5. I don't have any pink flamingos in the yard.
6. I can be a friend to your family.
7. I have a pontoon boat, and it runs!
8. I can correctly feed the dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer.
9. I can keep your secrets.
10. I remember the important dates.
11. Your dad can borrow my tools.
12. Your mom can borrow my blender.
13. I am chivalrous and honorable.
14. I don't get drunk with my buddies on the weekends.
15. I don't have any vehicles (working OR broken) parked in the yard.
16. I can fix your computer, your folks computer and your kids computer.
17. I've never been interviewed by Geraldo Rivera.
18. I survived my motorcycle era and probably won't do it again.
19. I will carry the bags when we shop.
20. Public Displays of Affection are cool!!
21. I'll help your kids with their science fair project.
22. I take the cars to a mechanic for service.
23. I'll go to the store to pick up your feminine items.
24. Your daughter can send me to the store for feminine items.
25. I'll check with you when your son sends me to the store for an Xbox-360.

And finally,
26. I'm not running for political office.


Seems to be not working so far… (I'm still single!!)

I'm kinda surprised with all those attributes that you are still single, at least given my knowledge of the Ozarks, that would make you a keeper there!:)

Beenthere could have claimed all but the pontoon boat and the generator (although he had a crazy kerosine heater in case the electricity went out in the winter and a propane "emergency" camp stove and propane lanterns). I'm kind of disappointed--I thought all real men were like this!:confused:
