    I can't believe you saw a real-life acting out of Juno.

    Did Jennifer Garner have sadness at the end -

    All I could think is those kids went home and were like, "those people sucked".

    do you think the parents make them leave the door open when they are in one another's bedroom now? what's done is done.

    I decided while this was happening that anyone I marry would have to be happy to sit there until we figured out what was going on. lol

    good lord! who would have that kind of meeting at Borders?! i would definitely have that sort of meeting in the privacy of a Starbucks inside a Barnes and Noble. sheesh. what's with people these days?
  • Brian · 2 months ago
    I'd have it at Best Buy so I could spot-check dad on his video game and pop culture knowledge. For some reason that part of the whole thing bothered me. lol

    Nice jeans.

    I thought Nick Cannon was married to Mariah - since when does he have "talent" -
  • Brian · 2 months ago
    The two ladies were fascinated by his marriage to Mariah Carey - I could do an entire separate post about them.

    btw their names were Ruth and Muriel.
  • [redacted] · 2 months ago
    Ruth and Muriel Begins - love it.

    Brian Spaeth, did they say each others' names constantly like everyone on TV does even when there's only one other person in the room - thanks for your response Brian Spaeth.

    Yes, and they talked really loud and were reading Oprah magazine.
  • [redacted] · 2 months ago
    This just gets better and better. Are they in Oprah's book club too -

    The screaming kid @ 3 y.o. in my bookstore just kept going "AAAACK" and his mother would laugh and pat him on the head and her friend would laugh too. I did not hear their names, but I'm sure Ruth, Muriel, and the Juno gang could have handled the situation.

    They should've gone to Chuck E. Cheese. 'za, games...noise.

    Customer satisfaction and pricing are the two things that consumers worry most about so my top two secret meeting locations are as follows

    Burger King: so I could end every sentence with...."your way, right away." - Customer satisfaction wouldn't be an issue

    Next up would be Subway...."home of the $5 footlong". Although, I'm unsure if kids are more than a foot long when they are born? - Letting them know the price early on.

    I hated Juno. Despised it. With a passion. Turned it off after I heard the word "homeslice" one too many times.

    Brian, I really would like your opinion on the Android from Verizon and its "iDon't" campaign.
  • Brian · 2 months ago
    Interesting about that ad - it's a Motorola ad, not Verizon.

    I think I'm going to end up with like 3 phones before this is all over. mmh

    Man... I frequent Barnes and Noble for the free internet connection while reading the latest manga (Cheap bastard that I am) and nothing like this ever happens to me! I'm jelous... of those jeans... and the event ;)
  • Colleen Burns · 2 months ago
    the sad thing is...im more offended by the Nick Cannon discussion. And you TOTALLY should have went and introduced yourself into both convos...sounds like they would adore your book/thoughts ;o)

    OMG, just saw this! Is this separate from the 'dude-on-the-phone-who-I-told-you-to-do-the-Bruce Willis-head-turn' incident? Do you live at Borders?
  • Brian · 2 months ago
    No but I've been going there a lot to write lately - it's been full of amazing.
  • AmyLaurel · 2 months ago
    You're homeless! I worked it out. Do you need a few bucks? What are the people at the table closest to you saying right now?! lol
