![]() Normal $9.98 For a made for television low-budget movie, the actors wrung a lot of truth out of a story that may or may not have reflected the actual physical process of a man becoming a woman. The reason the movie was made was because of the tabloid appeal of the main idea. The portrayals of middle American people was more accurate than most of us would like to imagine. They are frightened of anything new, programmed to hate at the drop of an epithet and betray the fact that our educational system is more about entrenched teacher cadres than about awakening any pursuit of truth and knowledge. I don't like to think that we are really that close to the "My Name is Earl" mentality, but I think that we are. ![]() TransGeneration $29.95 The content of this DVD was both open and straightforward; easy to follow and understand the 'difficulties faced by both the individual and their family.' ![]() Ticket to Ride $59.99 For anyone who is not a "Gamer" the name "Ticket to Ride" doesn't really mean anything beyond a Beatles song. However if you mention it in Europe and many other parts of the world you might get a very different reaction. About a year ago I got interested in Board Games and after much research I found that Ticket to Ride was always mentioned as the Most Popular Game on all the gaming websites. They call it a "Gateway Game", which means it is a Euro game that will appeal to non gamers, but at the same time it is a good enough game that gamers like to play it as well. I was still a bit hesitant to buy it as I am not a big "Train" person. But after reading many many reviews, I realized that this game must be something really good and I broke down and ordered it. I can tell you that anytime anyone wants to play Ticket to Ride now I am always ready to play. It doesn't take long to learn how to play, but it is one of those games that you learn new stratgies as you play it. Ticket to Ride is usually my first choice now to introduce non gamers to Euro-style games. I have yet to meet anyone who didn't like playing Ticket to Ride. I think if a poll was taken throughout the world, Ticket to Ride would probably be #1 even though it is not well known in the US. Once you play it you won't want to go back to playing Monopoly.... there really is no comparison... they are on two different levels. Do yourself a favor and get this game and see for yourself. ![]() Soldier's Girl $14.98 This movie is an incredible true story that bogles my mind that it happened! How could this be? It is a worthwhile movie absolutely. Watch it and you to will probably cry! |
