Monkey: Is that the one you wrote about in "pet peeves"? For me a bad read or movie is like you keep hoping it will get better and then get to the end and wonder why you wasted your time.
So that is why I started reading the beginning and then the end and decided if I wanted to read the middle. And with movies, if it really looks like it isn't going anywhere then I just stop watching.
Chii: it ended up rainign pretty heavy through the night into the morning, so I guess we got the rain after all!
