He might be referring to your peculiar blend of pomposity and cowardice. 😛
Pomposity and cowardice? That's a pompous and cowardly thing to say in light of anonymity. I don't need to prove a thing to you or your buddy divegeester.

Indeed now we know he's not a "movie junkie" or a book junkie, as if enjoying (good) movies and books is a shame..........
It is said a threefold cord is not easily broken. Apparently the three of you have nothing better to do with your time than to heap ridicule.
Originally posted by josephwI don't think so. It's just my opinion. It's based on your posting record. You have also expressed candid opinions about me and my posting record. It's all good, josephw. Anonymity has nothing to do with it. 😉

IF you happen to be refering to what I said about not being a Movie Junkie. Where did I say there was any shame in it? I just said I was not a Movie Junkie, and had not read the book, thats it!

I speak the language, but anyone can tell you my grammar and spelling aren't always great. I never thought being called a Movie Junkie was an insult, just a fact. Some can tell you about movies from back in the 60's, 70's and who starred in them. Now calling someone a "Junkie" wouldn't be nice. Usually refers to drugs.
I certainly couldn't do that. Once Andy told me what Dive was talking about. It all came back to me. I really should have gotten that one. I had actually watched that movie, thought it was a great movie. One Jack Nicholsons best performances in my opinion.

on this one we agree, it is a grat movie indeed, maybe one of the rare cases in which the movie competes with the book thanks to the extraordinary interpretation of Nicholson.
