I love he Seven Up series! We had to watch a few episodes for our human development psych class, and I was hooked. I ended up borrowing the rest of the series from my professor and watching the whole thing. I, too, am a huge documentary fan.

Have you seen Spellbound? Or Dogtown and the Z-Boys?

Agnes Varda has a very nice doumentary about junk.. The Gleaners.

Check your emails.

Guys and Dolls... it's a BBC Documentary. It's extremely weird.

Can't beat the south for warmth, but sometimes it gets way too warm. If the doomsayers of global warming are right, Montreal will be the next Miami.

Sounds like you're having fun. I'm doing ok. Documentaries are interesting. I still need to see Jesus Camp.

did you ever see the children underground......sad stuff

I'm completely jealous you've watched all the 7up series. It's on the list.

I love the 7up series. My dad turned me on to it. I have not seen the latest one, but I'd like to. One of the best documentaries I've seen recnently is Who Killed the Electric Car? I actually found it on cable pay per view. It is from a few years back; but it is about how California tried electric cars and then the car companies forcibly took them back from many adoring and reluctant leasers. Very worth watching. Another recommendation, though not a documentary film is a book I read last summer: Gone Tomorrow: The Hidden Life of Garbage by Heather Rogers. Well written and fascinating account of how garbage has been dealt with in America since the 19th century to the present and many scary things the public doesn't realize about landfills and corporate management of garbage today. Transition warning. BTW -- Zak, you rock!

Thanks for the advice on the poem in Urban Poetry Cafe.

Have you ever seen '...If'? I watched it last night. It's a puzzle. I am dying to hear others' thoughts.
