I know all hospitals are haunted with their spirit populations all over the place, but this particular ward seems to be spookier than my old ward!!

NEWS FLASH! NEWS FLASH!Originally posted by Rhonda:Oh, MG, I seriously miss Pepperidge Farm's Cinnamon Swirl Bread.
And I have a huge craving for Krispy Kreme doughnuts!
And yes, have a yearning for Popeye's too... but can go to Changi Airport's Terminal 1 for that! Everytime I eat Popeye's, I'm immediately transported to my short but very happy days there.

I'm an expert at eating without placing the plate / bowl on any table / surface but balancing it on one hand, chopsticks / cutlery on the other hand.
I don't do proper sit-down dinners at home... I'd usually be watching TV or surfing the web at the same time. I used to sit down at the dinner table and eat whilst reading the newspaper / mags, but that was like donkey years ago liao!

Yup. Imported the Japanese DVD of it when it was released there, and also acquired the US release with the faulty Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack!Originally posted by Rhonda:Oh, nevermind... I did a google on Olympus AND anime and found it!
That anime was Appleseed, and the term was 'bioriods'.
That looked really impressive, with awesome colours. Would love to watch Appleseed now! Hey, MG... have you watched it yet? Who has? -
Thing is, I've had TWO encounters at this new ward... and I've only been there for a short while.Originally posted by Fatum:well ... you're afraid of what you don't know .....
just see them for what they are .... departed people, formerly just like you and me .... and you'll have no fear ....
I never believed in stuff like that until weird stuff happened to me in my old ward.
I try not to think about it, or I'll ignore 'it' when I realise its presence, but it's still very unnerving! -
i've got Appleseed somewhere in the room

Man Eats 19 Grilled Cheeses in 10 Minutes
Oct 8, 6:52 PM (ET)
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Ed "Cookie" Jarvis of Long Island, N.Y., clearly won the grilled cheese-eating championship at the Arkansas State Fair on Saturday, stuffing down 19 sandwiches in the 10-minute contest.
Patrick Philbin of Moonachie, N.J., came in second, scarfing down a sandwich-and-a-half less than champion Jarvis. But third place was too close to call. Two contestants consumed 10 grilled cheeses in the 10 minutes allowed, and the judges had to call for a one-minute runoff. With 11 1/2 sandwiches in his belly, Michael Finnell of Sherwood, Ark., was declared the third-place winner.
All six contestants finished without getting sick, said Michael Castellano of the International Federation of Competitive Eating.
Little Rock was the 11th city on the 15-city circuit of the GoldenPalace.com World Grilled Cheese-Eating Championship. GoldenPalace.com, an online casino, and the federation are sponsoring the event.
For his big appetite and swallowing skills, Jarvis won $1,000. He will join other first-place winners in competing for the world championship title at a time and place to be determined later.

Depends on what you're looking for. If you're after pure eye candy done with state-of-the-art CGI, Appleseed has it in droves. The action sequences will leave you breathless and drooling.Originally posted by Rhonda:Well, how would you rate the anime? Think you'll recommend it?
However, if you're looking for a coherent and plausible storyline, you might be better off looking elsewhere. The movie is supposedly based on a long-running manga by author and artist Masumune Shirow, and the movie doesn't have the time to cover much of the background material presented in the manga. Bereft of this introductory material, the casual viewer will be left in the dark about the motives of many of the principal characters in the movie.
