  • Motel 6 is pretty cheap, and they are everywhere, and reliably clean.

  • Before you head out I would have a complete tune-up and oil change. Make sure that the pressure of your tires is what it should be, and have the brakes evaluated. Have all of the fluid levels checked. If you are going over the Rockies, turn off…

  • I've driven across country 7 or 8 times, and there's not much I can add. I highly recommend driving no longer than 8 hours before switching to a driver that has slept- not one that has been a passenger watching you drive. Other than that, I think …

  • I think of myself as an early adopter. I won't be getting one of those Archos things. I can barely stand to watch a letterboxed movie on my iBook. I can imagine how much fun it would be to watch one on that screen. I got an iPod mini (I had th…

  • I always thought "The Shining" had a great opening credit sequence (and one of the first big movies to use the stedicam to great effect)
    in Best movie title graphics Comment by tmp July 2004
  • Yes, I saw it. I really liked it. It doesn't go where you think it's going to go, and isn't mean-spirited about any of the characters. I'll be interested to see the footage added for the wide release.
