John Scalzi at Whatever is asking his readers to name the moments, watching movies, when they were laughing so hard they nearly lost control of their bodily functions.
The comments are a great trip down memory lane if you like funny movies. I left a comment of my own regarding Dr. Strangelove. (A less-highbrow movie that I remember had me nearly wetting my pants the first time I saw it was Office Space. No movie before or since, I am sure, has made more effective use of gangsta rap in the soundtrack.)
I still haven't seen Little Miss Sunshine, and must make a mental note to rectify that. There's Something About Mary, too.
i am thoroughly enjoying browsing through your blog...you are the first person i've encountered whose wt. loss is so close to my pattern (even the numbers on ht. & wt.'s) thank you so much for putting it out there. this past dec. i passed the 4.5 yr. mark of my loss.
one thing that i cannot believe i did not consider in the process was what you wrote..."asked God to remove all attachment to food that wasn't the Eucharist." but you can bet that i have added that to my daily prayers this very week! thank you!!

Thanks for posting! Wow, 4.5 years -- it's nice to hear from someone who's kept it off that long. Sometimes it's daunting to imagine the years going by and still having to be so vigilant.
You have a lovely blog too!
