Unfortunately, Obsession doesn’t yet have a U.S. distributor (imagine that) but I found that the director’s cut can now be ordered on DVD at the Obsession, the Movie website. The film plainly distinguishes between Muslims and terrorists, noting that not every Muslim … Continue reading →

A home should be clean enough to be healthy but messy enough to be happy. An immaculate home is the sign of a dull woman (or a great cleaning lady!). Home is where your heart is, even if it’s not always where your head is. There’s no place like home, except Grandma’s house! Things You’d Like to Say to the Repairman How much?
