Feeling like I just got kicked in the stomach

Ugh. I'm part of an online scrapbooking community and today the topic of Oscar nominations came up. When discussing Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ someone made the comment that you shouldn't make your beliefs known unless you are asked first (paraphrased). She felt that Gibson pushed his beliefs on others. Well, he made a movie, he did not force people to see it. Isn't that part of America? Micheal Moore made his movie about his political beliefs: same thing, he didn't force people to see it. Like it or hate it, many movies made are made to express the director/writer's views. Anyway, it made me feel like I should just move to a commune and keep any and all opinions/beliefs to myself. Sheesh!

On other fronts: it looks like the toilet will need to be replaced. What a pain. So, as soon as I get the W2's from J's employers and do the taxes on TurboTax, efile and get the refund, we'll be off to Lowe's! Such excitement!
