no! not another sequelled out sequel...i love the indiana jones films, but another one would be too much.
I also like your blog b/c it lets me know you're still alive, and that the more you change, the more you stay the same. Good to see Harrison Ford is something we'll always have. :)

From Jayne: My friends, Harrison Ford just keeps getting better and better. The Indy movies are all good, and it is my hope this one will be also. :-)
The Remains of the Day is an awesome book.
And if you liked the new Sabrina, you should see the classic one, with Humphrey Bogart, Audrey Hepburn and William Holden. One of my favorites!
Oh, The Joy Luck Club makes me cry each time I close it. Maybe I was a Chinese woman in past life? I'm not cheap enough and don't spit, but still..... ;-)
To serve a kick serve, think that the ball has a mohawk and your are chopping the the back part of the mohawk off with your racket. The motion also involves fanning the ball away... that may or may not make sense. Your grip matters too. The knuckle of your index finger must be aligned with the sides of the racket, not the face as most people try to hold it. Good luck.
