who I am
I'm MaryAnn Johanson: writer and ponderer in New York City who drinks too much wine and thinks way too much about such inconsequences as movies, TV, books, and the meaning of life.

Congratulations
You just spent ten-thousand bucks
To watch the same crap.
That wasn't directed at you so much as anybody who brags about their plasma screens! Happy New Year!

Well, my LCD widescreen is an absolute delight. I love it every time I pop a DVD into the upconverting DVD player.

I've had a plasma TV since 2000... I was pretty much the first person here in Charlotte to have one. I wish it had cost only $10K. As it stands, I spent so much on mine that I am pretty much obliged to use it (and not replace it with something better that costs one-fifth as much) until it dies.
It ain't easy (or cheap) to live on the bleeding edge, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Thought you might be interested in this. Looks like the WGA strike might bite the studios in the ass a bit harder than they thought.

Your link, she no work, JSW.

That's odd. Anyway, here's the URL: http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,,2232935,00.html

MaryAnn, you got a mention by Scott Weinberg on RT. Isn't that sweet? :)

Is there any chance that you'll get featured in the 'Meet a Critic' section one day?

You'd have to ask Rotten Tomatoes about that.
It didn't work because you need to put quotation marks around the URL when you use the "a href=" syntax to create a link.
