Huge backyard but no fence...what dog breed would be good?

exactly the reason our dogs are indoors. A PITA to keep the house clean but much better then invisible fence IMO. There's kids and other dogs in the neighborhood, plus where I live the stupid Neighborhood Association has a no-fences rule anyway. My mom got lucky with her dog though. It's a...

LOTR:ROTK review thread. Warning SPOILERS could show up.

Everything I expected it to be. I didn't mind the ending as that's part of the story. I don't think the "intention" of the hobbit ending is the homo-erotic at all. It's just how they are---deeply caring simple creatures. If those were humans acting that way, then yes, it would have been very...

I like Jim Carey's comedies not including the Cable Guy. The movie had it's funny parts, but not worth the full DVD price IMO. I liked Liar Liar much better.
