Figures.  Philadelphia has frequently been called the junk-food 
capital of the country--dare we say, the world?

On another note, I finally saw the HP movie ad that ran during 
Friends on Thursday night.  (We tape anything on in prime time that 
we want to watch because we're busy with the kids; we watch after 
they're in bed.  It's amazing that we watched Thursday stuff on 
Friday night, as we're usually several days behind.)  

ANYWAY, did anyone besides me (and my husband) think the flying 
sequences looked cheesy and like they were produced about forty years 
ago?  I'm surprised they look like this when there are such 
sophisticated special effects being done in the movies these days.  
I'm hoping that I'm wrong about how this will look on a big screen, 
and it was just the effect from it being scrunched into our pitiful 
19" television screen...
