The Oscars?

Did anyone watch them last night? There were a few surprises I think. I was happy to see Martin Scorsese win for the Departed (one of the two films I had actually seen). Poor Peter O'Toole looked very disappointed. As for Jennifer Hudson, I haven't seen Dreamgirls, so I can't speak to her performances Oscar worthiness. What a voice though! And Happy Feet over Cars? I don't think so.

An Oscar Contest

Hello everyone! I hope you all are gearing up to knit some socks next month. I'm dithering over a couple colorway choices for RPM's.

In the meantime, my regular blog is celebrating it's second blogiversary. I'm celebrating with running an Oscar scorecard contest. Pop on over to my blog for details. Throw your hat in the ring for a fibery prize!

Can't Wait to Get Running!!



I am excited about the KAL in March. What a fabulous idea!! And socks...who can resist socks. I'm going to knit the RPM's in STR color way Hot Flash. I thought a yarn with the word flash in it is appropriate for running. :) Can't wait to see what everyone else is planning.

Love, Actually

I have a few links up on the sidebar, or will soon. I'm looking forward to seeing this movie again. Hopefully many of you will too.

Also, in about a week or so, I will be posting some buttons for those of you who wish to participate in our March pairing of movie and pattern (Run Lola Run and Logan's Run with RPM or Jaywalker socks). When they are posted, feel free to take one, just safe on your own computer.

I hope people are still enjoying FiberFlix! I am, although lately it's been rather quiet. People are busy, though. I'm the first person to understand that!

The New Blogger

Hello everyone. I finally was able to move this blog over to the new blogger. I hope this will smooth out the problems that many were having in terms of posting. Let me know if you're having problems using the blog, and I'll do my best to help.

I love Lion in Winter

I just finished watching it last night and really enjoyed it. The acting is superb and the dialogue is wonderful. I got a kick out of seeing a very young Timothy Dalton in his very first film role as well. Did anyone else get a chance to see it?

I posted a few discussion topics about the movie over at our message boards. Feel free to stop by and discuss.

A final note, there's been a lot of discussion about the new blogger and trying to migrate group blogs over to the new blogger. I've tried to move Fiberflix, but keep getting told that I can't. So, I'm sorry to say, we will continue to limp along here until blogger makes it so that this blog and other group blogs can move over. If you are a member of the group and are having trouble posting either here or on the message boards, let me know and we'll try to work out a way for you to post.
