What movie to rent?

Need some help here. It's hotter than #$@%#@^#%^@, so dear family and I are probably going to rent movies for tonight. Looking for some kind of comedy/adventure show. Must be ok for the kids (7 and 9.) Something along the lines of Indiana Jones, or a (milder) Pirates of the Caribbean, or ... We've s...

Bingo. I seriously doubt that many of the wonder drugs (seriously, no sarcasm) we have today are a result of govt. funding.

If there's really any good science gonna come out of stem cells, private companies will be on it and quick.

Re: Sunscreen for sensitive skin...recommendations...

Hey everyone. My son has horrible bouts with eczema. He had been clear for almost a year then earlier this summer he was all sorts of flared up. So far we've been able to figure out it's likely the sunscreen that is affecting his skin so badly. We've always used the Coppertone Water Babies SPF 45 o...

On a related note... anybody try those things from Sharper Image you wear around your neck? Personal cooling device, or some such?

Welcome MobileTiki, I have to agree that the back porch is the place to hang. The nachos have never disappointed in my 7 visits. Nachos must be a standard item for M'villes. We went to M'Ville Vegas and had the same great nacho experience. Huge, smothered, not badly priced. Only negative is that it...

Your Favorite Chain Restaurant?

First, I'm like a lot of you and when traveling prefer to eat where the locals do, but it's just not always an option.

I'm going to be on the road quite a bit in the next few weeks, and was looking for some suggestions.

So, besides M'Ville locations and CIP's, what chains do you prefer? :D
