I tried to move my posts, but it wasn&#8217;t very cooperative. The new blog is at http://the5thdecade.blogspot.com/. I&#8217;m also going to try to post more often.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=5thdecade.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2633864&amp;post=98&amp;subd=5thdecade&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I loved the Nancy Drew books as a 12 (or so) year old. Read them all. So I decided to watch the movie on DVD.  Really, really corny. Now I&#8217;m thinking about going back and reading one of the books again to see if it was as corny. Or if the movie just didn&#8217;t translate.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=5thdecade.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2633864&amp;post=68&amp;subd=5thdecade&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
