"I'll be right ... here"
Most of the time I exist here in the midst of America feeling like I don't belong. I have always felt this way, and as a child I think it was even more pronounced because children are unable to surround themselves with people who are like them. You live where your family lives, you go to the local school - you don't really understand that you don't fit in because your politics are radical (for America) and your spirituality is radical (for America) because you have no frame of reference for such things.
Last night I saw E.T. with my son and that experience was manufactured for ME. Baby, I belonged! ET came out the summer I turned 9 years old. Spielberg, being a master of emotional manipulation, stole my heart with that movie, along with probably every other kid of my generation. To take my 2 year old son to see it twenty years later, listen to him say, "E.T.... E.T." as E.T. first starts to talk, gasp as bicycles become supernatural flying machines and get nervous as Elliot's home is invaded by government scientists was a tremendously satisfying experience.
All of the kids in E.T. were great actors. Drew Barrymore was especially beloved for her role in it, but the actors who played her brothers were really wonderful too.
I imagine that Harry Potter will be the E.T. of kids today.

And how exactly did you keep him away from the Reeses Pieces? -t
The truth is that ET was shot down by a Russian missle and didn't make it back. The movie is part of an antichrist conspiracy to start the worship of flying bicycles as a means of reaching ones Shangrila.
I know my uncle didn't just write that. But this raises an interesting question, do jewish people believe in an anti-christ? And if the anti-christ did come to earth wouldn't he ride a Harley?
Tyson, click on the e-mail - there aren't too many people in this world names bubba with bulloc as part of the e-mail address. Jewish people do not believe in an anti-christ since they do not believe in christ. They are still waiting for the Messiah to come. As far Harley's - I will let your Uncle respond to that.Love, Mom
WOW! I'm am blown away by this. Hi bubba! i really didn't think that that was you. Such talk of conspiracies out of the mouth of a Bullock! I am proud and impressed and shocked all at the same time. I hope you're not offended by the fact that I didn't think that was you, I just never imagined. It actually has an air of brilliance to it now knowing that it came from you! Hope all is well with you and for christ's or anti-christ's sake...BUY YOURSELF A HARLEY! You've earned it! Love ya, Tyson
I am so glad you took Aidan to see E.T. I remember when we all went to see it & we all loved it! I still think it is one of my favorite movies. I have it, so when you are here, let's watch it again! Love, Kay
