    Microserfs should be required reading at birth....

    But Couplands best is Girlfriend in a coma.

    Shampoo Planet didnt hold my attention thought sad.gif

    Maybe I just have a short attention spa... HEY LOOK A BUTTERFLY!

    Microserfs will be a great movie, but as Girlfriend In A Coma eclipses it, so too would that movie. It just has so much potential in the hands of the right man. If Doug Liman and Davaid Finkcher got together to make that book into a movie- I don't know what might happen.
    Shampoo Planet wasnt so good. But I think we may have been too young to appreciate it. I'm trying to get a copy so we can re-read it andy. As for polaroids- what better way to spend a weekend than watching the a-team and browsing thru those stories!
