Yayy!!! Another BG resident! You're the first one I've come across.

Anyway, "Steel Magnolias" is a wonderful movie. My favorite quote you have up there is...

Those are great movies!

Steel Magnolias is my favorite movie of all time. I quote it all the time, not even knowing that I am doing it. Strange, I know.
