Shifty
 
"Shifty" By Chuck Yeager

 
 
 

Shifty volunteered for the airborne in 
WWII and served with Easy  

Company of the 
506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, part of the 101st  

Airborne Infantry.  If you've seen 
Band of Brothers on HBO or the  

History Channel, you know Shifty.  His character appears in all 10 
 

episodes, and Shifty himself is interviewed in several of them.  
 


I met Shifty in the  Philadelphia airport several years ago. I didn't 
 

know who he was at the time.  I just saw an elderly gent...

caption America

Posted by em on Wednesday, August 10, 2011, In : movies 

  was it a comedy or an action film? beets me! i didn't really like the movie. i'd had high hopes for it and lets just say c.a. did not live up to them! it was cheesy and cliché. not that good or exiting, either. my fav part was  when this kid~ who looked suspiciously like mini ron wesly~ fell of a bridge and cap was about to jump in after him but the kid says, "no im ok! i can swim, see?!" i half expected bucky to pop up out of the snow after falling off a train and go, "its ok! im alive! i...

cowboys and aliens

Posted by em on Friday, August 5, 2011, In : movies 
yee-haw! (did i spell that right?) cowboys and aliens was a movie i had low expectations for. it seemed that a western would clash with the modern taste of sy-fy flicks. boy, was i wrong! the two types blend together in a scary, sexy, exhilarating, and bloody story. the alines were, in my opinion, scary as hell- but not to the point were you cant bare to look at the screen at all. i snuck a glance every now and then until i was no longer shocked and horrified by there appearance. my dad screa...

Forever

Posted by em on Saturday, July 30, 2011, In : books 

 this book sires is the definition of sappy. there is hardly any action or thrills. the font color is disorienting, i prefer black instead of red, thank you very much! its a sweet love story, but the ending was predictable like all love stories, i mean, come on people! we all knew that grace and sam would end up together! this may just be because i hate lovey-dovey stuff. if you like that then this book is for you, but if your like me you'll be better off searching an author like james patter...

Posted by em on Saturday, July 30, 2011, In : movies 
i love the HP sires and i'm sure you do to. i'm happy/sad that its over. they did an awesome job on the movie. the special-effects blew my mind, literally! hahaha! a girl dressed up as harry and dyed her hair rainbow for the show- and i wasn't even at the midnight showing/premier!!! i walked in to the theater and shouted, "EXPRECTO-PATRONUM!!!" (i think i spelled that semi-close to correct!) i fell in love with the movie, although i was a bit disappointed that they didn't go in to dumbuldor's...

maximum ride: the movie!!!

Posted by m on Sunday, June 26, 2011, In : book/movie 
the cast is still nothing more then a roomer, but iv done my digging and have come up with some realistic choices. 
 max: saoirse ronan, pretty, but i dont think she'd be a good max. and yeah, its the girl from the lovely bones
 fang: avan jogia, aperently jp hand-picked him. he'd make a decent fang
 iggy: alex pettifer, not my first choice but i guess it'd work
nuge: willow smith, the only reason that girl is famous is because of her dad, what's so special about "whipping your hair back and fort...

priest

Posted by m on Friday, June 24, 2011, In : movies 
i will put it this way: don't bring your kids! i jumped like ten feet in the air when the vamps. popped out. but that aside, it was a great story. the whole conspiracy theory was riveting and complex. unfortunately the movie had the basic "save the girl" plot and the story bored was pretty "wholly/holy" (ha ha!). i enjoyed the fights and the action. i'm getting in line NOW for priest 2!

(NOTE: sorry! something happened with the font and spacing!) my new favorite movie!!! it was amazing!!! the plot was so twisted and surprising. it was choked full of action and fights, if your a horror/action type of person SEASON OF THE WITCH is perfect for you! every seen was a new battle and surprise. the tinniest details were so important it was SOOO EXCITING. its a story of 2 men set with the task of escorting a girl accused of being a which to a land where her fate will be sealed. ...
