Re: The Pacific

Not to hijack the thread, but the boss and I were talking about just that the other night, OD, after watching True Blood on HBO. Doesn't seem like we're interested in much more than what's on HBO. We've got 30 Rock in our Netflix queue and Weeds too just because regular network TV really seems to blow right now... Sorry. Maybe I'll start another thread on this topic. emoticon

Movie looks awesome.

Re: The Pacific

Do any of you guys watch The Office? I really like that one.

My wife's favorite show.
Vet, if you get Netflix, get the BBC version of the Office. It's pretty good, too.

Re: The Pacific

I'm super pumped for The Pacific. Scuff, seeing that you're a well read man, do you have those two books that the series is baSED on? Guadalcanal Diaery and WitMy helmet for a Pillow? If so, I would like to borrow them.

I might subscribe to HBO when this thing is released.

Re: The Pacific

I had both at one time but the ex sold 'em at a flea market years ago. Guadalcanal Diary is a great book. Helmet's okay but not as factual if I remember correctly. If you wanna read up on the Pacific war, find one that covers the island campaigns, starting with Tulagi, then Guadalcanal, Cape Gloucester, Peleliu and on up the chains.

William Manchester's Goodbye, Darkness is an excellent read.
