A while back I decided to sign up for the popular online video rental website Netflix. I was a bit leary about paying $20 a month because I wasn’t sure how quickly they would deliver the movies. Well, I’m very happy I signed up. Since they have shipping facilities all over, it only takes about 24 hours for them to receive a dvd that I send back, and another 24 hours to receive a new one. I average about 20 rentals a month. This would cost about $100 if I were to rent that many movies in a regular video store. I’m very happy with Netflix. I only wish that I would have signed up sooner.

Julia Roberts’ little niece Emma Roberts is really the perfect choice to play “Nancy Drew” in the upcoming movie. She may be young but she’s like an old soul with her acting skills. I remember owning oodles and oodles of Nancy Drew crime solving books. I even had dreams that I was like her too when I was younger. It will be truly rewarding to see how Emma plays this out.
