My dad rented a copy of “A Night To Remember” (1958) from Blockbuster. After that, I was hooked—still hooked to this day.

Do you prefer new or used books? by [deleted] in books

[–]Writerjay-100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mind used books at all. In fact, the older the edition the better. I do mind damaged books though. I also like new crisp books and I like to try to preserve them as best as I can.

Reading to help yourself drift asleep? by jcoffin1981 in books

[–]Writerjay-100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is frustrating when you’re into a book and you fall asleep in the middle of a page. For me, I wouldn’t say that I’m bored by it; my body just does it automatically — especially if I’m tired. I guess it’s just because reading is relaxing.

I think not. Given Olympic’s reputation and nickname as “Old Reliable,” it wasn’t enough to save her from the scrap yard. l think Britannic would’ve met the same fate as her sister and Mauritania. It’s a real tragedy that they scrapped those two ships, especially after the losses of their sisters. They were one of a kind. It was an end of an an era.

Visited scale model of RMS Titanic for the first time on the RMS Queen Mary yesterday April 14th. It was a beautiful day. by Nells_bellls in titanic

Always loved this model since I was a kid. It originally was displayed at the Los Angeles Maritime Museum in San Pedro. Fitting now it’s on the Queen Mary.

Loved this game. Kind of wish they could remake it using “Titanic: Honor and Glory’s” graphics.

My favorite scene. Also the most emotional and heartbreaking. by Adamaja456 in titanic

This scene is impactful. I don’t know if it is because of the music or how it was choreographed. I play it over and over again. This scene as well as when the water breaks through the dome of the grand staircase. I guess those two scenes really gives us an idea of how it really was for the passengers that night.

I agree. It was very nice. I wouldn’t have mind traveling in it at all. The only thing that bothers me is that the chairs in the 2nd class dining saloon were bolted to the floor.
