I love Seabiscuit. I have a copy of the book, but haven't gotten around to read it yet. It is an incredible story.

I liked the movie, (Seabiscuit). The book was written by someone who has CFS. So, that is why she highlights the impossible struggle, perseverance and success of an unlikely team. I've never been in contact w/ Hildebrand, but I know another writer who has.

It's one of several movies in my collection of German dvds. I like to get my favorites in German to help keep up that skill. Still not as fluent as I want to be, but that's neither here nor there.

That's great. I admire people who can keep up w/ other languages. This has been one of my major intellectual shortcomings, although I am great at English, and I am lucky English happens to be THE language of the era ( ... )
