So I asked her to marry me...

Surely the name Cub is losing its meaning? You'll have to reconsider to something like Pappa Bear or Cub The Old Bear.

Whatever you decide, congratulations :)
Cub the Old Bear brings strange images to mind which should remain hidden from existence.

In other news, extended congratulations! Excellant news towards a good guy who truly deserves it!

Congrats, Cub! :)
congratulations :) , I hope some day I may propose


And as for the book! I just finished reading it a few days ago, and came here for the first time in a long time, and this was the first thread that I clicked on. I was completely shocked to see you mention the book Watership Down.

I actually started reading this thread and when I saw you mention her being a bunny, I instantly thought of the book, and to my surprise, a few sentences later you mentioned the book. It's due back to the library tomorrow, and it is my favorite book now. I actually just bought the movie on DVD, which is an old british adaption from '78. If you haven't seen it I should warn you it is very graphic and disturbing, But still a classic and one of my favorites. It does change quite a few details from the book, but the opening two scenes were quite my favorite.

But goodness, Hazel, Fiver, I want to go read it again.


and since no one else seemed to acknowledge it, I have to say that I'd definitely recommend reading this book! It may sound boring, but it was a huge shock to me considering I haven't read a good book in a while. This may sound cliche, but I couldn't put it down in the final acts.

I couldn't agree more! It's now my all time favourite!

My Fiancé is reading it at the moment and is about half way through. She's loving it. I also bought the film a few days after reading the book, but I promised her I would wait until she finished the book first so we can watch it together. It will probably make us both cry... I cried in the book a couple of times. I know, a bit of a softy really.

But what an amazing set of coincidences that lead you here at that exact moment, and thank you for posting! I think I may have to re-read the book again soon... you know it's a good one when you genuinely miss the companionship of the characters when you've finished.

-Cub. =o)
I haven't read the book, but I do remember the film. I have it on dvd somewhere.

Good film.

That book was featured in Donny Darko =)

Saw the trailer for that film. Looks messed up and creepy.

Rotoscope is so cool. Lord of the Rings/A Scanner Darkly anyone?

Congratulations, Cub!
