The answer to that being clearly "No."
To J.T.: What Sherlock Holmes novel would you recomend to someone who wants to read Holmes but found Hound of the Baskervilles to be the most boring thing she ever read before finding Ordinary People?

Hm. Not so much the full novels/collections, but rather specific tales. To wit, "A Scandel in Bohemia" (one of the flagship Holmes stories and one of the few where Holmes comes out on the losing end), "The Musgrave Ritual" (Wherein Holmes tells Watson of one of his earlier adventures from before the two men met), or "The Abbey Grange" (Perhaps my personal favorite Holmes story of all, because it exemplifies Holmes' willingness to put Justice ahead of the Law.)
They can be found in "Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", "Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes", and "Return of Sherlock Holmes", respectively. (Though I have all of those, plus "Hound" in "The Original Illustrated Sherlock Holmes", which itself lacks only "A Study In Scarlet", "Sign of the Four" and "Valley of Fear", the other three full-length novels in addition to "Hound".)
Does that help?

Apparently not.
What movie do you hope there is never a sequel to?

The Land Before Time (ANOTHER one), anything by M. Night Shamalon (sp?), and any Grade-C (for crap) horror movie.
Have you ever been offended by a line that really shouldn't offend anyone? (Example; "Personally, I kinda want to slay the dragon." -- Angel, "Angel".)

Nope. Not yet.
Who would be better to play Lupin III in a live action film: Sacha Baron Cohen or Jim Carey?

Jim Carey. The jaws match.
Since I had that freakout earlier, how about this?
Who would be best to play Yusuke in a Live Action film?

I'm thinking someone like Matt or Jeff Hardy...
Yes, wrestlers. You may laugh all you wish. With the 'high-flying' fighting styles of anime characters like Yusuke and Ranma, that's probably who would be best at it.
Should I be concerned that Jessica thinks Angel (of "Buffy" and "Angel" fame) reminds her of me?

Maybe just a bit.
And who? I've never heard of those guys.

The Hardy Boys from WWF/WWE - Former-Tag Team Champions, (in)famous for their acrobatics in the ring. ...Er, I haven't watched in a while, check Wikipedia.
Would it be wrong, cruel, warped, or what if, in a few 'seasons' Jon died and came back as a vampire?

It'd be an insult to the vampires.
Why?

Hm. No reason. Angel's been on in the mornings before work and it's corrupting my innocent little mind...
Have I yet mentioned that I have an idea of why Jon might start to change sides?

Kinda, but you didn't say why.
So... why?

He's dying.
Cliche, innit?

That's... kinda lame, actually.
Unless he's dying because I'm hacking him to tiny bits. That won't be lame.

Unfortunately, no.
Remember how it turned out that he wasn't just dating other girls, but sleeping with them when he was supposed to have been dating you?
Well, appearently through either those or later events he's contracted A.I.D.S. and it's killing him slowly...
Actually, it doesn't sound as good on 'paper' as it did in my head, so just forget about it. File it with the other stupid ideas I've had for the series that just don't work for it all.
Great in the head, sucks written out... don't you HATE it when that happens?
