Rosalie,

I cannot answer for our Mr. Bob, but I think he was taken aback by the ABRUBT removal of his post and at least one other in Forum Feedback.

I would have been anyway.

I'm still steaming over the whole MISUNDERSTANDING.

if it's the same Meyers who was in "the spy who shagged me", then i'm surprised it even got close to missing it!

Hey Bob,

WELCOME to SE. That is, I don't recall ever seeing a post by you here.

I'm sure some well read person will be by by and by to explain exactly what you meant by your post.

In short, the movie was a disappointment.
by r. proffitt Forum moderator Nov 21, 2003 12:18PM PST

The Cat in the Hat missed it potential. The Meyers influence was undeniable and IMO should have been put in a box. The reason for the post is simple. Rarely would I complain about anything, but I would not, could not see this with a fox. Not in a box, neither here not there. Dr. Suess should have been set loose.

As to the deletion in the Forum Feedback, it was an interesting Thing 1. Thing 2 explained it well. In other words, Lee explained it and we move on.

If you do see this movie, tell me what you thought of it.

And howdy Ros.

Bob

Hi Ian,

I think he means "miracle" with an interesting pronunciation. Happy
