At its launch, Profiles was immediately one of may favorite features and I clearly recall the “Oh my God, this is awesome” moment when I learned about it. My discovery of the feature coincided with my girlfriend moving in with me. The process of becoming acclimated to living together was eased by her ability to watch a seemingly endless stream of “Desperate Housewives” episodes in quick succession while I took my time with “A History of Violence” and “Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior”. We still live together and it would be only a small exaggeration to say that this feature played a small role in the fact that we will be getting married one month from today.
Perhaps you read this and think it is time that I be prepared to share everything, including my movie queue, with the future Mrs. Dicker. You may have a point; she is the love of my life and sharing is what marriage is about. But isn’t it enough that I’ve offered to teach her stick shift so she can drive my BMW? I’m taking dance lessons for the wedding. Can’t you let me hang on to this one little bit of my bachelorhood? I love her more than words, but despite being from Texas, she just isn’t a “No Country for Old Men” kind of gal.
