You were right to reprint this. You are such an eloquent writer, but I don't know how you could surpass the emotion that pervades this entire piece. When you said that you realized that Stand By Me is one of those movies that only comes along once in a generation that also applies to writing about your feelings that day. You could never recreate them without making them hallow. Thank you so much for sharing something so special to you. You moved me to tears.

I was so sad that Eureka was moved to Mondays because that is the night I have class. Luckily last night was the beginning of a month-long break for me so I got to watch the episode as it aired! You were great on the show and I'm so excited about your character having a larger role on the show. I was so excited to see Stan Lee as well. You should see me try to explain all the cool people on Eureka last night to people who have no idea. Btw, my mom has always been a huge fan of Star Trek: TNG and when I told her that you are Wesley Crusher she replied, "If he shaved the beard he'd still have a cute baby face."

I just want to say how incredible it is that you actually comment back to people. It's nice to see that the you continue the conversation so people know that their comments aren't ignored. Whether or not you comment to a person at least they know that what they had to say mattered to you.
