Ultimately, like any other word, “brother” has a subjective meaning and is therefore variable between individuals. However, we should remember the power that the word can have and use it more sparingly and appropriately. Brotherhood or sisterhood isn’t about shared genetics, simply spending a certain amount of time together, sharing similar interests, or mutual inspiration. It’s only about all those things until it’s about none of those things. Know what I mean broth–err friend...
...actually a stock broker there. Painted from the start as “the good guy” in a depraved world full of cut-throats and egotists, Fielding is dating the lovely Beth Vest (Alexis Bledel of “Gilmore Girls” and “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants”). Bryan Greenberg (“One Tree Hill”) is Daniel Seaver, the nerdy yet hunky computer guy at the brokerage firm whom Tommy gives a shot at a real finance...
Perhaps Elin Nordegren Woods, the newest member of the Spurned Sisterhood, could take a few pages from the soon-to-be-ex Mrs. Sanford's playbook.

In the book, the crucial scene between Bella and Edward in the school parking lot happens on a snow day, but snow is expensive. "So the snow became the rain. And then I had to cut the rain out and show...
...prevarication, anti-religion romantic comedy, earned a modestly encouraging $7.4 million. Moore's docu-frolic Capitalism: A Love Story just about equaled the opening for his previous screed, Sicko, by banking a conservative $4,850,000. That number tied the reported earnings for Whip It, the roller-derby sisterhood comedy directed by Barrymore. All three star directors have carpeted the TV talk-show circuit lately, but none could lure many paying customers. Then again, they couldn't match the break that Zombieland caught on Oct. 1, when Harrelson was the first guest after David Letterman told his sextortion story...
