I really wish the general library-going public would learn the difference between anime and manga.

Conversations at the library:

Patron: I'm sorry, I just keep staring at the color of your sweater. I don't know why you look good in that color.

Me: ...thank you?

Sometimes, I think that people just really don't listen to what's coming out of their mouths.

So, I have a coworker who's trying to come up with some movies to play at the library in December that are winter-but-not-Christmas movies. The requirements are that they not contain Santa or Jesus but that they do contain at least one scene with snow in it.

This afternoon, while discussing it with one of our other coworkers (who is a film buff and helps run the library movie night every month), we could only come up with movies that were a) really bleak, b) wholly inappropriate for showing at the library, or c) both. ("Ginger Snaps 3 has snow in it," I said. "Let the Right One In is full of snow," movie buff coworker said. "Ooh, we could watch The Thing!" I said. "And The Shining!" he said. "There's The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," I said, "except that contains both Santa and Jesus.")

Can any of you think of any happy movies with snow but with neither Santa nor Jesus?
