THE SOPRANOS played for a long time on Indian cable but I didn't feel inclined to watch it in spite of a fine performance by the late James Gandolfini.Prashant C.

I was wondering how a man of steel from a highly advanced galaxy could die on earth and yet he did. Of course, DC revived Superman later. Spider-Man and Batman certainly appear to be more human in their recent movies. Prashant C.

Anxiety victims are often known to get a gag or choking sensation in their throat and rush to the doctor but it's not the same as what you actually felt, which was very real. Your wife knew what to do in such a situation. It reminded of that last scene in MRS. DOUBTFIRE.Prashant C.

I was heading for the front door about to run down the street in a panic. My wife, who is about half the size of me, kind of rugby tackled me while trying to calm me down and administered some hefty back slaps which dislodged it. My kids - a lot younger were all crying and upset. I was kind of shaky afterwards. <br />When it was happening, my mind abandoned all sense of reason and had me fleeing the one place where there was help. I remember inviting unconsciousness, just so I could kill the panicky feeling at the time.<br />We joke about it now..... col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169151311037688512.post-44106255967432407092014-11-20T00:21:09.733-08:002014-11-20T00:21:09.733-08:00Ron, I have only seen a few minutes of a single ep...Ron, I have only seen a few minutes of a single episode of THE SOPRANOS and nothing more.
