  1. Why don’t fans go to games? Booth reviews on 17 point games under 2 minutes
  2. I recall i was worried about and set the redline of the murder of reporters. I don’t recall that happening but we weren’t far from it.
  3. Some witnesses apparently were just about to go to the committee live and suddenly pulled back. Tampering.
  4. This is a very Hanukkah/Christmas in which the Jan 6 committee keeps giving us nice presents.
  5. Not quite sure who Steve Merrick/Van Johnson or Willie/Robert Francis are. Its not a perfect analogy.
  6. and for the rest of this imperfect analogy... Liz Cheney is Jose Ferrar/Barney Greenwald. Sick to her stomach at her own side.
  7. Trump is not Queeg. Queeg is any professional politician who played by the rules but couldn't hack the new environment of insane demands from the far right and was betrayed by the whiny MTGs and the like who were Fred Macmurray.
  8. A friend sends that she looks like she's one of the 4s from the Meowmeowbeenz episode of Community
  9. Stephanie Ruhle is wearing glasses from beyond freakitude tonight. She has transformed from mid-day news bunny to some weird post-noir villain at night. edit: Villain is the wrong word.
  10. So long as nobody makes Raytheon rich is all
  11. This remind me of Tommy Boy’s first attempt at a sales pitch where he sets the guy’s model car on fire.
  12. That movie also is remarkable for the technology fault line it sits on. The heavy use of computers and the completely analog phone system.
  13. Something about Germany was in the news recently…oh yeah a coup attempt.
  14. Good thing we don’t have to about their navy
  15. Some are thinking why does Ukraine prolong this war?
  16. The 1950s audiences were recently in those ships and had to weigh these situations. So “Mister Roberts” tells the story of the war against boredom as much as the struggle to stay sane. And the dads who lived throughout that time were nodding along.
  17. I have actually seen people who were absolutely terrible during one rotation are completely different and have better grasp of how to lead on another rotation
  18. Max Von Sydow is the best in TDOTC
  19. I like the dig at Arthur Miller
  20. So f'in good None of this computes with the Trumpies of course.
  21. For me...important caveat..."A Few Good Men" is broken. After having been in organizations most of my life where leadership is under a microscope, "The Caine Mutiny" is the real deal. It actually looks at the obligation of the follower and the nuances of what followership means. Fred Macmurray's character cravenly created a situation out of his dislike for the Navy and he caused the problem with Queeg/Bogart's leadership. Jose Ferrar chastising him at the end of the movie is beyond brilliant.
