  1. You're not asking me but just came back, so I'm going to answer anyway! About $1100 for IAH nonstop to Narita. Flying to Japan is like most places - expensive in the summer, cheaper before and after the summer.
  2. Waves A very intense, emotional film that focuses on a driven father and driven son in the first half. Then something happens and everything changes. https://a24films.com/films/waves
  3. Number of houses without power continues to go up
  4. Glad that the NWS employs people who can't write numbers with a mouse on a computer just like me
  5. Definitely a lot more rain in the last hour than all morning.
  6. I'm a member of an expat group for Playa Del Carmen and they have been so excited that Uber is now available. Lotta foreign residents in PDC are tired of taxis.
  7. Do you want to be an awesome parent? MOTOCROSS CAMP https://ironhorsecountry.com/
  8. It's a thread about movies where the second half is a lot different than the first half.
  9. HVAC person: Make sure you run your AC in the winter to keep it from seizing up from non-use Me: Can do
  10. Movies that switch genres midway through the movie. The tone changes, the atmosphere changes. The second half of the movie is very different from the first half. First up...From Dusk Til Dawn. First half of the movie is a roadtrip with a kidnapping. Tense and creepy. Second half is balls out vampires and gore and killings.
  11. Do you know which type it might be? This instructional video can help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8Ow1nlafOg
  12. Bag chairs have the diagonal supports that cut into your leg. These don't.
  13. You're Next The trailer makes it looks like a "dumb family gets slaughtered by killers" but it's much more fun than that.
  14. Hoping for a Japan trip in early 2023. May want a side trip to go snowboarding. The trip isn't just for snowboarding, but if the snowboarding is good enough, why not go try it out?
  15. The Watcher is a magazine article stretched out into a mini-series. It's the classic "we don't have enough material but let's make it a Netflix series anyway" show on Netflix. I've become suspicious of any true crime/thriller series on Netflix. Watching them on Netflix is like answering an unknown number that called your cell.
  16. I'm thinking greater Nagano area. I've done some research and it seems doable. I'm hoping for some personal experiences, tips, general ideas.
  17. Anyone ever snowboarded in Japan? Looking for details/ideas.

    Atlanta FX

    All the people in the mall pulling out handguns but no one can hit the shooter cracked me up.
  19. 11:30p Saturday night on FS1
  20. Some very scattered, intense showers. Had rain pouring down and drove 1/2 mile and it was barely wet.
  21. Ford has opened the order bank for the 2023 Mach-E
  22. "Winter is expensive to maintain"
  23. It's been mentioned before - check out travel arbitrage. Take your retirement dollars and live in lower priced countries. I was surprised that there are a lot of surprisingly lower cost options than I originally thought - Spain, Greece, etc. Your options aren't just Mexico and Serbia.
  24. Anyone planning to move to another country has to be honest about their tolerance for different cultures and customs. I've talked to some people who retired and moved to another country and then moved back to the U.S. Many of them said they got tired of the cultural/customs difference. It built up over time and eventually wore them down.
