  1. There was an NBC (HBO?) movie made circa 2003 about this with Alec Baldwyn as the titular character. Was very paint by numbers. This one has great actors and has potential. John Slattery is forever type cast though. Just the way it is.
  2. Coulda bought a buncha house lots in an oil field town real cheap in 1998, when oil was $12. Then fracking came 7 years later...
  3. Episode 4 got me sucked in. The sheep, Temu Timothy Chalemet, the child grooming, the setup of the critter extraction, and then the close. I apologize for questioning this show. More show please.
  4. That sheep scene. Noah Hawley, you can just rock me to sleep tonight...
  5. Economically disincentivizing countries from trading with Russia is necessary. Certainly there is a way to do it that is a bit more surgical.
  6. Top third of the post-1990 Bond films. And it only gets more and more prescient.
  7. That car didn't seem to handle it well.
  8. Fusion cuisine is out of control.
  9. My millennial sisters, their friends, their tween daughers and teen daughters are spooled all the way up. There's an entire demographic that's gonna skip school that day. Biggest TV event since the Challenger.
  10. Or load them in shipping containers, hire a dumbass Russian freight company to take them all the way in. Launch from the dock.
  11. Their gear gets cheaper and cheaper. And officers gooner and gooner.
  12. The android/synth angle is more interesting than the alien part. And their "Mark Zuckerberg turned bad (worse?)" is my favorite character. And sadly, the most realistic.
  13. A better man matrix might be "rich/asshole."
  14. Episode 2 has me very confused. Episode 3 better be better.
  15. My reading is the benefits start at 10% of BW and go up from there. Rucking was part of my workout a few years back. I started at 10% and added weight as I adapted. I wanted a 60 min walk to be tough and added weight as needed to do that. No idea how high I got.
  16. So cut down a buncha American rain forests and plant coffee?
  17. (Saying this in jest.) Rucking had it's run, but has now jumped the shark. I saw a >65 yo lady on the trail yesterday wearing a weight vest. Not one of those faux body armor cosplay weight vests, but one with cast iron wieights. Looked like she had it loaded up good. From age 35 to our inevitable death, all we do is try to outrun in. In here case, she's taking joint health and osteoporosis for serious. Good for her. That said, the youngs are gonna hafta look elsewhere. I predict jazzercise is gonna make a comeback.
  18. So...I have bad news. 2017 FSU went 7-6 and had Jimbo as their HC. The football part will be laughably bad.
  19. This guy got a history? Some posters there seem to know unflattering things about him.
  20. Wow the flashbacks.
