I had a roommate from a small town. He started reading the SciFi shelf at author "A". He got to about "D" and the librarians noticed and started to buy books ahead of him. Apparently to prevent a cave in.
Mines. Ground troops. Countering mines with ground troops. That's quite the plan.
Yeah, I bet we'd be spending more time on perfecting curry recipes.
Could be worse. I've read the book. Twice.
I once had some 70s weed, and then I cleaned my carburetor. Perfectly. Clean. Then re-assembled and mounted it, and it worked perfectly. Yes, I started the car, well technically a VW bus, but I was very careful not to drive it that day.
Three times bigger? I betcha there's fewer toilets.
That only works if you have a really low table.
That is a great movie. I've also heard that it was stunningly inexpensive to make compared to US action movies.
Imagine working for years, and you finally get a window office, and a felon with 34 felonies covers that window with a banner.

I'm old enough to remember hearing the Star Spangled Banner many mornings, back when the TV and Radio stations were off the air overnight.
Half an hour? That's what he said? Really? REALLY? Is there a place I can bet on that online? I'm thinking between 50 minutes and 2 weeks.
34 Felonies, and he gets a banner on the DOJ. Huh.
Back when I occasionally wrote for an in-house Tech Journal, my copy ran through an editor on staff. It was totally still my story, but it was as if my IQ was like 50% higher.
So, he's going to do it, right?

FAA: Wait, what? No. No. Stop. NO. Oh, fork!
CLOSE EL PASO AIRSPACE FOR LIKE.. TWO WEEKS.

These are strange times. Things will be better with more bonding.
I've visited back there, only to discover that what I seen now are short videos from people I've never followed, and posts from Musk, whom I followed back before he went crazy.
Bluesky is packed with usable news content in comparison.
Alien (1979)
I didn't have a TV at the time, so I'd not seen any ads, or have any idea of the movie at all. My big brother suggested we go, so on a steaming hot night in San Diego we went. The theater was over air conditioned, and at the end I was shivering in my seat. Best accidental special effect

Way back when I was a kid, on the last day of yearly ice skating at the arena in my hometown, they invited people to bring records to play instead of the canned music. I brought Tapestry. They played the whole thing, and it was wonderful.
