How did you feel about Witch? I liked most of it, considering it was a first season episode and felt like it should be a single standalone. They managed to squeeze some continuity out of it later, but I felt it was wasted potential.
The comics did some comics logic stuff and invented SlayPires, Slayers that have been made to Vampires. I can't say much about it because the comics were batsht and I didn't follow them. I had to read the summaries.

Techniques vs Mind Reader vs Enthusiasm vs Great Hands. McCoy got Jadzia's recommendation. And Mindreading has got to be a major asset in bed. But Troi was all over Riker*, and lets face it, he put the Big E in Enthusiasm. So Riker** *despite me thinking it was a bad long term match. ** bleh
Full MummyFace coverage or it didn't happen. If you don't have Tom Cruise or Brendan Fraser or [the guy from the 30s] checking you out with tanna leaves in hand you missed something. Good luck
I noticed one of the MeTv incarnations running Twin Peaks in a strip this weekend. It was a nice refresher. It was early in the series where Sheriff Truman is heading out Laura Palmer's funeral.
Your faith needs to go into the soldiers of the National Guard. Most of them take the oath very seriously. But when they get pressed to take an illegal order, who will break which way will be key.
She forgot to praise President Trump like an opening and closing blessing over a meal. Expect her to doubly overcorrect for that in the coming days, or be pushed out of the Trump orbit.
Los Angeles is STILL trying to explain why there is no train service between Union Station (the large downtown crosscountry passenger station) and LAX airport or any of the other 5 in the area. At best the terminals are on the opposite side of the airfields. Most others are miles apart.

Giuliani the hero seems like a good thing on its face, but somehow it feels like there are parts of the story missing.

Great episode. It really hit on all levels, even the epilogue.
Welcome to being a singular example, so being the default icon the sleeping majority knows. The only good thing I can say about it is I grew up around a lot of Black folks who were "firsts" in their communities, so I had a lot of personal role model examples. Still sucks, but training helps.
The blindfold is said to be both for the executee and the executors. The firing squad doesn't want to look into their eyes. #PathsOfGlory #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #TCMParty #KirkDouglas
It was only so-so. Needed stronger direction.
"Battery commander respectfully reports he cannot execute such an order unless it is signed by the general" in other words I Will Not Murder Our Own Men, not without a direct signed order. #PathsOfGlory #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #TCMParty #KirkDouglas

He needs to go. But the yahoos start drooling "Impeachemnt!" at every action. It's lost meaning as a political threat.

Same. Just a name in the atlas. I might have crossed it up with Palmyra.

It's a good color on you. And the opening zipper makes a certain statement too.

I wondered about that statement too. Heard it while driving to work. All the way I was wondering how a kidney goes unused but still be transplantable. Unless he's tipping a secret about some kind of vat grown organs. Or someone implemented the plot of #Coma.

The Rock gave a #WalkingTall reboot a shot. It was OK, but he's a popcorn action kinda guy. We need more of a Hero with a Dark side star. Bright shiny theme music busting moonshiners, then dark undertones as he loads the shotgun and calls his wife.

It's my birthday next week and if you're thinking of what to give me please consider preordering my book POPCORN DISABILITIES. I talk about a lot of movies, some great, several really bad. Or if you're open to helping me promote it.... amzn.to/420wXlB

OK, but I've never been a Riker/Troi fan. Worf/Troi yes. Data/Troi ok. Crusher/Troi sure. Yar/Troi I'll consider. But really it's Riker. Riker's last scene should have been, "Fire at Will" back in TNG
Bad food served by a private equity driven corporation trying to heartlessly squeeze every dollar out of the dying corpse of a sometimes beloved memory.

Shades of VERY modern politics, one of the scandals in #TheBestMan (and in #AdviseAndConsent) is a hint, and more than a hint, of homosexuality in the candidate's past. In 1964 that would be a fatal wound. Today, ???? #TCMParty #TheBestMan #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #HenryFonda
Lee Tracy is doing his best, "no I'm not Harry Truman". And doing it very well by the way. He deserved that nomination. #TCMParty #TheBestMan #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #HenryFonda
A few places have tried to stop recording police. Called it interfering (no matter how far away they were), or "collecting evidence" by confiscating the video, or directly calling it a crime (Boston??). See "Photography Is Not A Crime" for more details and spurious arrests.

In the book, Prof Groteschele had been with US forces in post WWII Germany. He interviewed Nazis and survivors. If you saw Tarantino's #IngloriousBasterds you'll have a hint of what he does. #TCMParty #FailSafe #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #HenryFonda
Plot hole - jamming is off, the US command should now be able to send a recall code via the digital link. They did that in #DrStrangelove, but the bomber's radio was fried so they continued with their attack order. #TCMParty #FailSafe #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #HenryFonda

"... the fighters would be ordered to shoot them down..." "Who gives that order?" "You do sir." Some of you may recall fighters being scrambled on 9/11, heading for the unresponsive airliners. #TCMParty #FailSafe #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #HenryFonda

One rule of flying and inflight emergencies, Aviate, Navigate, Communicate Talking to outsiders comes lower priority than saving the aircraft. It makes sense the airliner would not make calls out until it restarted engines. #TCMParty #FailSafe #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #HenryFonda
General Black is hinting at the OODA loop, the steps in a decisionmaking chain, and how quickly and wisely it can act. Disrupt that and the decisions fail. Speed it up, you stay ahead of the other guy. #FailSafe #TCMParty #SummerUnderTheStars #SUTS #HenryFonda en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OODA_loop

Probably came off of confiscated cars. Cops (city/county/state/fed) have literally LOTS of cars in impound or possession. Simple trick to move a plate from one to another.
