@billtilley1973 I remember you mentioning that poster of a truck your dad drove, and the YT channel “bus grease monkey” is working on a similar one.
If you watch any of it, skip to the last minute where they play their outro country song & montage!

@SMERSHPOD I *really* loved the LOTR review today - it was very similar to RLM’s review of the Star Wars Holiday Special - a rambling romp through every tangential connection to every actor & situation ☺️

@1jcmaxwell It really sucks for her, because she did such a great job as an actor - all the actors, costumers, & CG artists were amazing - it was the writer’s room that failed.
The overall plot was fine too - but obtuse writing and nonsensical story structure ruins so many shows nowadays.

@1jcmaxwell This year, the weather is great for farmers (lots of sun and frequent rain), so my friend’s watermelon patch exploded in size.

@DeclouxJ If you come back to Japan, there are a lot of flea markets out in the countryside around Tokyo. You may not find many interesting videos, but they do have occasional treasures ☺️
The calendar on this website is the real treasure, despite the old design☺️

@DeclouxJ Do those discs even play well?
I know they are burning ripped web streams from newsgroups and such, so the video quality is whatever they downloaded - but are the discs themselves burned correctly, or are too garbage for a player to even read?

@DeclouxJ The bundles of Manga are so enticing!
When I go cycling in Gunma (about 100km north of Tokyo), I cycle by skips full of people dumping twine-wrapped sets at paper recyclers. I passed up a very old set of Akira - I heard them whispering to me - but they’re toilet paper now😩

@redlettermedia Letterman recently posted an interview he did with Robin Williams (for the opening of Dead Poets Society), and they brought up his mom being in the Silver Foxes workout video!

@dloehr My daughter loves the entire Iron Man 1 through Endgame Arc. She refuses to see any moves or series afterwards -
“The story is over and the multiverse is bad.”
I think Loki & WandaVision are excellent, but she feels the story is concluded and they are just dragging it out.

@NickBNovak @JoeBiden @tammybaldwin Wow! Your vehicle can fit 14 people?
My odyssey seats 7 people and uses half the gas, so you must drive a city bus - or a useless pedestrian crusher.

Almost $108 to fill up my truck today!
Somehow I don’t think @JoeBiden or @tammybaldwin will want to talk about how well #Bidenomics is working when the President is in Wisconsin today…

@DJSnM If you are using stacks upon stacks of CPLs on the lenses, you basically get weird rainbow-colored images.
All my 2012 eclipse photos in Japan came in a variety of purples & greens - but not yellow.
I color-corrected it back to yellow afterwards.

Ok armchair rocket rocket scientists - is this eclipse green because it’s starting up using TEA/TEB or because of engine riche exhaust containing copper.
😂🤣🤣🤣

What an incredible view! Despite a few clouds, we were still able to capture the magic of the Great North American #Eclipse from our Rocket Ranch in Briggs, Texas.
