Observations from a current teacher who will probably be fleeing for any thing else.
The department of education, the lousy parents, and social media/cell phones.

[quote]That escape plan from Blackbeard was badass. Light a ship on fire and sail it right into one of Rogers’s ships, create chaos, and then escape into the night while the ships are scrambling. Brilliant.[/quote]
That is actually historical, with the exception of it being Jack Rackham that did ...

Spaghetti Westerns are my preferred westerns and I went on a huge binge last summer.
Death Rides a Horse, I loved! Especially as a Lee Van Cliff fan this was great.
The Great Silence..........wasn't for me. I discovered I'm not a fan of...

Rank the Dirty Harry films
Posted by TubaDawg on 6/9/24 at 6:49 am
So having a new born has led to some fun late night viewings. I recently finished the Dirty Harry films for the first time, as a huge Clint Eastwood fan most of them were a fun watch. What would be your rankings of the films?
I settled on:
5. The Enforcer
4. Dead Pool
3/2 are interchangeabl...

re: If you could have any Masters degree out of all SEC schools. Where would you go and pick?
Posted by TubaDawg on 5/24/24 at 1:57 pm
My answer is the same as when I actually was shopping around for masters programs..........I will go to whichever school pays for my degree and offers me an assistantship.
Georgia Southern (not SEC) paid more and gave me way more opportunities than LSU or South Carolina. I would do it again in a...

Also, an interesting real life tidbit on Jack Rackham. Jack is definitely my favorite on the show and it's lead me down a deep dive of all things Pirate and especially Jack.
I'm reading a great book called, Under The Black Flag. Jack (as quartermaster) actually challenged Vane about attacking a M...

I binged the whole series a few weeks ago and should have kept better notes to discuss specific episodes rather than plot points.
However, on this one.......I had picked up on some of the subtle clues (which I think are easier to pick up on when you are watching continuously) and was not complete...
re: Could we see a return of westerns?
Posted by TubaDawg on 5/18/24 at 6:06 am
I think we can still get smaller/indie Westerns like, Old Henry that came out in 2019, which is fantastic if you haven't seen it. Not only is it the best western I've seen in years it is probably in my top 5. ...
