It’s also nearly as far north as Anchorage.

I was there in July 2018 for a wedding and the World Cup and the sun would set around 11p and rise around 3:30a.

Big Trouble

Its theatrical release was cancelled due to 9/11 and how the climax of the movie plays out. It was quietly released the following year and a buddy and I just happened to stumble into the theater to see it. I thought it was hilarious, but it seems like almost no one has seen it.

Great cast. Ben Foster doesn’t even make the lengthy poster list(ETA: he does on this^ but not the main film poster)

Been a long time since I’ve watched, so not sure how it’s held up.

Peter Millar summer comfort, specifically the tailored fit, or Holderness & Bourne.

re: What's Board's take on House MD?

Posted by Jor Jor The Dinosaur on 5/8/26 at 8:41 pm to prplhze2000

Been years since I watched it, but House was a great character.

Just limped around ripping Vicodin, being a cynical a-hole to everyone, and constantly pulling unorthodox diagnoses out of his arse to solve medical mysteries.

One time at a football game. It just hung in the air. Then it sent me a message, in big bright yellow letters, and told me I was going to have a good year.

It’s under Tiger Stadium and powered by an experimental hamster-fusion reactor called LSU Pile-3.

What’s the point of resurrecting the F-14D?

ostensibly to be used for airshows, but maybe giving pilots of modern fighters an opportunity to train against them for potential engagements with Iran? :dunno:

Not for me. I just don’t have much interest in the storyline anymore, it feels like a slog getting through it.

Not a standard shortcut, but I set up text replacement on my phone to change “@@“ to my personal email and “@@@“ to my work email.

Yeah, but BBC series are usually only like 4-6 episodes.

If you’re familiar with F1 television productions, this is not surprising at all. I think their cameraman established hierarchy is

-attractive women (bonus points for WAGs)
-actual F1 cars/drivers/team members
-celebrities
-regular fans
-aerial drone shots
-F1 TV faces
