A little off topic, but related to Twister….. I never understood the news channels sending their “storm reporters” out into extremely windy conditions. I expect at some point to see a street sign flying and providing us with a live decapitation. Here, the weathergirl stays inside but in a rather tight dress. I'm guessing its better for her protection.

I saw Twisters yesterday as well. I don't understand how they can do a good job animating the tornadoes and a poor job animating smaller things like the car boring into the ground. Lazy writing that turns the plot on Glen Powell telling a justly traumatized Daisy Edgar to just get over it and rural wi-fi being able to upload proprietary data to some random supercomputer, generate a new modelling software that includes new variables present in the proprietary data and return them the info in less time than it took Maura Tierney to question why Daisy Edgar didn't have to try and stick the accent or how she copied Ann Hathaway's acting style to a T. I'm also intrigued by how no one stops for gas even as they drive around the state the whole time. Fun movie all in all. Thanks. My wife wants to see it Twister one of her favorite movies and she watches it every time it comes on. I try not to notice that the actors would have been hamburger meat. She wanted to see the Twister exhibit at Universal Studios in Orlando. They spin up a mini tornado in a little room and we were supposed to be impressed. Having been through several, the movies require a massive suspension of disbelief. Glenn Powell does have a disarming smile, if it helps.

From Austin so probably a communist sympathizer. 😎

Just watched "The Burial" on Prime. Not what it sounds like but a really excellent movie.

If the burial is about a furneal home owner it was a very good movie even though I can’t take Jamie Fox.

Wife watched Congo tonight. One of her favorite movies but I hate it. I was reading but looked up just in time to see the mountains around Houston. Funny I lived there 70 years and never noticed them. 🤔 A truly awful movie.

You seem to have enjoyed the movie quite a bit more than I did. I noticed the mountains as well.

Civil War on Prime, made me think it could really happen! Sadly, it could. I encounter so many angry, hateful people on social media. Not here, of course. The level of intolerance for others is appalling to me.
