    Any writers?

    But certainly worthwhile! You'll have to post pics of these finished products!

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Yes he does, and so does Liev Schreiber; I've always liked the both of them in everything they do. I think another interesting point was that neither brother (in reality) discussed the ordeal much. Strong people and humble, too!

    Hitler-mocking dog enraged Nazis: archives

    Haha, what a strange piece of history.

    Hoard of 100,000 unseen Chicago/NYC Street Photographs

    Excellent photos, pity there weren't more published on that link, and even more pity there weren't any from Chicago posted.

    Any writers?

    I believe DEM can go both ways, so long as it's relatively abrupt and includes some kind of blatant surprise which turns the tides. Ironically, I did choose the "bad" ending, or at least in as much as the hero doesn't walk away from the scene (he's carried out). Sure, he lives, but for how long...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Defiance (2008) What a strange mix of genuinely interesting story and overly-canned Hollywoodism! I enjoyed the film and I believe it was entirely saved by two decent actors who allowed the story to tell itself. Otherwise, I could see where the directors and producers wanted so badly to...

    Any writers?

    Argh! That's where I am right now! I finished that chapter I needed to add, but the ending to the story is so...I don't know, deus ex machina. This is such a good novel (IMHO), and it needs a real careful ending. As I read over my final chapter, it's as if I spun a globe and stopped it with my...

    As A Kid, What Were You Like?

    Shy or outgoing? In the middle. I was the class clown, but I didn't really have many friends; nor did I care for any. Active or a couch potato? Extremely active. I was involved in sports all year around, as well as boy scouts. I spent every moment of every day doing something. Whether I was...

    Unpopular music opinions

    Precisely! I realize Heavy Metal is an acquired taste, but I would argue that it's far more complex than what meets the eye. Very often, it's lumped into a teenage-angst category, but I've been listening to metal for decades and I've really come to appreciate the time and effort that goes into...

    Unpopular music opinions

    Blasphemy! lol No, I think there are some pros and cons for both composers. I must admit, I have an album by the Hilliard Ensemble where they do some JSB pieces, and it is unbelievably mesmerizing. On the other hand, I have always loved Mozart's piano solo pieces. I will say that Beethoven...

    Unpopular music opinions

    Well, I do like prog rock, as well, including bands like Rush, Pink Floyd, Tool, Turing Machine, Jethro Tull, Goblin, Radiohead, The Mars Volta, etc. I was referring to my love for prog metal, including bands like Meshuggah, Gojira, Arcturus, Nevermore, Yakuza, etc. But yeah, I think we're on...

    Stanley Aladdin Thermos

    lol, hit the nail on the head. Someone I work with ACTUALLY SAID THAT. "Huh, I remember when those things used to be $25, and they lasted forever." Thank god my dad's mom hordes peculiar items! I've got a nice old Stanley Aladdin in mint condition that's been sitting in her cupboard since she...

    Unpopular music opinions

    Well, I'll probably be strung up for this one... I can't stand the Beatles, the Beach Boys or Elvis. I think Hendrix and Joplin were iconic only in the fact that they died young. Sinatra is only as good as his clothes, but I can't stand his voice, and Dean Martin played a good drunk - but...

    Stanley Aladdin Thermos

    lol Exactly. When I took my Stanley Aladdin with me to an early morning CCW course in December about 7 years ago, I was pleased to find my car at about 2 degrees F, and my coffee piping hot just like it was when I put it in. I did use one of the newer ones once (someone lent it to me), and I...

    WWII Photos - Taken / Collected by Family Members

    Wow! Excellent photos all! And very interesting story, murena! I'll have to try to get some pictures of my grandfather up here. He was regular Army under Patton in the European theater; fought almost all major battles including D-day, Battle of the Bulge, etc. Liberated many camps and fought...

    Stanley Aladdin Thermos

    Ah, the devil is in the details! Let this be a warning to any unwary readers! From all information I could find, it appears the previous Stanley Aladdin models were built in the USA (specifically, Nashville, TN) and were made of a thicker steel. You can test this out by holding a "vintage"...
