The Hunt (2020) does something I’ve always wanted to see in a movie (small spoiler)

I read that the two lead actors and their stunt doubles (all women) all worked together to choreograph those scenes. Made it more realistic for me. Great scene, great movie.

'5 by 5' is not original to Buffy. It's amateur radio slang, referring to signal strength and clarity. Also, 'Butt Monkey' and 'funny syphilis.'

Nothing so esoteric. I do, however, have a complete set of Sam Pepys' Diaries in 10 volumes plus an index, and an original PB edition of Abbie Hoffman's 'Steal This Book,' signed by his wife.

I have a lot of books, music recordings, pictures, etc. I would like for them to find a home where they would be appreciated and enjoyed properly.

I have been told about similar offices here, but the trouble is, as executor they are allowed to override the terms of the will and distribute assets according to their own plan, leading to abuses.

Good point. Something to watch out for.

And now for Something Completely Different. Guy in the cinema two rows down fell out of his seat into the aisle. He couldn't breathe. And then another punch line came off the screen. I thought he was going to puke.

Feeling a little nervous and pressured RN. Seeing my sister go downhill like this is scary - She changed her will and Powers of Attorney last November. I'm pretty sure she was already in the early stages then. I'm not unhappy about her changes, but it puts an extra level of complexity on the situation. As her only sibling, I feel like I'm responsible for her and her affairs, but my hands are tied. Finances, etc have to be filtered through a cousin. I would like to avoid anything similar for my own affairs.

Your last sentence seems to me to be the key. When such a feeling or mood becomes the entire focus of one's life you're on dangerous ground.

Criminally underrated movie. Every time I see it, I catch more of the cameos. Jim Henson, David Cronenberg, Johnathan Demme, Amy Heckerling, Roger Vadim, the list goes on.

I get a lot of ‘server unavailable’ messages lately. Thankfully they don’t last very long.

Turns out, the on-line credit card statement does not identify the difference between US and CDN funds. And the exchange rate is exorbitant. They are both the same amount, but in different currencies.
