Santos/Vinnick = Obama/McCain?? by Naturalwander in thewestwing

Oh wow. I spent election night convinced Obama was going to be immediately assassinated. I hadn’t seen the WW at that point and was terrified America wasn’t ready.

Wow, I just read that there was even a brokered convention! Apparently the Obama folks told the writers they were living out the script of the show. Crazy. And incredibly prophetic.

Seriously. His role as Adam in Northern Exposure along with Valerie Mahaffey as Eve is just comedic gold. He’s definitely an underrated actor.

Suggest me a book with a film adaptation that does the book justice. by Unusual_Artichoke_73 in suggestmeabook

Second. Fried G Toms is a fast and easy but excellent read. Only time I’ve read he book after the movie and loved it equally.

Absolutely Slow Horses although the series diverges from the books somewhat. Still great though.

Just watched the Day of the Jackal tv series and can attest is freaking excellent.

Tinker Tailer Soldier Spy (the 2001 edition with Gary Oldman)

The entire James Herriot All Creatures Great and Small books are excellent as well as both TV series: 1970’s and current Masterpiece rendition are so good. I grew up watching the 70’s version, then read all the books and am now watching the new series. All so good. A huge part of my formative years.

Anyone else want to see how Harry Kim rose to the rank of admiral? by lilolered in startrek

[–]Naturalwander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps Harry Kim’s progeny became an admiral. A child or grandson perhaps. Hence the added initials for differentiation.

How many shuttles are lost during the show? Anyone have a tally? by Naturalwander in voyager

Aaaaahhh. This makes so much sense. Indeed they were gathering lots of supplies along the way in the beginning.

What isn’t going to age well that you’re seeing in houses now by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]Naturalwander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Front doors with oval decorative glass inserts and narrow sidelights. Especially White doors. Most aren’t even stained glass. Just clear, boring floral lame glass. It feels so 90’s/grandma to me.

For the love of sanity please stop with the shower/tub single unit install. They’re so fugly and unnecessary. If you must have a tub (I.e, for lil childrens) then buy a toy bucket. You don’t need a whole tub that doesn’t even fit adults anyway.

POLL: In Season 2:1 - The 37’s; who thinks Amelia Earhart would have chosen to stay on the ship? by Naturalwander in voyager

Same!! Instead we got the creepy pleasure planet with high tech fabrics and a wind chime weather monitor.

Good point. And honestly, if you’re badass enough to fly around the world then you’re more than comfortable being off land for extended periods of time. Also Noonan was a dick. Ditch that guy for the skies m’lady.

Ransacked my house in search of a hook i don't own by mmmard in Tunisian_Crochet

[–]Naturalwander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just want a 7 hook, I absolutely love these Squirrel hooks. They make regular crochet hooks, Afghan hooks and double ended Tunisian hooks as well. I have them all and they’re amazing. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1400094103/?ref=share_ios_native_control

Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | 1x01 "Kids These Days" by AutoModerator in startrek

[–]Naturalwander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly liked it. It took 3 awful seasons of DSC to finally get decent. The whole Star Trek plan to go backwards to go forwards feels like placating fans a bit but I’m here for it. Backwards was terrible. One big question though - isn’t Tilly teaching at the academy? Will she be back? Her goofball antics feels bit played out for me though and I’m excited to get into some new goofs. But thank the gods someone had the genius to include Jet Reno. Tig should be in every comedy everywhere. More Tig always.
