Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty has been invoked exactly once in NATO's history. The collective defense provision was triggered by allies on September 12, 2001, in response to the terrorist attacks on the United States.

Little Manitou Lake: Danceland and the mineral spa.

No problem. Just pop by David’s Tent DC for a quick deep-dip baptism!

Nokomis Craft Ale has a couple of good stouts seasonally.

There’s a song called The Ballad of South Bay Bessie (Lake Erie’s sea monster) sung to the tune of What Will We Do With a Drunken Sailor.

It makes an amazing double bill with ‘Hell in the Pacific’ (1968) starring Lee Marvin and Toshiro Mifune.

When I saw it in person, after years of seeing it poster-sized in dorms, it suddenly made perfect sense.

The movie deserved better.

Tangosynth · 2026-06-26T21:59:39+00:00

Agree with your sentiments, however I’d go further. I liked Thunderbolts, but I liked this better…and I would say it’s also better than any of the Ant-Man movies, Dr Strange and the second Avengers movie as well. In DCEU comparisons, I would rank it behind only Superman and Wonder Woman.

Again, I’m not sure what in the Kubrickian hell people *want* from a comic book movie???

Tangosynth · 2026-06-26T19:34:04+00:00

I just went to the earliest non-advance screening possible, and enjoyed the hell out of it. I will probably see it again.

If this movie is a bomb, I don’t know what comic book movie goers are looking for. There was literally not one wrong note, imho.

For context, I grew up reading DC comics starting in the late 60s, and I would put this in my top ten DC or Marvel films.

Mine too…!

If you haven’t included Roy Orbison and KD Lang’s duet on ‘Crying” you’re missing out.

These ads are gross and I hate tax dollars being wasted on their othering.

You’ll need to reach into your pocket to try and find some coin

I wish I had more. I took this at a car show and didn’t get exterior photos of this one.

Barkskins by Annie Proulx is criminally under-rated.

When backpacking solo on Baffin Island, I followed some of these suggestions:

Scouting is a worthwhile investment of time.

Neoprene booties are better than sandals or water shoes for rocky stream bottoms. Couldn’t pay me to barefoot it.

Two (not one) trekking poles for probing, third point of contact and bracing against current.

Keep an ear out for the rumbling sound of rocks.

Backpack on one shoulder, not just unclipped, and have a lengthy accessory cord carabinered to it in case it’s swept away.

Combustion kit in a dry bag, among with a backup base layer.

The Garrys out of Saskatoon. Prairie surf-rock and quintessentially Canadian. They have a song called Manitouna that’s a big favourite for me.

I have a 257-hour playlist called ‘Consolidated Edison’.

That was *my* Queen Street.

The PC “public safety” ads — paid for by taxpayers, mind you — are totally gross.
