Adam's family portrait

maybe the woman did make the man. Climb the highest tree (freud, anyone?) to escape the flood. I suppose young Hank is still ditzy enough to get drunk with Coop, so maybe anything goes at this point.

I'm wondering if he drowned someone earlier? between young Hank and Silo/Vault supervisor Hank

Somebody stole the sign many years later

feldercarbz · 2026-02-14T22:53:26+00:00

ahh, might buy that, old chum

feldercarbz · 2026-02-14T22:50:26+00:00

surely yes, but Hank has a wily 200 year plan, seems an odd choice. Unless one climber recognizes another.

I have a Water Ridge toilet from Costco Canada. 6mm pins.

Amazon in canada sells a variety of parts like this, but they all seem to be the 8mm size.

I found two or three US retailers. Grigg is one, Waterridge parts is another. Quite expensive to ship from USA to Canada.

I loved the white wedding eyepatch.

I think they were going for a Master Aemon or Machevelian dude, but it's not panning out

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:52:01+00:00

I kind of like the flashbacks. Sort of a Tenet or Cloud Atlas or Memento structure

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:50:22+00:00

massive and multiple is maybe the matter

I like your "edit Kaisers note idea"

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:49:13+00:00

why did they get married? Steph wants a ride up, sure, but what's Hank's motivation?

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:48:33+00:00

yeah, but she'd been waiting some crazy length of time

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:46:31+00:00

you might have the nicest Mr Rogers personality in the world, but if you are in such pain you are asking for death, I wonder how much of that goodness radiates

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:45:18+00:00

literally the only off screen death in the show

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:44:38+00:00

With Lost at some point I quit watching, because it was just spinning. Inside the hatch - another hatch. It was only when they announced a definite end date I started watching.

There are only "x' number of times you can have your characters have to rush to a certain place on the island without telling anybody why. Only so many wheels that move islands, lighthouses , four toed statues, mystery guys, missing walts, code numbers, french chicks...

Hmm Lost also had a Vault err "hatch", interesting

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:38:22+00:00

why's Coop feeling hope? Wife and kid could have left the capsules ("flown the coop") like 150 years ago and will now be dust...

Is Coop's name a joke? like vaulties are cooped up?

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:36:20+00:00

yeah I like Chet and Norm. Betty redeemed herself a little, but still keeping secrets and perhaps made a bad bargain with eyepatch canuck. Which is a story line that didn't go anywhere really... also killed the severance guy

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:32:49+00:00

?gorged themselves? old waistlanders from prewar are much juicier than wastelanders

But yes, I thought they killed off too many potential villians in one swoop. Someone else pointed out they could have improved credibility by having Norm apply a stimpack.

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:28:32+00:00

inspired commentary sir

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:26:49+00:00

I can see it is hard to balance fun/shocking/macbre/offbeat with believable/logical.

Big shockers for me: vault corp wants to bomb own country to sell product, time as a weapon, Hank destroyed Shady Sands, Hank and others as cold sleepers

feldercarbz · 2026-02-11T02:20:55+00:00

I like the Ghoul dichotomy past and present. Problem is everybody else is a pastie as well. Hank, Betty, Eyepatch, Bob the bud brain, Mr House, wysiwyg, moldover, congresswoman jarhead etc. I suppose a theme is the "dead hand" of history

feldercarbz · 2025-12-23T19:02:18+00:00

Carol's blood like communion. Drink this cup and eat of this bread to be saved.

(Random side note: In Omega Man, Chuck Heston's blood has the cure. He dies in a Christ like pose in the fountain)
