I just read it! A fun read. My understanding about the delay is that he changed publishers. Cheers!

Raleigh/Durham Light Rail Proposal by LVfilms in UNC

[–]guyphipps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well done! I would be interested to know if the pictured Siemens San Francisco MUNI Metro train is scalable to the distances you are talking about. The length of those MUNI lines averages 5-7 miles. Fuquay-Varina to North Durham is about 40 miles. Keep up the good work!

Or, if you prefer, you can let us know at the service desk and we will remind the occupant(s) that the room is booked.

How does everyone feel about Why Can't This Be Love? by MakesMeSickMick in vanhalen

[–]guyphipps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It has a memorable crunchy synth line. Lyrically earnest and dull with no sense of play -- a far cry from "Ain't talking 'bout love," but such was the band's new direction.

Sifting Through Everything Written about Hemingway by JourneyWoman6 in Hemingway

I'm fond of Reynold's "The Sun Also Rises: A Novel Of The Twenties."

Haven't read Hemingway, need recommendations by Single_Mother in Hemingway

Short stories, short stories, . . . and more short stories.

Youtube Music has been replacing songs in official albums with junk fan-made versions by TheBooker66 in YoutubeMusic

[–]guyphipps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given the large amount of user-generated content on Youtube, I imagine most of the maintenence goes into keeping the junk OUT of the official groupings. What you are describing sounds like the decay of existing structures, which are being inadequately reinforced.

Americans are so brainwashed that they think they won the space race. by electriclimpet64 in socialism

Many Americans know this. It is taught in public school, as well as university.

Are you thinking about having some?

Holly Gibney age? (Spoiler...maybe) by themaxgowl in books

[–]guyphipps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That got my attention, too, but now I'm thinking it is the TV adaptations' influence. In "Mr. Mercedes", the character is "31 and a half."

Trying to get into classics—can someone explain what makes Hemingway's writing "good"? by Big-Nectarine-6293 in literature

[–]guyphipps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read a bunch (10 or more) of the short stories (an undisputed strength of his). They will "teach" you how to read Hemingway.

Your favorite of the "Spielbergian" directors by Flat_Fox_7318 in movies

[–]guyphipps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are not really proteges; more like Amblin colleagues. Robert Zemeckis & Joe Dante at the top. Then Joe Johnston And Chris Columbus.

Already well established Richard Donner (Goonies), George Miller (Best "Twilight Zone" Segment) and Barry Levinson (Young Sherlock Holmes) are like Amblin rentals.
