Imagine it -
Lincoln had been assassinated just 5 years before his birth and Gettysburg was recent history. The first Transcontinental Railroad was brand new The Pony Express was still active. The democratization of photographic technology The Industrial Age The Russian Revolution The Statue of Liberty WWI, WWII, Vietnam, the Cold War Wright Bros first flight The Model T Relativity The birth of Jazz The Great Depression The birth of television MLK The British Invasion ...and every other major event of the 20th century occurred when he was over the age of THIRTY! He also survived polio, smallpox, measles, mumps, and rubella. And this dude was chillin' in his hut the whole time.

Went disc golfing yesterday and had a fart that went bad. Thankfully there were portapotties handy. But about ten minutes later my butt just started burning like a mother****er. Long story short I was forced to go to work today with a raging ass rash (my manager wouldn't let me call out).

My old office was a 10 minute walk from a "Wings and Things". After lunch one day I'm walking back and about one minute into it I had a FTWB™.
Ugh. Worst 9 minutes of my life.

Just saw the worst trainwreck of a film trailer of my life - Snowden.
Hollywood is trying to make a buck off the most important digital rights issue of our time. And to keep the biopic as accurate as possible, they've loaded it with action sound effects, suspenseful chase scene climax music, sex, and a few explosions for good measure. And some spooky 3D spy software visuals. ...and throw in Nicholas Cage. Because that's always a good idea. The Citizenfour documentary film already exists, and it accomplishes everything a Snowden film needs to. I know I have a significant anti-Hollywood bias, but it's precisely cinematic titanics like this that drive that tendency.
