  1. I wish I wasn't in class right now. I'd love to break out my Friday the 13th movies for a marathon watch!
  2. Weird. Then again, cats are weird. Mst of the time he is a peach, but every now and again the boy cat, Tobey, gets aggressive. I thought having him fixed would stop that, but it didn't. Maybe Cats are like people and just get in moods.
  3. The only ones I watch are 1, 2 and 3. I don't have much use for the rest.
  4. Oh no! Bad kitty! Is it possible that your cat is in pain or hurt?
  5. My second interview went well. I think I have a good shot at a job offer!
  6. Turns out that is Republican misinformation. None of the $6 Billion was received by Iran yet, and it was earmarked for humanitarian aid only. It is still frozen at this time. https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/12/politics/us-qatar-iran-funds/index.html
  7. Yeah it was annoying enough that Pulaski had a problem with Data.
  8. Knowing how California does things, I wouldn't be surprised if they hit you with a big tax bill for buying a car out of state! Az does this, and they usually follow California trends.
  9. It's not just a Biden thing. When push comes to shove, the US is ALWAYS going to back Israel, no matter who is president (except maybe Trump). This is because Israel is the only democracy in the region, the long history both countries have, the high population of Jewish people in the US, and the Christians who support Israel. We may not send ground troops, but the US will always send whatever weapons they need. As for hoping the religions in the area (Jews and Muslims) will forego violence and war, you might as well wish for the sun to stop shining. After hundreds if not thousands of years of conflict, at this point we need to be real and accept that this is who they are: violent 3rd world people who hate each other more than life itself. The real blame in this particular war is Hamas and Iran, who are dedicated to destroying Israel to the point that it literally is part of their religion. The Israelis by no means are innocent, and make no mistake, they are an eye-for-an-eye, old testament country, but it was Hamas that struck first. Israel is tired of being attacked, and I think this time they are going to level Gaza. The Israelis see this coordinated attack as their 9/11, so obviously they are way pissed. As an outsider looking in, I am not really taking sides on this, just saying this is the way it is.
  10. I have a second interview for this job later this week.
  11. I don't think the US will commit troops to that, but the US is already sending weapons and ammo to the Israelis. Netanyahu is like Israel's Trump.
  12. It's terrible. War always is. But I hope we keep our beaks out of that hornets nest. I have a sense that the Israelis are going to do a Fallujah with Gaza, this time.
  13. If the Emperor and the Empire wiped out all the witches on Dathomir, then why did Morgan Elsbeth and the Great Mothers agree to help Thrawn to try to re-establish the Empire?
  14. Well do some light CGI touching up, and she could sell Leia. She is practically a dead ringer for Carrie Fisher as it is, with the right make up and hairdo. She did play Leia in a scene for TROS.
  15. I'm still scratching my head at the fact it was $79,000 for a Maverick. Here it says a Lariat starts at about $35K, MSRP. Did you typo Spammy, or am I crazy? https://www.ford.com/trucks/maverick/models/maverick-lariat/
  16. Yeah those poor kids need to be taken away from Monster Mom.
  17. You know, with the deep fake stuff, they could get look-alike actors and touch them up with CGI. It would have to be easer than a full on deep fake like they did in Mando. I remember some people wanting Sebastian Stan to play Luke. He's be about the right age to do it now. Anthony Ingruber should have been Han in Solo. Billie Lourd would make a good Leia. As for Anakin, I would think Luke communes with his spirit. I doubt Leia would want to, though.
  18. What a piece of work your MIL is. I don't blame you for cutting ties from that black hole.
  19. Agreed. I mean it is possible that if this series got picked up for season 2, I think the plan was for them to return, but with Ray Stevenson passed away, we probably won't get more about him. I don't think they will recast, but will just kill him off screen. Now we may get more Shin backstory, if there is a season 2, or on some other show/movie. At least I hope so. Also, how weird is it that Hayden Christiansen is now about the same age as when Vader died in ROTJ?
  20. Her fighting Ahsoka and loosing didn't really add much to the story, so you are mostly correct on that.
  21. Well, they did establish in Mando that she could fight, to be fair. But Ahsoka beat her then, when she had the Beskar staff. I don't know why all of a sudden having a flaming katana would mean anything different. It was kind of lame, but not as lame as Zombie Stormtroopers.
  22. Oh how I hate my job. Had a fellow tech who was hired in April quit. We had a campus-wide power outage happen at the same time. This coworker phoned in his work and did a shtty job for the last 2 months. Now we are getting tickets on top of tickets because: 1. power outage fried a bunch of PCs 2. we are now shorthanded...just 2 of us for the who campus! 3. the guy who quit created more work for us by doing a shitty job. I suspect he did it on purpose because he knew he was quitting and he was a dick.
