Tue Apr 4 22:29:17 2017 - permalink -Act 1. Obama's 2012 "red line" blunder sent a clear message that Assad/Putin can do whatever they please in Syria and the US won't do anything about it.
Act 2. Trump's bizarre infatuation with Putin plus it's non-interventionist rhetoric sends an even clearer message that Assad/Putin can do whatever they please in Syria and the US won't do anything about it.
Act 3. This.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit - The 3 Rules of Living Animation - YouTube
Sun Feb 26 14:30:15 2017 - permalink -In addition to being a great movie, Who Framed Roger Rabbit is an impressive technical achievement. It still looks great. This video goes into the work and attention to detail the director and animators went through.
Should be noted, Robert Zemeckis also directed Back to the Future, one of the most entertaining movies ever made.

Unlike me, it seems like everyone is doing web-related stuff.
Only 1.8% are unemployed. Very low.
