Scorsese, DiCaprio, DeNiro among others.

Theater. But with comfortable reclining seats. Only CAM quality on streams so far.

Just completed Killers of the flower moon. Pretty good because we focused on the tragedy and the acting. It could have been 45 minutes shorter but I would see it again.

I enjoyed it too. Beckham is a hell of a guy, and a good family man. Reminds me of Gretsky. Victoria also come across as a good mom and devoted to her husband's career.

Been at it for 21 years. NW has kept pace with S&P500. Have started serious BTD phase as of 2020 with luxury condo purchase and 6 months south, one month Europe. No longer track to budget, just reconcile EOY.

We are in the final fourth leg of our fourth trip to Italy. We are doing the undiscovered places of Bari and Palermo, in addition to revisiting Rome and Sorrento and the Amalfi coast. We struggled with whether we could do it but are glad we did. "If not now, when?" So I suggest to fill your...

I think he made the margarita a "thing" and probably spurred interest in Mexico. I remember sitting in an open bar by the marina in Key West and thinking "This is a JB kind of place!"

The mention of Bill Cullen brings back more memories. (Barker was accused of harassment but it did not involve contact!) RIP Bob.

I tried eating it the other way and I liked it. Thanks for the survey.

This reminded me that early in my career, I used to start acting like my manager in thought and actions. When it came time to promote, I was always the logical choice. My Dad was a poor immigrant from Glasgow, the youngest of 5 children who came over in steerage with their parents. With a grade...
