Love that title, “I Am the Night, Color Me Black.” I’ve read that Rod Serling wrote this story in part as a reaction to the assassination of President John Kennedy.

Wow. “The Obsolete Man” is the only episode I don’t remember. I also don’t recall seeing it during any of the recent Twilight Zone marathons which have run on my local tv stations.

...and somehow people making a boneheaded decision, even scientists, is unbelievable?

Amen. To say that the “problem” with Prometheus was that it didn’t have an alien in it is like saying that the problem with the Star Wars prequels is that it had Jar-Jar in it. Prometheus was leaden, a dull narrative filled with stupid characters doing stupid things, and an overlay of pseudo-religious nonsense that…

It’s 2017, and still some people want to insist that there is only one way to watch black themed shows, or that there must be a monolithic “black” response to a series.

I totally agree with this article. The idea that Apple “is supposed” to spend money on acquisitions is dumb, especially when we still have tech companies buying companies that have not made a dime in profits, and which often don’t even have a viable long term business model. And even a company like Disney, where…

Apple is paying its taxes, based on current tax law. And some Trump and congressional proposals on the table would make Apple even richer by reducing corporate tax rates.

Yes.

Damn. I like this idea, instead of just a plain ice cube.

I don’t know if Trump is master of “The Art of the Deal,” but he is certainly the master of “The Art of Obfuscation.” The sad thing is that his supporters are about the have the health care rug pulled out from under them, and yet they are still true believers.

I suppose that scientists should also be looking for the hetero gene, and then go on to investigate what makes some prefer doggy style sex, and others the missionary position.

RE: Asians have always existed in our neighborhoods and run the businesses that we frequent on a daily basis, but after delivering their goods and services to us, they go home to wherever it is they live.

So, how do these drugs differ from drugs used for euthanasia (assuming that drugs have been approved for states and countries that permit assisted suicide)?

I’ve been through lay-offs, seen co-workers laid off, been laid off myself. And one thing I’ve concluded is that I find it absolutely disgusting for anyone to suggest that he or she knows who is more or less fortunate, or when you need to be outraged. Any lay off can be gut-wrenching, and even people who were making…

I would like to see Mad Max movies about the post-Mad Max universe. What happened to the Gyro Captain and grown up Feral Kid from “The Road Warrior” (Mad Max 2) movie? Also, more about how Furiosa fits into the story’s narrative universe. By comparison, the Doof Warrior is an interesting bit of background detail,…

The Ollie flashbacks had a purpose, and should have built to something more, but they ended up kinda confusing the issue about how Oliver became proto-Arrow (did he really have time to learn Chinese and Russian, etc). The character I would most want to know about is Sara, but she is not really part of the current…

Why do I have a sneaking suspicion that Jeff Sessions and the Trump Justice Department will somehow ride in and defend school prayer?

Hmm. Let’s see. If a cop shoots a neighbor, or a small child, but was (say it together) in reasonable fear for his life, then no problem, life goes on, and the police are naturally vindicated. But if a civilian, in his own home, is in fear for his life, he must do nothing, even if he had ended up being shot by the…

Obi-Wan, as a Jedi and in hiding would seem to spark all kinds of independent Star Wars stories.

I know. Let’s play a game called “involuntary religious practices that no one complains about.” I’ll begin.
