I'm pretty sure that Mac was the only computer of the early '80s that didn't get Castle Wolfenstein or Beyond Castle Wolfenstein.

I didn't think the Martha scene was purely about showing how miserable she was. It was about showing that she had no illusions left about what happened between her and "Clarke".

Even after Elizabeth lowered the pistol, I will still bracing myself. It wasn't until we got to the sad, confused drive home that I took a breath.

It's hard to say with Elizabeth. Was it sweetness or cold, calculating asset management? Or a mix of both.

Aside from spending her teen years on a relationship with an older man who really has no interest in her. Nothing bad has happened to her because of this so far, but you have to wonder other things might have developed in her life without this situation arising.

"Many websites have "creating and perpetuating offense" as their business model. ."

Fine. "With great responsibility, any feelings of great power are delusional."

Night of the Cooter is indeed the obvious choice. I'd just like to see a return of mid to B budget sci-fi horror movies, which seemed to have their last bloom in the '80s, although Slither was a solid throwback to the genre.

I used to work in a store with escalators, and when I was there after-hours, I did find walking on an off escalator somehow disorienting. It's like my sense of balance was trying to compensate for the motion that wasn't happening.

I have vague memories of getting an untied lace caught in a department store escalator as a pre-schooler. It was a big scene, and they had to stop the escalator.

That's all we ask.

Used to live in Roger's Park and work in the loop, and it was bad enough having them explode onto a train I was on. I can't imagine having to actually share the same stop.

That would be fantastic, but I expect adapting "Heirs of the Perisphere" would require some difficult rights negotiations.

I think parenting is place where "With great power comes great responsibility" works just fine.

No question. It's a good show, and I like it. My point it really that it's impossible to really capture the books in a TV show, so saying the books are better isn't that hard a slam on the show.

Then again, there can be a lack of grace in trying to keep up with what the kids are into as well.

I'm a Lansdale fan, so I've been watching it all along, but it has stayed weirdly under the radar for a show that is moving onto a third season.

It's not as good as Lansdale's books, but still well worth checking out if you like Lansdale.

It's a bit like the Jeeves and Wooster show for me. Hugh and Laurie do as fine a job with those roles as can be done, but when you read the books, Wooster is the guy telling you the story in his own ridiculous voice. In a case like that, having the action narrated is better than seeing it acted out.

I agree. Just trying to make the best of what we have.
