It’s actually kind of heartening that they’ve come to realize, on Cape Cod, that shark tourism can actually be a plus. 

It does bear remembering that a number of the great dino effects in the first Jurassic Park were practical, not CGI. The entire animatronic T-rex, for example; the guys in the raptor suits.

(As I said above, I’m astonished to be one of the few who had parents who DID prevent me from seeing it!)

I’m just impressed your folks allowed you to see it at 6!  I was 7, and totally was NOT allowed.  (I didn’t see it until catching it on TV in the early 80s.)

I was too young to be allowed to see the film in the theater, but because JAWS was omnipresent that summer, I still had the t-shirt. :)

Yeah, saw that earlier!  That thing is amazing and is going to be spectacular!

I mean this with the greatest respect and fondness towards Neil Young, whose stuff I really love, but... Neil Young?

Same.  Couldn’t be a bigger fan, but uh, no.

My station played “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap” and I just about fell out of my chair.

Hey, just taking the chance to say to some of my favorite commenters here that I’m going to miss seeing your commentaries.  You’re one of the people I could always count on for some good writing.

I feel like all of the Splinter commenters need to agree on another of the GM sites to post updates on.  (Pick one, Gizmodo, Kotaku, The Root, etc.)

Ugh, just seeing this now. Honestly, I’m going to miss a number of commenters here on Splinter, including you. :( I hope you may still post comments at some of the other GM sites (are those staying up? I haven’t even gone to check further yet).

Trump is way too much of a coward to be a made guy.  He can give the order to have others kill people.  He couldn’t kill someone himself.

Please.   Please, to whatever god you might pray to, that Pence is implicated as well.

*Tried* to recall them.  It’s the most hilarious thing I’ve seen recently.

(Dang, I hadn’t thought about WMMR’s Morning Zoo in years.  Listened to it in the late 80s/90s, including at work, until moving away from Philly.  Howard Stern is a jackass.)

(Bonus: it’s the ghost of the pet badger Teddy Roosevelt had in the White House.  Because god, would old TR loathe this guy.)

Obviously, I wish her the best. I hope she does unseat him. It would be delicious.

Speaking of obscure, look up a musical called “Fiorello!”, about NYC mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia.  It debuted on Broadway in 1959, starring Tom Bosley (the dad on Happy Days). Unfortunately, a movie was never made.  But I wonder if you could hunt down a recording of a stage production online somewhere.  I grew up on…

This is the exact thought I had, and I was wondering why nobody else brought up that time he just laid out classified documents on the dinner table at Mar Lago, where, IIRC, other guests took cell photos of it.
