At least that one is mostly regarded as completely over the top and silly.

I could probably sing you that whole album front to back to this day.

Yeah, the exchanges between Omri and Little Bear are very illuminating. I must've read all of those books a dozen times each as a kid. I love towards the end when you start finding about the drama between the two sisters in WWI period, and the creation of the key.

Actually, the books did a decent job of that themselves. The Indian describes how he is Iroquois and lives in a longhouse, and that not all Indians live in tipis and drink "firewater", and how that's just a TV/movie thing. They also describe how the French and British used the Iroquois and Algonquin to fight a proxy

I absolutely LOVE all of the other books in the Indian In The Cupboard series. I think they'd make fantastic movies, maybe even more so than the first.

It gets into the field of Korzybski's general semantics, best known for the idea of "the map is not the territory."

Remember how terrible Michael & Michael Have Issues was?

Morgan Freeman is too self-aware. I think I reached peak Morgan Freeman some years ago.

I most commonly see it referred to as Symphonic Metal or Fantasy Metal.

I wouldn't call them death metal.

If you've not watched Mr. Selfridge over the past couple of years, I'd recommend it. I've very much enjoyed it.

It's because if you are willing to pay a lot for a room, they figure you are willing to pay for lots of other stuff. Additionally, many of these tier hotels (Marriot, Sheraton, HGI, Renaissance) get a lot of their business from business travel, and so most of the guests are using business expense accounts. If the

It's not on Netflix anymore.

The Goonies really isn't a good movie, as a kid or as an adult.
