I felt the same! It started out feeling like a movie but ended feeling like a TV show. Seemed like they ran out of money and/or time. And the alien has never looked more like a person in a costume.

Saw #Jaws in Imax last night. Incredible, as expected.
Question: If there are usually no sharks swimming around Amity and this one was an aberration, why did Quint, a professional shark hunter, live there?

Doing this tonight! I've seen it 643,229 times (give or take), but never in a theatre with an audience. Will it be the best thing that has ever happened? Maybe.

It's fun when the hole in your sock gets so big, you could put the sock on from either end and have basically the same experience.

Flu skeet #4:
I don't think it's a flu anymore.
There's a new strain of Covid with exactly these distinguishing symptoms. So I'm going to just assume it's that.
Zero stars for Covid Nimbus. Not as good as the first Covid.

I've discovered that, with the flu, I can write for hours because I have no awareness of the passage of time. It might be a superpower. I am... the Incredible Flu Man!

Flu skeet #2:
I have washed my hands 637 times today. I didn't keep track, but I feel certain the number is accurate. You can tell by counting the rings in the fingers I've scrubbed off.

I have the flu. Alert the authorities.
The thing about a flu is, a lot of it is unpleasant, but some of it is kind of cool. Time disappears into a haze. And a fever, properly managed, gets you some awesome dreams.

I just want to say that this news is probably unrelated to the plot my book, "Hole House."
Probably.

Me, every time I have a headache or something:
"I should take a Tylenol."
I take one.
A while later, pain goes away.
"Oh, I guess I didn't need that Tylenol after all."

Cats are masters at blending into their environments. They can render themselves virtually invisible to the human eye. There may be a cat in the room with you right now and you wouldn't even know it... until it's too late.

Here's something I can't figure out. There are five Backstreet Boys. But they generally sing in first person singular.

So which one wants it that way?

We have another one. That makes 7.
His name is Arnold. So naturally, as long as we have him, whenever he jumps up on the furniture I will say, "Ah-nold! Get down! Get to the choppah!"
Every time. I promise.
