Obscure YT of the day: following up on yesterday Phillip Michael Thomas didn't return for the 2nd season of DETECTIVE EXTRALARGE, so Bud "Trinity" Spencer teamed up with Michael Winslow (POLICE ACADEMY sound FX guy!) Hilarity ensues!

Robert Booth Nichols has me hooked. Con artist who loudly shouts "I'M A SECRET AGENT WITH THE CIA!!" at every opportunity. Seems to legit be connected with the mob and probably involved with Iran/Contra. Jack Valenti, who created the MPAA rating system, called BS.

The Enforcer: The Story of "Happy Jack" Burbridge
By Jack Burbridge as told to Victoria Chandler
1980, Acclaimed Books
Grabbed this on the strength of the cover in the Men's Adventure section and was surprised to find it was inspirational fiction. Jack Burbridge was a remorseless psychopathic
Commie Sex Trap
by Roger Blake (John Felix Trimble)
1963, Boudoir
Communists blackmail an American GI into photographing coded messages by holding his East German fiancΓ©e hostage. He schemes to rescue her, but mainly bangs every woman he meets.
Just outlined the Kung fu cyberpunk horror story I've had in my head for 30 years, which I think started life as a gurps campaign I couldn't get anyone to play. shocked I could remember all of it, been rolling this stuff around so long half my neural pathways are devoted to it.

It didn't start with it, but a lot of people in thesystem look at crime and mental health like Spider-Man No Way Home, with not great results.
The view: all crime is caused by mental illness, which can be cured by a single external application of treatment, after which there will be no crime.
Got hung up on the origins of the term "cliffhanger", referring to the suspenseful ending of a serial installment requiring you to see the next installment to learn the fate of the hero, presumably from movie serials.
