The squad is taking it pretty hard. We all thought he'd be the one to make it out.
That's #1... what are the next four?

Apparently they had been incorrectly sent the same film section as the headline act.
I've only ever seen the 1953 version. This one has been on my list for ages.
Years ago I went to a multi-band multi- media gig. My mates band had written music for a segment of Two Lane Blacktop, but when their performance started Wages of Fear Started playing.
They were completely throw off.
Can't believe it was so recent, but we are talking about the 2nd Ed here, so makes sense.
Wonder if I still gave a 1st ed copy somewhere...
Moved house & now pulling things from years of storage and no idea where my copy is. Hopefully it turns up.

The AUS Home Affairs minister, Tony Burke, has cancelled the visa of Matthew Gruter after the South African national took part in the neo-Nazi publicity stunt NSW Police permitted outside the New South Wales state parliament last weekend.
"Sad!"
It even flowed into Australia in the late 90s. Was then a FLGS Clerk who had a mum return D&D books her kid brought.
Rather than arguing, I convinced her King Arthur Pendragon was a better alternative, with players being chivalrous knights.
Another eight cormorants have been found dead at a #salmon farm in #Tasmania. The wildlife toll at one lease of 43 birds and two seals in 2025 far exceeds the maximum limit set by the Aquaculture Stewardship Council of nine deaths over two years. #politas

I grew a Carolina Reaper plant once.
Chomped on the first ripe one. Enjoyed it. Then chopped up a few, without gloves. Big mistake.
None of my mates much liked sauce that year. Never grew them again.
Just wait for the reboot, like BSG.
Any day now...
Any day...
Dr Mrs Repeat and I are going to have to audit soon.
So much was in storage, we can finally get rid of some double-ups from our houses merging.
I reckon you've given them away to clear room for the Blu-Ray set.

the corgi duo is still on their deck. this time, the little corgi pup in the front is looking more at the photographer, but her big brother in the background is now looking over his shoulder at whatever it was that had previously caught her eye. he has a matching expression, with his right eye squinting and his left eye examining the offending target judgmentally.
This is Pancho and Lupe. Some siblings have the same nose or ears. Pancho and Lupe have the same side eye. 13/10 for both (IG: panchocorgi)

A sea of phones. Lovely folk in the crowd, making sure everyone got back to their spot after a drink. Pretty good show for old men. Amyl were great in support.
