You know the Cowboys are an embarrassment to Dallas this season when they’re getting torn up by the Houston Texans.

Guess the show.

Why I love the Onion. Because they can come and take down a crackpot hate-spewing asshole like Alex Jones. Looking forward to the new and improved Infowars.

My blood pressure is slowly starting to go down from not having to deal with Elon’s House of Hatred.

On Thursday night I shut my X account down after five years of continuous use for the most part. Don’t need the increased blood pressure from dealing with Elon’s Truth Social Annex anymore. Feel free to add me.

They don’t care. I saw people say “Jesus is king” only to see them later gloat about voting for a walking violation of all Ten Commandments. Cops took a dump on their oath to uphold law and order by voting for a convicted felon. It’s sickening.

And today I turned off my account at Elon’s House of Trump aka X.

I’m back here and on Threads too.

Considering Elon is talking about charging to use that other platform I don’t blame them.

CEOs: "I should be paid bonuses based on my performance. If I do something that makes the company a lot of money, I should be able to look at the numbers that prove that and share in a portion of the success."

ACTORS & WRITERS: "What about us?"

CEOs: "No. Not you. Fuck you."

By 1979, the transfer looked better. But was like watching a 16MM film like most films in the early days of home video.

Magnetic Video eventually became part of Fox. They evolved it into 20th Century Fox Video, CBS/Fox Video, Fox Video and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.

Tonight’s classic film on VHS. Robert Altman’s MASH. MASH was one of the 50 titles that Fox licensed to Magnetic Video in 1977, launching the home video revolution. This particular release was a 1979 reissue. The original 1977 release uses one of the worst transfers and is nearly unwatchable.

Thank goodness I have about a dozen or so series stockpiled on various formats to keep me entertained in the absence of new programming during these strikes.

It is my hope that the AMPTP gets their head out of their rears and realizes that they can’t win and how out of touch with reality they are.

Enterprise Season 4 was pretty decent because of Manny Coto.

I have that on iTunes. Need to watch it.

Right now I’m in the middle of the eighth season of MASH during my annual viewing of the series.

Close to the end of MASH Season 6, which sent Frank Burns home and brought us Charles Emerson Winchester III and marked the transition to mostly dramedy.

Have the oddsmakers in Vegas come up with a prediction of how long it will be before Elon’s purchase of that other site turn into $44 billion flushed down the crapper?

Currently on MASH Season 4. In comes B.J. and Colonel Potter.

It’s at this time you can tell when the series starts to transition into a dramedy, albeit slowly.

If it’s one thing that is true it’s that no MCU movie has disappointed me.

Guardians 3 is most definitely no exception to that rule.

Bought it on iTunes this morning.

(6) The theatrical cut would be released several times through the 1980s, with the most recent VHS release in 1995 and the film's overall most recent release was in 2001, when Richard Donner's extended cut arrived on VHS and DVD.
