I wouldn't either if I were you, not with IP addresses getting fed directly from ISPs to the Republican Party of Iowa for future reeducation efforts.

My current favorite TV show is First Dates.

I went through a phrase where I loved to watch that - UK version, of course.

[CountDeMoney]

My current favorite TV show is First Dates.

If I'm going to watch disaster shows, I'll stick to air crashes.

Speaking of disasters, if you want a "Holy Shit" moment, check out Command & Control from PBS' American Experience series on Netflix.

Command and Control
Aired April 25, 2017
The long-hidden story of the day our luck almost ran out.

From the director of the groundbreaking film Food, Inc., comes Command and Control, the long-hidden story of a deadly accident at a Titan II missile complex in Damascus, Arkansas in 1980. Based on the critically-acclaimed book by Eric Schlosser, this chilling documentary exposes the terrifying truth about the management of America's nuclear arsenal and shows what can happen when the weapons built to protect us threaten to destroy us. Filmed in a decommissioned Titan II missile silo in Arizona, the documentary features the minute-by-minute accounts of Air Force personnel, weapon designers, and first responders who were on the scene that night. Command and Control reveals the unlikely chain of events that caused the accident and the feverish efforts to prevent the explosion of a ballistic missile carrying the most powerful nuclear warhead ever built by the United States – a warhead 600 times more powerful than the bomb that destroyed Hiroshima.

The book is good too.

The book is good too.

Yes, an excellent read.

Recommend it for millennials who were around during the cold war.

I knew it would be a waste of time, even before I started watching this film - 'Arrival' .

So they narrowly avoided the destruction of Damascus, Arkansas?
