I watched a 60s episode of the Jetsons.
Fascianting to note quite how sexist it is and that Mrs jetson says robot the same way as Isaac Asimov. I've never heard anyone else talk of a robit.

Thieves in the Woods on hiatus.  Checking out Waco.  Pretty good 15 in.  Sympathetic to Koresh.  Down on the ATF.

Is that the 2.5 ish hour documentary from a couple of years ago?

If so it's very good and gives a lot of insight into the working of the original group and how Koresh took it over.

Nope.  Full dramatic treatment.  6 part miniseries.

I liked the Waco "documentary" where they edited the film so it looked like the government used flame throwers.  The film that inspired a major terrorist attack!
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The theory of time travel - one of the random pieces of trash that fills up amazon prime.... But this one was actually pretty good. Slow start but interesting timey wimeyness

The Brain

I've started on The Hollow Crown, watched Richard II. I saw parts of it on TV some years ago, but now I saw it all. I liked it.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Yeah, I saw that movie and it was ok but also quite strange. A semi-dystopian society or something. I wasn't sure what to make of it.

Westworld - it started well but once again they get undone by their obsession with twists and plot pyrotechnics. Stopped caring.
