re: Do all Nissan Altima's come from the factory with collision damage?
Posted by JohnnyAlpha on 3/2/23 at 12:32 pm
In 1993 my wife and I were looking to buy our first new car together. We test drove the Mazda 626, Nissan Altima, Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, and Saturn SL2. The 626 was in a new model year and I believe the Altima was a new model. We actually liked the Altima a little more than the 626 but the d...

re: Let's talk about Liam Hemsworth's Pimp Hand

The coffee hasn't kicked in yet this morning for me here on the west coast. I thought this was referring to Liam Neeson and was trying to understand what was so odd about his actual hand to draw the attention of Miley Cyrus. :lol:...

re: Energy Secretary demands Energy Companies increase oil supply but wants them shut down
Posted by JohnnyAlpha on 6/16/22 at 1:49 pm
For this group, there is no objective truth - only their own subjective truth. We can wave a magic wand and transition over to "renewable" energy. I think they are either truly deceived assuming that their policies are not destroying the economy or they are purely evil.

re: Great video for those of us like me who wanted to understand the Russia/Ukraine situation
Posted by JohnnyAlpha on 3/3/22 at 4:19 pm
The best video that I've seen was the one on the earlier crisis in Ukraine (from 2014).
John Mearsheimer is a professor of political science at U of Chicago and his presentation is spot on. You should watch the video to its end. The Q&A session has some amazing insights as well (such as the imp...

You can set up a Roth IRA custodial account for your child who is working a job but under 18 years old. They can contribute as much as they earn into the account (up to $6,000/year).
Investing $200/month for 50 years with a 10% annual return will grow to $3.46 million (when your child hits 66 ye...
re: Relatively obscure movies that were pretty good
Posted by JohnnyAlpha on 8/24/21 at 12:57 am
My Way was a decent war movie although highly implausible. Great action scenes when the Koreans are conscripted to fight for the Japanese against the Russians. I think the movie was probably a blockbuster in Korea although I had never heard of it.
Also, I enjoyed Inferno quite a bit (with Robe...

I watched Primer for the first time last night.
It was pretty good but confusing. Part of the issue was that the sound/dialogue is not always clear so that unless you rewind, you can be in the dark about what is going on. I would catch myself thinking, "what did he just say?" and then thinking, ...
re: Vader’s Model Desk: P-47D Thunderbolt

Interesting to see the comparisons of fighters.
The FW 190 was a nice looking airplane too.
It would be hard to choose between the P-47, P-51 and Corsair for which fighter to be in during a dogfight in WWII....
Relatively obscure movies that were pretty good
Posted by JohnnyAlpha on 8/14/21 at 7:39 pm
If you are looking for movies or a series that you may not have heard about, the following are pretty good:
The Final Cut (2004) with Robin Williams.
Deceived (1991) with Goldie Hawn.
Another Version of You (2019) Indie film about parallel universes.
A series that was superb is the Lost ...
re: “Rogue One” - greatest SW saga movie - agree or disagree?
Posted by JohnnyAlpha on 8/12/21 at 2:08 am
I hated Solo. It was too cartoonish going for laughs over content. Rogue One was excellent. It definitely felt like one of the first three that came out (episode IV, V, and VI).
I liked Revenge of the Sith. Ian McDiarmid is a perfect villain and his cackle is hilarious.
I really lost interes...

re: Has something gone wrong at AT&T - like company wide?
Posted by JohnnyAlpha on 7/26/21 at 8:28 pm
DirecTV was really fantastic in the early 2000s; I was happy to always sign up for the service whenever we moved. They would offer discounts if something was screwed up and would also occasionally reward for loyalty.
Once AT&T bought them out, the service has sucked and the price keeps bouncin...
