Bumped from forever ago but...

Over Spring Break, I'm watching a VHS tape of Pooh's Grand Adventure with my great niece and nephew (yes, I am that old). We watched this movie a lot when my kids were little and I never picked up on this line.

When the party is off on their adventure, Owl gives them the send off of

"I salute you! And those of you doomed to never return, I salute you twice!"

HOLY shite!!! What a line to be placed in a straight to VHS movie.

I’d have to go with either Ledger or De Niro. A previous poster explained Bob’s achievement. Ledger took a decades old existing character and made it his own, setting a new standard. I can’t think of a lot of similar examples.

I think y’all always disrespect Moore in these threads. For Your Eyes Only and The Spy Who Loved Me are incredible movies. I’d have them in my top 5 Bond movies. I don’t think any of them aren’t entertaining. While Brosnan oozes 007 vibes and Craig nails the bravado with some emotion, some of their movies are just bleh.

I pulled the trigger and got these. However, Bluetooth doesn’t penetrate water. What type of iPhone strap do you use for swimming?

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the India Pale Ale was identified as the most popular style, serving as the top pick in 21 states. Just behind it, though, is the stout, which has been surging in popularity stateside in recent years, and claims the top spot in 20 states. But while some states might be split between their love for the IPA and the stout, there is one common thread: Americans love high-ABV brews. Of the 51 favorites, 28 are imperial-strength beers.

Alabama hasn’t caught up to the stout’s popularity yet. It’s annoying going to a place that has a crap ton of crafts on tap in December and not one stout. Who wants a sour or a juicy IPA in the middle of winter?

Louisiana-DDH Ghost.

Alabama- Good People Hitch Hiker IPA. This must be a seasonal, I’ve never seen it. I’m surprised it wasn’t Trim Tab IPA. It’s rated pretty high on Untappd.

I just finished an incredible book. It’s nonfiction, and combines the Cold War military with an amazing biography.

It’s called Boyd. It’s about a fighter pilot who is likely the most influential military strategist since Sun Tzu.

I wonder how much is due to the rise of pot. Not saying that's bad I just wonder if that's a big part of it.

About 99%.

It’s “bad” only in that for some reason, being stoned and smelling like weed all day has lost its stigma. When I have carline duty, I notice parents who drop their kids off and pick them up reeking of marijuana. Unlike alcohol, which when people smell it on you in the middle of the work day, raises a lot of flags.

High school diplomas are already an attendance award, why not make college degrees the same thing?

Heck, can’t I just write a check? That’s all they really want anyway.

Yes.

Assuming that other factors have been ruled out like

Resentment, physical attraction, high stress, depression, etc. often lead to women not being attracted to their spouses.
