Nolan’s “The Odyssey” is a pretty good film but you know what could have it truly epic? Lo Pan!

Just watched Nolan’s “The Odyssey”. The decision to not attempt Mycenaean armor was okay I guess but the multiracial cast bothered me not at all. They dropped a few of the better scenes from the book but added some nice touches that upped the emotional impact. A very good film overall.
The wife and I just signed up for a cruise to the Islamic Republic of Japan. There’s not a lot of info on TripAdvisor so I figure that means our chances of getting a truly ‘authentic’ experience are very good. Wish us well!
I’m sure Byron Allen will be a fine replacement for Steven Colbert. In the name of ‘balance’, we can look forward to humorous quips about the odd-smelling smoke pouring out of the newly built stacks at ICE detention facilities and jokes about what how to accessorize with striped pajamas.
Now that the Iranians hold the key to the 2026 midterm results, what do think the chances are they’ll ‘surrender’ before November?

I drove by local tire store and they had a sign out front telling folks they were having a tire sale. I only caught a brief glimpse but I swear it said “Erotic Tire Sale”. I don’t know what that would involve and I don’t wanna know.
Everybody moaning about Trump should keep in mind that he is indeed like a king. He’s like King Midas except that everything he touches turns to shit.
I’m sick of folks all of a sudden saying “I didn’t vote for this”. Bullshit. You knew who and what he was and what he would do and you voted for him. You voted for it all.
If you’re obeying the law, why does it matter if the cops know how many guns you have? We can play this game all day.

The billionaires who own the streaming services are so to suck up to the Regime that I have little doubt “Melania” will do be on forced rotation across their platforms. But this presents Americans with a new opportunity. Let’s all watch the movie!
Before the outbreak of war, Hitler and Mussolini were the unquestioned leaders of their regimes. However, if those leaders died, there were others would could have continued those governments without major interruption.
So…what are we going to call our new bandit empire? The name ‘United States of America’ just doesn’t have the macho panache needed to convey our new national mission of domination and expropriation. Any thoughts?
If this was only about throwing Maduro in prison, why didn’t Trump’s people just shake him down for some pardon money? Trump wouldn’t have gotten a momentary “I’m a bug, bad, WAR President” boner, but more money in the bank would be a nice consolation.
