Dun-turk(ey)

AITOOW thinks Dunkirk was average at best? There was no there - there. I like war movies. I like Nolan. This was just pretentious flotsam. A film school vanity piece. Boring. Is he trying to be Terrence Malick?

Mr Ice Guy

AITOOW knows that you can't tell a girl that you have no future together and maintain an exclusive relationship? A girl will only give herself (even if she agrees that this is just a fling) exclusively if she thinks it will reward her in some way. Not that she may EVER give herself exclusively to one man without some artificial tempering. She can't compartmentalize a unit of time. She thinks holistically or not at all. Time is all one to her or she really doesn't have the ability to conceptualize 'the future". If you think you have struck an agreement to be exclusive for a set period of time, you will be the only one agreeing (or the only one capable of agreeing) in good faith. You are better off just leading them on. It seem ungentlemanly, but, the rules must consider the opponent when there is no referee or penalty.

Read Ink/Red Inc

AITOOW wonders what ever happened to investigative journalism? It's mostly just cut and paste or opinion. Especially on tv. They might as well just read the newspaper like they do on some British morning programs. Was it always this way and I just didn't realize? Were they just aping the AP and UP in the old days? Is there a wholesaler/rack jobber for news? Why do they separate print and television anyway? Why didn't the Post or Times gravitate to tv when that started? Or when the financials migrated. All we hear is that print is a losing proposition. How expensive is a studio and a few puppets? They are subsidizing their competition as it is now.

The Lovers. The Dreamers. And Thieves.

AITOOW thinks that the La La Land "theme" song is a rip off of the Rainbow Connection?

Food For Thought

AITOOW who wonders how many "new" dishes were inspired by food touching/mixing on a buffet plate?
