  1. We live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a great responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. The luxury of the blind. The luxury of not knowing what I know: That Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and uncomprehensible to you, saves lives. You can’t handle it. Because deep down, in places you don’t talk about, you want me on that wall. You need me there. We use words like honor, code, loyalty.  We use these words as a backbone to a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it. I’d prefer you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I’d suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post.

    Yeah that flash forward scene where he tells Francesca to meet at that pay phone at 3 or whatever on his birthday almost has to be her calling. I’m guessing she either goes dust filter Hoover Max or prison. She got a good look at vacuum dudes business card in that black market book at the vet. Would make sense for her to be the first to use it so Saul knows for a fact it’s legit come BB

    And with the settlement, she will have adequate funds for that decision.

    I’m kicking around a Nashville/Jack Daniel’s trip around Christmas. Maker’s Mark looks to be farthest south leg on the bourbon trail..

    I’m sure it’s a good tour, but how’s the gift shop? 

    If you're going up that way, you should hit Limestone Branch Distillery.  ~15 min south of Maker's.  Maybe just do a tasting (as once you've done one tour, you've done 'em all).  They make a helluva gin there, as well.

    I think they cross paths in Nebraska, but it’s not “happily ever after”

    They continue their tense, but respected, relationship as Kim now oversees Cinnabon's chief competitor in the Omaha Mall, Auntie Anne's.

    Can you show this all the way back to 1600 and include Native Americans?

  6. I read MM's book Greenlights.  His dad passed away during filming.  RL told him to take as much time as he needed.  Was really an important time in his life and his dad, who meant the world to him, passing at that exact time had to be incredibly tough.

  7. Hit Kentucky last weekend.  Hit Jim Beam, Barton, and Limestone.  Massive fail on my part at Jim Beam.  Got there first thing in the morning.  They had bottles of Little Book out for sale.  Figured we would grab a bottle after the tour.  Then I learned (too late) that they only allocate 7 bottles per day.  All gone before our tour at 10 am.
