  1. I have tickets to see this tomorrow morning at Lincoln Center Imax. I have been doing a rewatch this afternoon/evening. How the hell did I miss Club Obi Wan at the beginning of Temple of Doom?
  2. I loved Godfather I, but I felt that it dragged some in places. I never felt that II dragged at all. I was completely invested in the story. The acting in both was abolutely top notch. Honestly, best one two punch in cinema.
  3. Watched Godfather II and III on my flight today (watched the first one on my way to Spain a few weeks ago). I honestly do not think I've ever sat down and watched the third one at all. Holy shit, Sofia Coppola was horrible. Also, the storyline was kind of nuts. II is still my favorite of the lot.
  4. Coney Island is Far. The D, F, N, and Q lines all go to Coney Island.
  5. I am on my way home. Working on write ups on the flight while watching the end of The Godfather. Godfather Part II will be next on tap.
  6. Stockholm is really beautiful. I had reindeer tonight, and holy shit, was it good. First for me. Am packing it in early tonight as I am still recovering from last week at work (going out WAY too much).
  7. Ah. A cab to Williamsburg is about 30 mins. https://www.grubstreet.com/2022/12/best-pizza-neighborhood-williamsburg-nyc.html#_=_ I've heard excellent things about L'industrie.
  8. Just take a cab to Midwood and go to Di Fara. Probably closest to JFK.
  9. I usually pick Alka Seltzer and that takes care of it. Of course, with the flight shuffle, I forgot to pack it. Sigh. I do have Prilosec at home, and it is a miracle worker. I hadn’t had it this bad since 2021 in Naples, so I didn’t think about it. Sigh. It’s ok. I’ll be back to Madrid. Now have stuff to do next time.
  10. I wasn’t feeling too hot yesterday. Probably somewhat hungover, but increasingly, with my hangovers comes crippling acid reflux. I’ve had problems with it off and on for years, but yesterday it was especially uncomfortable given the extreme heat. Today didn’t feel as hot as yesterday, which is a good thing…but yeah, it’s fucking hot.
  11. ATC everywhere is not great. This is something the govt should absolutely sort the fuck out. Investment needs to happen in training and the systems themselves.
  12. That’s around the corner from my hotel. I’m bar crawling home. Probably my last stop.
  13. Spain is awesome. 3 Euros by the glass crisp white Spanish white wine is fucking badass. Bosch in the Prada…
  14. Their office building is next to mine. 🤬
  15. Thank you. Toledo is beautiful. There is a TON of history there. So, I've been MIA as I was recovering from a crazy night out on Monday all day yesterday. I need to sit down and write up my dinner from Monday. It was outstanding. As a result of partying a bit too much, first photos from Madrid. This is part of the train station.
  16. Given the historic nature, I think this should be televised. I also think a judge worth their salt would keep Dotard on a short leash. But I’m not a lawyer, so I defer to those who have experience with this.
