Overnight Open Thread (02-15-2017)

Game-of-Thrones-Season-7-ice-dragon.jpg

Yes, I'm one of those people who like Game of Thrones. Sure, there are silly political themes to be seen in it, and it is a bit violent for some, but I love the intrigue and the open display of an idea that has been embraced by man for most of his history....life is cheap.

Besides, it has dragons and zombies and sword fights and hot women and yes, hot men. And the acting is almost uniformly excellent. Oh, that makes me smile too. Most of the actors aren't American...I wonder if there is any connection?

******

Winston Churchill was a smart man....

If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.

FROM THE PASTOR February 5, 2017 by Fr. George W. Rutler is worth reading in its entirety. Don't worry...it isn't long, but it is powerful. Father Rutler is angry that Christians in the Middle East are being ignored, and left to die. This is a robust defense of his faith and his flock, and it is a welcome change from the mealy-mouthed and politically correct pronouncements from so much of our clergy today.

In the margin of a public speaker’s manuscript was the notation: "Weak point. Shout." Such is the rhetoric of those who place emotion over logic and make policy through gangs rather than parliaments. In Athens 2,400 years ago, Aristophanes described the demagogue as having "a screeching, horrible voice, a perverse, cross-grained nature and the language of the marketplace." That marketplace today includes the biased media and the universities that have become daycare centers.

Total Eclipse Of The Heart: Literal Version

I have no idea why this is amusing. Yes, I have a childish sense of humor, but the song is from my youth, and I vividly recall watching the video on MTV (GET OFF MY LAWN!), so I have an excuse. However, commenter Bluebell has no excuse, and she was the one who sent it to me. So if you don't like it you must blame her. [Link goes to a site with more literal videos]

One year later he had written "Mein Kampf," and still The New York Times wouldn't take him seriously. Hitler is a pretty good example of why we might want to take militant Islam seriously. They say they are going to do things, and then they do them. Sort of the opposite of the Republican Party.

I don't know who this guy is, but he sounds like a real Moron....

"The Gays" Are Revolting

In point of fact, I don't think the homosexual community has any real justification for rebelling against the Trump administration, except tribal loyalty to progressives. He's not anti-gay, and has never said a single thing anti-gay to my knowledge.

New [Y]ork City has the largest number of homosexuals in the country (San Fran has a higher rate of homosexuals, but NYC is much larger) and if you live here, you interact with homosexuals every single day. I'm quite certain that Trump has too, and often.


******

I am embarrassed to admit that I had never heard of this band until quite recently. But I am making up for it by plaguing you with my musical failings.


******

And last but perhaps not least, some video of Keanu Reeves' weapons training for "John Wick 2." Everyone around here who has done any shooting that requires speed is well aware how awesomely difficult it is. Reeves seems to be proficient, and that requires lots of practice. I think I saw at least one safety failure, but in his mild defense, everyone does stupid shit occasionally. The last time I did speed shooting I realized at one point, just after I had holstered my pistol that I had been pointing it at my foot. A loaded pistol. Round in the chamber (hammer down, finger off trigger at least). So somebody else gets to throw the first rock.

8 Born and raised in Chicago I hate he Yankees with great Zeal but as a 100% Italian I'm unhappy with how CBD put down his managerial career. Sure you can say his win in 96 was with Bucky's players (he left in 95) but Joe should get credit for the wins in 98,99, and 2000. How many talent LOADED World Series winners never repeat even with the same players? Lots. Don't let his dumb move about changing the rules or you hatred of the Yankees spill over to his mangerial career. Give the devil his due

tu3031 mentioned numerous cable TV series he's never seen. I've never seen most or all the episodes of a lot of shows too, but there's a few I'd like to buy the bluray/DVD sets of, particular Sopranos and Mad Men.

I also love that all the baddies on House Of Cards, even Frank Underwood, are supposedly Democrats. Although I have a hunch I wouldn't be that big on the show anyway.

Oooohhh.... GOT content! Yeah, I resisted watching the damn show until last year, after trying the first couple of episodes. It had Sean Bean, but it was too boring and had too much butt sex. But.... I got roped into jumping in around mid season 4 through 5 last year and got hooked. I like the political jousting and skullduggery that echoes the period of the Saxon, through Norman to the Plantagenet thrones.


I was digging Ramsay Bolton (best character ever), but they bumped him off. Liked The Hound with Arya and who I'm rooting for is Littlefinger. Love that guy. That uppity blond bint with the dragons needs to die.

==================

I don't think they ran out of material. Instead, I think that the executive producers finally got a look at the end picture, realized that they had the freedom to do whatever they felt was necessary to get there, and started culling storylines.

Notice that Dorne hasn't shown up since the first episode of Season 6. That feels like the producers saying, "We know what we need to do, and it's not here."

I loved the first season of Outlander but felt the second season was a healthy step down in quality. And then I read summaries of the rest of the books of the series and discovered that it's just an ongoing series that has no endgame. I'm must less enthusiastic about it now.

Neither should Deadwood. Ending was a bit awkward and forced, but a great story with good acting while it lasted. I figure I'll take the same approach with Game of Thrones. Wait until it's over and the blu-rays get cheap to buy all at once, and then make it a nightly thing until we finish them all.

--

A long time ago, I dated a guy who was out on the road with a band. Can't remember who at the time.

They'd watch Cops on the tour bus. My boyfriend at the time decided that he could never be cop, since he'd get so angry he'd end up beating people to death.

I'd probably do the same thing.

So yes, cops are assholes, but so are the people they catch.

Give the show a shot and persist with it. It's got great characters that develop well and the story cracks along... It mostly doesn't dwell too long on any of the plots, major or sub... so it doesn't get bogged down very often.

Their injuries didn't appear serious or life threatening, they were alert and able to move. So, of course, our concern is the potential lawsuit. What is the usual outcome for something like that, does our insurance company ride herd on that and pay the settlement or award? I assume there's probably a cap on what insurance will pay? What if the award exceeds that cap? My son is 24, lives at home, was driving a vehicle in my name and on my insurance policy. Am I vulnerable as well? Thanks.

159 GOT has been girlz power for at least last two seasons. Don't know if that was Martin's intention or HBOs.

That's on HBO. Just like everything else in the entertainment world, they got harangued by the SJWs for too much rape and not enough female agency.
The writers claim they didn't let it affect their plot choices, but it's obvious it did.

==================

The creator also grew to hate his fans.

I think this is mostly obvious in two ways:

1) The ending to the show. That's not a narrative denouement. It's a middle finger.

2) The second to last season included an entire episode that showed Tony's daughter and her boyfriend working through major problems then deciding to get married. In the final season, there is a single line of dialogue to explain away the guy's absence (they broke up). One of your most important secondary characters goes from engaged to single, and all that deserves is a single line of dialogue? That's a middle finger.

The Sopranos is the best of the bunch. I've watched House of Cards, but the BBC version from a few decades ago is far superior. Also shorter. It was a miniseries. Something like 4 episodes, and done. The American version is just to stretched out and it is getting repetitive.

I liked Breaking Bad, but not as much as some of the other HBO series.

The Wire, Rome, Deadwood, Generation Kill, and The Sopranos are the ones I would recommend.

Also, the spin-off from Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul has been pretty good, perhaps even superior to its parent.

I think they wanted to make some point about all the colors of the rainbow, but it was just too fantastical. Plus, once they went explicitly into male homosexual sex, I had to say goodbye. Just not something I want to watch.

This. I live in GA too. Last accident I was in was 2010. I was in the middle of an accident sandwich, but got the ticket for being shoved into the car in front of me.

Turned it over to Insurance to handle. I heard some of the billboard attorneys got involved, but it never came near me personally.

Do not listen to the advice to pay for your own attorney at this time. If necessary, that can come later.

243 Yes, Rome is great, but has the opposite problem to The Sopranos. Suits killed it early, so last few episodes get collapsed for time.

Love The Wire. Last season has some holes, but overall it's my favorite long series. Amazing ensemble cast. Themes play out over the full five seasons. Season four is off the charts good when the "kids" get introduced. Despite the sometimes leftist bent of the creators, main theme is that institutions fail but personal redemption is possible. Bubbles!

245 The Sopranos was the last TV series I watched. It was mostly awesome and rarely hit bum notes. But I'm Italian-American and from New Jersey and I recognized those people and knew most of the filming locations. I also had a Russian stripper girlfriend at the exact time Tony Soprano did and let me tell you, they got that right too.
But I can't watch those episodes anymore because it reminds of how much better my life was then......

Van Helsing wasn't good. Not turrible. But not really good. Dracula was pretty much useless. The special effects were... underwhelming to say the least. Could've been so much better. I mean, a vampire movie that had Kate Beckinsale in it... how could it go wrong? Oh, looks at Underworld 2, 4, and probably 5.

But Underworld (the original) was fantastic. As was the original Blade. (until the final fight between Frost and Blade. Yeesh. What a failure that was.

268 There's a show called "Jail" that is similar to "Cops". It shows the arrested people being brought into the county jail for processing. A good share of the people are drunk, on drugs, have horrible attitudes, or mentally ill.

Not sure if it has been said, but the first Season of GoT is essentially the first book. Later seasons advance the plot/story generally, but there is no correspondence to a season per book. Also, the writers start adding shit that isn't in the books. I think I watched up to the colorful wedding, so I'm behind at least two seasons.

I finished all the books, though.

The first two seasons of Spartacus were fantastic (except for the fact that Starz has a thing about showing dicks all over the place).

The third and fourth seasons of Spartacus blew chunks. Not worth watching. You'd have more fun watching the first two seasons again.

The 2nd season of True Detective was underrated. It wasn't as good as the first, plus the whole thing was different. But, for me, once I got past comparing it to the 1st season, I enjoyed it.

The opposite with Band of Brothers. The first season was awesome, but the second, The Pacific, was disappointing. I even went back later and gave it a second chance. I was right in the first place: it sucked.

330 Pleased to report that John Wick 2 is Good of Its Kind and better than the first, IMO. Expect it to win next year's Oscar for Set Design including for its homage to the Hall of Mirrors scene in Orson Welles' The Lady from Shanghai.

It takes a side in the 1911 vs Glock wars. If you're a John Wick you need more than seven round magazine capacity, you see.

If you watch The Wire you also see some subtle homages to Homicide, including a reprise of the photocopier trick.

Opposition can have organized and un-organized factions, working toward the same purpose.

This is part of the reason for getting a personal lawyer - to deal with your own insurance company. For a small accident this is usually no big deal but the one described (the car rolling a few times, etc.) it's best to have ones own counsel to deal with his own insurance company and make sure that he doesn't get roped into anything stupid.

The Wire was awesome.
I liked the dialogue. It really sounded like how people really talk to each other.
After Deadwood was fcuked by HBO, I watched Milch's "John From Cincinnati". It was quirky and weird, and I liked it. Unfortunately, that also got cut short and they tried to wrap crap up in the last episode.

413 My favorite dramas, in no particular order, have been Homicide, Breaking Bad, The Wire, Deadwood, House M.D., and The Sopranos.

Comedies would take me a while to list out but the only show running now I watch regularly that I'd consider comedy is Better Call Saul. Cheers and The Office (both UK and US) are probably my favorites ever.

422 I saw Grace Potter and the Nocturnals on the main stage at the Newport Folk Festival in about 2004, 2005, somewhere around that time. The band had only been together for a year and were playing out of Nashville. They got pretty good billing, considering the late acts on the second day are usually Wilco and CSN and Bob Dylan and shit. Grace and the band were just ok.

Then I saw them at the House of Blues in Boston two years ago and that band was lights out and on fire. Grace Potter has been touring non-stop since I last saw her and it shows. She was nothing short of incredible. One of the best live shows I've ever seen.

Did you or someone close to you have glioblastoma or are you on the treatment side? My fil understands the risk but there wouldn't be progress in treatments if they didn't try new things. With this type of tumor it seems like, for some, there is really nothing to lose by trying to get into a study or trying something promising. There are no guarantees in life. If you have any suggestions you'd like to share I would like to hear them. I am not being snarky, I would like to hear any insight into this horrible disease. Thanks.

There was lot of good drama and writing, but I gave that show up in season 3. The character Dorian Grey is about teh ghey and nothing else.

What she likes best in life is receiving the adoration of the masses, doing social justice (not necessarily being around for the consequences), and burning people alive. I'd rather live in Queen Cersei's kingdom. Knowing very well that Cersei's basically Hillary.

If you subscribe to HBO Now, you can stream seasons 1-6 for $15 a month, plus all their other shows.

It works on almost any streaming device (Roku/AppleTv), Iphone/Ipod/Ipad, Android device. IIRC, when you sign up, the first month or week is free.

Posted by: lindafell little rally hitler's schadenbutton!

Treatment side. I have had many patients in studies and have encouraged many patients to enroll, but by definition in a well designed study not all patients will be assigned to the experimental treatment. Some studies end up stopped due patients doing less well than standard treatment. Being on a study protocol can actually limit treatment options. So, it is possible to lose. Saddest cases I've seen are patients who spend the time they have chasing all over the country looking for a cure that doesn't exist instead of spending time with family and ticking off some bucket list.

501 Thanks to MeTV and Antenna TV (which I found locally only a few months ago), I can watch both of Bob Newhart's shows.

Antenna ran the series finale of Newhart (where he wakes up in bed as Bob Hartley with Suzanne Pleshette )just last month.

I used to would have said I liked the second series, Newhart, better than the first, but now, watching them side-by-side, I can't really say which I like the best. Both are equally good.

And Newhart took about two seasons to get into the groove. It didn't really good until Stephanie and Michael became regulars. Of course, Larry and the Daryls came a little before, and they were a big part of, but it took Michael and Stephanie to make the complete package.

Many years ago I had to take my cat Smokey (half feral/half domesticated...weighed a solid 18 pounds) in for his shots. One dose had to be administered via nasal drops. The vet tried to hold Smokey, but he wasn't having any of it. So I told the vet I would hold him...not a positive experience. I was in the Navy at the time and was on my lunch break, so I was in uniform. Needless to say, Smokey dug into my uniform top with his claws. By the time I got back home to drop him off, I had blood spots all over my top from him digging into my chest. The little bastard!

Also, at his blog the other day, Ken Levine was sharing information about the production of Cheers. On the set, the bar was fully functional... but had no refrigeration. George Wendt et al had to drink what Levine called "warm 3.2 beer" onstage.

And, at one point in the first season when Cheers wasn't doing great, NBC asked if they could try shooting on videotape. They did a test run and, according to Levine, the bar looked horrible on videotape. Something about shooting on film made it look much more real.

Two of the detectives arguing about the merits of the CFL versus NFL rules; and when the Colts Stallions had a police-appreciation day and the cast were on the field with real Baltimore cops.

And I liked that when they introduced Giordello's son, the actor (Gus from Breaking Bad) really was half Italian and half black in real life as Giordello was supposed to be. (Although I only learned that when I read Giancarlo Esposito's bio at IMDB due to Breaking Bad---and it helped for this Canadian that his surname is Esposito!)

Watching the second season now, and knowing how it turned it, it's fun to watch it come together -- see them figure out what worked. You can see Stephanie coming into her own, becoming more insane. And then they hit on Peter Scolari as Michael.

I saw the first episode he appeared in the other day. He was not the same Michael you remember. But you can see him and Stephanie transforming into the zany characters you remember.

There have been two times in my life that the IC people have gone up against a President, that I know of. Each time it involved secrets that could be, or were being compromised and sex. But also each time both of these things were kept hidden to keep the secrets and/or to hide that there was even a war being fought.

Going public is an unusual tactic. It smells more like the usual lefty thing of smearing their opponent by accusing them of doing exactly what they, the left, are, have, and will be doing. The leakers saying we can't brief the President because his administration will leak classified info, so we're leaking classified info first.

564 Trump administration having leaks... glad I'm no longer in one of those vaults. If I heard some weenie say that, well the -84 makes a great blunt instrument. And I would be screaming about Hillary's water closet server.

565 Also from the Zerohedge piece.

"So, why are they worried?

The current and former officials said the decision to avoid revealing sources and methods with Mr. Trump stems in large part from the president's repeated expressions of admiration for Russian President Vladimir Putin and his call, during the presidential campaign for Russia to continue hacking the emails of his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton."

So their stated worries are based on misconstructions and lies that the press has blasted out at the behest of the DNC and the Clinton campaign? Either they are not very intelligent intelligence people or they are also just lying Democrat hacks in intel cover.

Newhart, when it came into its own, had a lot in common with Green Acres, and I realized that's why I liked it so. That is apparently the kind of comedy that really tickles my pickle.

It's the sane man, the normal guy, thrown into some surreal situation surrounded by lunatics. But the lunatics are all happy and lunacy is what is normal to them. Save for the sane normal man (Oliver Douglas or Bob Newhart), who has to be normal and when he goes a little off the rails, all the lunatics are shocked and offended.

Note how Lisa fit right in with the lunatics, as different as she was.

And CBS was doing well with Green Acres, Beverly Hillbillies and the others, but got ashamed of the the rural bumpkin image and so cancelled them all to be more sophisticated. Idiots.

590 Bertram, The Waltons seemed to be the one show that bucked the rural purge. And it was a yuge hit in the early to mid 1970s, maybe because the purge made sure there was nothing else similar to it elsewhere on TV.

In fact I think at one time CBS' two most-watched shows were the polar opposites, The Waltons and All In The Family.

604 There was lot of good drama and writing, but I gave that show up in season 3. The character Dorian Grey is about teh ghey and nothing else. He is a wrecking ball to the show on the scale of Jar Jar Binks. Granted the character that Oscar Wilde created never changes and never learns, but that's the unanswered task for the writers.

I got the impression that they were trying to set up for a season 4 at the beginning of season three and suddenly found out that they were cancelled. I didn't have a problem with Dorian Grey. His character was a monster of a different sort than all the others, but no less dangerous or monsterous. He was seductive, but his seduction destroyed others, as we see with Lily and her little army.

Eva Green decided she wanted to move on to other projects, hence the show concluding with season 3.

670 If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.

This is why the media "buries" certain types of stories, and why Merkel seeks to prevent individuals from communicating freely on facebook about "refugees", so that people are not aware that there is something they should be fighting, until it is too late.

Posted by: BourbonChicken at February 16, 2017 03:42 AM (VdICR)

688 Willy was brilliant.
Fascinating propaganda, I can almost picture the DNC as the Duke of Gloucester:
Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this sun of York;
And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.
Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths;
Our bruised arms hung up for monuments;
Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings,
Our dreadful marches to delightful measures.
Grim-visaged war hath smooth'd his wrinkled front;
And now, instead of mounting barded steeds
To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,
He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber
To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.
But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks,
Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass;
I, that am rudely stamp'd, and want love's majesty
To strut before a wanton ambling nymph;
I, that am curtail'd of this fair proportion,
Cheated of feature by dissembling nature,
Deformed, unfinish'd, sent before my time
Into this breathing world, scarce half made up,
And that so lamely and unfashionable
That dogs bark at me as I halt by them;
Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace,
Have no delight to pass away the time,
Unless to spy my shadow in the sun
And descant on mine own deformity:
And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover,
To entertain these fair well-spoken days,
I am determined to prove a villain
And hate the idle pleasures of these days.
Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous,
By drunken prophecies, libels and dreams,
To set my brother Clarence and the king
In deadly hate the one against the other:
And if King Edward be as true and just
As I am subtle, false and treacherous,
This day should Clarence closely be mew'd up,
About a prophecy, which says that 'G'
Of Edward's heirs the murderer shall be.
Dive, thoughts, down to my soul: here
Clarence comes.

The world these people always build ends up being gray, sterile, and utterly devoid of joy or hope.

Their use of Twitter is how they enforce their own little ideological Borg collective. Any drone that shows any sign of independence is mercilessly dogpiled until they recant and return to aping a consensus opinion that nobody particularly loves or believes, but feels compelled to follow. Because they can't love it or believe it, all they can do is feel guilt for not loving it or believing it, and feel like they've won approval when they tear down someone else for transgressing.

713 The Left is similar to the old internet story about the banana experiment.

5 monkeys are placed in an enclosure with a ladder and a bunch of bananas at the top.

The monkeys all scramble for the ladder, and as soon as one reaches for the bananas, every monkey gets hosed down with freezing water. They try a few more times, and learn to associate the bananas with the water blast.

A monkey is removed, and a new one introduced. The new one goes for the bananas, and gets beaten down by the other 4.

A second monkey is removed, and the previous newcomer joins the 3 oldsters in beating down the new newcomer.

Keep repeating, and pretty soon no monkey will go for the bananas, despite none of the remaining monkeys having ever been sprayed.

Exactly. They turn the demonization into a tradition carried out by pure reflex. The motives, the ideas behind it, the things they're protecting aren't thought about at all. The nail that sticks up gets pounded, and those that do the pounding feel good about themselves. Nobody questions it.

730 Grace Potter has been around a while now, surprised you just found out.

You should see her live, it is worth it.

The video is just a taste, she's even more confident now.

733 Chicago Tribune doubles down on Trump stories, Impeachment, etc. Oh by the way 3 children have been shot and killed in the last 3 days......

Comment in the paper: Boy its amazing how all Constitutional these Liberals get about
impeachment when their candidate loses. My advice to Trump, "dont trust
Obama". Those are all his people sabotaging your office putting their
own selfish selves above the security of their country. What else would
you expect from this bunch?

736 Jean, did you guys have an RSVP before naming the location?

737 I couldn't be a cop at all -- not temperamentally suited. Somebody would give me some lip, dis me, and I'd lose my shit and do something terrible.

A good technique to avoid that is verbal judo (yes, it is a thing) and realizing that the person "dising" you is purposely trying to make you loose your temper. That doesn't always work and you end up rolling around in the mud, but I always preferred talking to fighting.

Like the man said, you get more with kind words and a gun than with kind words alone.

738 I'm not much for GoT but my wife loves it, so I put up with it.

It's a great reminder, however, of what happens when rule of law falls apart. Do progressives really want that?

Also, that the "politics is not personal, the personal is politics." Everytime I see some shit-stirring by some hellhole third world nation (North Korea, Uganda, Russia), I'm reminded that they're doing that because the guy in the big seat feels like his dick is too small and has to pump it up.

That's why Democrat Frank Church screwed the world over by stopping political assassinations. Dictators are always willing to sacrifice their people if it makes their dick hard. They're less willing when they and their family are in the gun sights.

739 @726 Frankly, I'd have gone with 10, 2 and 4, like Dr Pepper.
A lot like Dr Pepper IYKWIM. You just knew this'd work for Vic!

Let's not let the media gaslight us on this one: Pudzer went down because he green-lighted those beautiful women eating cheeseburgers. It was just too damn American for them. We owe him a vote of thanks for his service.

741 One year later he had written "Mein Kampf," and still The New York Times wouldn't take him seriously.
