When automation goes tits up.

When the power went out a couple of days ago, my electricity was back in a few hours, but my home automation didn’t come back.

More historic events

Blowing up drug boats was working out, but after doing that a few dozen times, it gets boring.  This was one way to shake things up.

I do appreciate the symmetry.

Roofman is a movie that most people haven’t heard of or have already forgotten. 7 out of 10.

This has been a bad year for big budget movies, so movie reviewers are recommending movies that were overlooked.  That’s how I ended up with Roofman.

It’s based on a true story about a guy who couldn’t get on track after leaving the Army.   He started robbing fast food restaurants by cutting a holes through the roofs.  When the cops were after him, he spent several months living inside a Toys ‘R’ Us store.

Early on in the movie, one aspect of the story was too incredible to suspend disbelief.

Sparky is a fierce snow dog. 

He looks like a gremlin that someone fed after midnight.
