    Read the book. great stuff. thanks for heads up on the movie.
    “If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
    -Samuel Adams

    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

    Watched this last night. If you haven't seen it, it's well worth your time. Amy Adams AND Glen Close should win Oscars.

    My kid got up off the couch after watching Hillbilly Elegy and came over to my wife, then me. A big, sincere, near teary-eyed hug and "thank you" followed.

    He was shocked that way of life is "normal".

    Thanks, mate! I'd recommend The Black Mirror, if you haven't watch it yet.
