Why do I get this nagging feeling that "Back to the Future" would work in some regards? Hell "Oil Storm" works perfectly well too!
Forgive me if these have been said, I'm very tired
Deep Impact
The War
Falling Down
The Way We Were
Something Wicked This Way Comes
Tremors
Where The Truth Lies
Telling Lies in America
Digging to China
The End of the Lines
Planes Trains and Automobiles
Enormous Changes at the Last Minutes
Search for Tomorrow
(big ups to whoever can tell me what those last 8 have in common!)

Thanks for asking guys.
My brother's in the Navy like I said. He'll be coming in for his leave (a pretty long one I think.) I was worried back in May when he went out for his first deployment (he's been in for 2 1/2 years now out of 6). I was concerned because it was around the same time I became PO Aware. He was deployed to the Horn of Africa near many Middle Eastern hotspots. Nothing went down and it was pretty much a touch and go thing. Kinda like, just get to the Horn to say you went and start heading back sorta thing. He's been pissing around in little villages in Greece and Italy since then. But when he comes in for leave, instead of the whole family going to the Salt Lake Airport (about a 3 hour drive from here in Pocatello Idaho), I'm going myself and I intend to use that time to really uncork this stuff on him for the first time. I wonder how it will come out and what will happen.
He's kind of a misanthropist but not a pessimist, so this could be curious. But I figure he's gotta be the one to know.

Interesting situation. A twin who understands PO to tell the other twin. Will the second twin deny or accept the dire problem?He's kind of a misanthropist but not a pessimist, so this could be curious. But I figure he's gotta be the one to know.

Romantic notions of the postal service expressed by Kevin Costner in The Postman aside, what are your thoughts on this matter?
Someone with better photoshop skills than me should do a parody on having to walk or ride a horse down the interstate to get the mail delivered.

My thought is to get The Postman and watch it.

Conceptually it is great. It's not that it was neccessarily over-written that made it difficult to watch at times... it's just that the Editor was used sparingly. Scenes that last 10 minutes should have been cut to 5 or less. It's about 3 hours if youve got the patience... yet a do recommend it.

I'm a patient sort. It's now no. 1 on my Blockbuster Online video rentals. Thanks, Cleisthenis. BTW, I once started a thread asking people to say what the story was behind their PO.com names. Cleisthenis is interesting, what's the idea behind it?-
