@joe to my business associates, but you can call me Joe Ortiz.

Listen to the gossip.

I work in the IT/Marketing/Social fields, a Culture Vulture in heart and an one part geek in a all-rounder way!

Shiny is better. ☎

And when that's done, I encourage you to watch the 1989 Al Reinert documentary properly titled "For All Mankind", which documents the entire Apollo space program with great interviews with the astronauts involved. It's easy to find it!

As for my companies that I freelance, they're not as bad as others but still is problematic in terms of lost time, productivity, and business.

What a shitshow.

Something Wild (1961) is one good sleeper film that was nearly forgotten about after watching it.

Glad it didn’t. Caroll Baker was brilliant in this.

@mandy I usually bring some safety gear like disposable gloves and mini sanitizers to airports assuming if it’s allowed if it makes you feel a bit better.

Safe travels!

There are some standalone releases that are only available via this format. The recent 4K UHD release of Taxi Driver being a example but at least that is a bit easier to take them out compared to other Steelbooks.

The one thing that I don't like about getting Steelbooks of home video releases is that it takes a bit more effort to take off the discs from them.

@mandy I usually not go to bed while the fireworks still happening maybe until close to 1AM.

Thankfully I have a off day tomorrow.
