Huh, It was funny under Bush but I can see a take going sour now.

My favorite joke is the doctor who talks about his ex wife being a pilot. She crashes her plane in a sight gag.

As for Carl's Jr, I still say their slogan is "golly YOU I'M EATING"

Apparently Costco tells employees to never say "Welcome to Costco, I love you."

To be fair there are some great nuggets in the film, especially the expansion of Carl's Jr into a major commercial and governmental entity.  And the Costco nestled into the fields of garbage with the engaging greeters.  The tattoed name of the male protagonist is good, too.  I might have finished it but my husband, who is a great deal less tolerant of crappy movies, just bolted so I had to turn it off.

Come to think of it, "Welcome to Costco, I love you" is one of the most articulate things anyone is capable of saying in that future.  It's a complete sentence and is, for all intents and purposes, grammatically correct.

TNG and myself took the opportunity to watch Predator: Killer of Killers while the rest of the family were in christ country for a week. That film really surprised me as it was so well done. I think the animation actually worked better than 'live action'. I really hope they make it an ongoing thing.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.
