The Last Boy Scout came out when I was in college. Shane Black's razor-sharp script. Tony Scott’s kinetic style. Bruce Willis and Damon Wayans delivering some of the most quotable lines in action movie history. I was hooked. I even had the good fortune to meet Shane around that https://t.co/nF02pvrRHy

If younger diners see no meaningful difference between Cracker Barrel and Denny’s, Chili’s, or Applebee’s, and older patrons feel alienated, the chain risks being stuck in a no-man’s-land: not authentic enough for its heritage crowd, not cool or innovative enough for the kids.

A new car that sold new for $2,200 in 1970 would adjust for inflation to roughly $19,000 today, yet even the most basic new vehicles start around $30,000-35,000. The difference? Largely the cost of regulatory compliance. The indirect costs of big government… https://t.co/5ewQ4oo8VM

In Mark Wahlberg’s sci-fi action movie “Infinite” (2021), his character Evan McCauley breaks into a plane mid-flight. Then it falls apart for me. Thermoplastics, not steel plates, are used in cranioplasty — and they aren’t bulletproof. The rest of this sequence is completely https://t.co/TjZPnOeO1o

To combat spam, I restricted my email address to whitelisted senders only. In recent years, businesses have been complicating this by outsourcing back-office functions to third parties who send mail through other domains. I recently whitelisted a new doctor’s office’s domain, https://t.co/wRd0vk6o7c

Instead of taking away her tablet, her parents recorded this and uploaded it to the Internet? 🤔 Somehow that’s more believable than someone inventing a random video’s description for clicks... https://t.co/7HaFxk56ST
