Yeah, you couldn't pay me to sit at the theatre in Salina or JC anymore compared to Manhattan\Wichita AMC theatres. Just not worth the difference in quality of seating\video\audio\price.

I think the HRPT would be fun, I just don't know if I could afford it with today's gas prices in my old IHC. That would have to take place of my yearly Colorado trip, which I don't know if I am willing to consider giving that up.

Just plugged this little guy into the truck, hooked onto the truck's WiFi, configured it with my Google account, and loaded apps:
Granted there was some fiddling around that involved sideloading a couple of apps, but I'd still give it an A- in overall rating.
Was able to fullscreen video apps for streaming apps and then have the Google Maps navigation shrunk down but still giving directions.
Couldn't have imagined the trip without it, those 10-12 hour drives in a single day get brutal after a while.

Our problem is finding the time off anymore. We have a couple trips for spring break and Jamie's birthday that are half-week trips, our big two week trip in the summer, and a week off for Christmas\New Year's\boy's birthdays so I don't know if I'll have any PTO leftover for another week off.

I finished up season 4 of Stranger Things over the weekend. Season 5 is slated for 2 or more years from now. I will have to start all over to remember what I watched in the first seasons by then.
I love Matt's Off-Road videos, and I love Vice Grip Garage, their editing, information, and video quality is great. I like Rudy, and I am all for what he is trying to do, but his videos are really stretched out and lack the chemistry, so far. I am sure it will improve over time. He also doesn't quite have the video presence that Matt has. Maybe it will come with time. Also he is working alone, which makes the tomfoolery and jokes more difficult, as well as the inside jokes and pranks.
I don't watch a bunch of Fab Rats now that he is mostly done with the Golden Nugget, and I don't watch much of Robby Layton, but there are, I'm certain, a lot of things I could learn from them.
It would be awesome to have all of those tools and shop area at my fingertips.

I've been watching the TV Series Mr Inglesias for a few days. It's Fluffy doing parts of his on stage acts while being a high school teacher. It's corny/funny sometimes, and its pretty "Woke" When I started it, I figured it was just a few shows, but it went on for a few seasons. It became pretty repetitive.
I can't say that I have found anything to watch recently that has really grabbed my attention.
The wife wants to go to a movie this weekend. She doesn't know which one yet.
