Memorial Day. Appropriate, yes?

Remember, these are the same guys who said you could put a single nuclear weapon 800 feet under the surface of an asteroid “the size of Texas” and split it in half. Anybody who really expects strict accuracy from these guys, as opposed to a vaguely impressionistic yet superficially inspiring flag-wavingly heroic “interpretation” of history, is barking up the wrong master’s thesis.

**Cervaise** , yeah, I know. I didn’t see that one, either. I’ve nearly grabbed it off the shelves a few times, but I’ve been able to resist. Michael Bay’s stuff just doesn’t turn me on.

BTW, I was glad to see the new reviews at the website. I visit it often.
