So I gave her a book and some info on the Bikini Atoll nuclear testing in the Marshall Islands. Shameful what the US put those people through. Also interesting, why Hawaiians love spam so much.

Some of the testing pics that show ships getting sucked into the mushroom cloud are unfathomable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. The people developing the nuclear program had no idea how devastating what they were doing was. Thought about getting a history degree and do teaching and coaching but it wasnt for me. My best friend teaches history and coaches football in Clarksville , TN and agrees that I dont have the patience or personality to be a teacher. Which is why I respect those that do.

I have read that book too. Great insight on the Weirmar Republic and why I'm concerned about the trillions we are spending in stimulus because of the Chinese virus.

Lostin76 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I actually finally started watching The Sopranos last week. I'm almost done with S1 and am really digging it so far. Never really had an interest before, but just needed something to watch after Ozark S3 and this is free on HBO streaming now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, the first several seasons of Sopranos is really good, then it starts going downhill somewhat and the ending sucks. Kinda the same thing with Dexter.

Just like any series they know when it's time to end. About halfway into Season 6 I knew it was time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted April 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 I'm at a stage in my social distancing that I'm actually confusing/intermingling the plotlines of the many shows I'm watching. Lately I've been confusing Narcos Mexico with Ozark 3 with Better Call Sal. Is my problem that i watch too much tv or that I have some weird fascination with Mexican drug cartels right now? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierhoopster Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 Siap— the tv show House is a good one. Had forgotten about it an watched a couple episodes this morning.

SteveS Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 Bosch season 6 dropped last weekend on Amazon. This is a great show based on books by Michael Connelly. The books are excellent as is the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
