Movies and TV and Songs. Oh My!

Are you going to see the new Godzilla movie? I actually haven't thought about it one way or the other. If we go to the movies, there are plenty from which to choose. Either way, this video is interesting to see the process the sound editors went through to create his roar.

Do you have cable TV? Do you hate them (hate being a strong word, but used in the accompanying link)? Well, look at this to see if your company made the top (bottom?) of the list.

Forty years after Stairway To Heaven was released, a band just now decides to sue for infringement. Listen to the video in the article. You can certainly hear some of the same melody. Still. Forty years?

Did you hear about that town in MI that is going to fine people who swear? Well, I did, and it led to this....













Have you ever written about your displeasure with a company anyway online? What if you were then slapped with a $3,500 fine from that company? Well, this company is doing just that, and says they will defend it in court.

And in a related story, what if you did not want your smart TV to be able to mine and share your viewing habits? LG says that gives them the right to limit the smart TV features you can use.

Walmart wants me to share the 3-digit code from my credit/debit cards. Yeah, that makes me feel safe.

Listen. Did you hear it? Morning has broken, and they want me to help fix it. I need to get going, but I enjoyed our visit. See you soon.

oh yes i heard the story of the state making this plan of citing for cussing? what a money maker this would be--now if barney fife were the deputy or the officer in charge there may be a problem? barney has one bullet, but i wonder if he only has 1 citation paper as well-which he then would be out of room for additions of names in 10 minutes; especially if he was at a ball game of sort...you could skirt around this "violation" of course by speaking in another language, or better yet perhaps speaking in tongues!!---------[ciao]
