I haven't seen this before, but I suspect it is very similar to most films of this genre.
1) I do not drink alcohol at all.
2) Stripes (on Prime)
3) Pizza again

I haven't seen this movie nor did I even hear about it until #hatm announced it.
1) We need a Calvin Coolidge movie.
2) Pizza, specifically this one: pepperoni with jalapenos.

I'll have to find out some other day. I don't have access to tonight's #hatm program.
In happier news, I bought two bookcases today from IKEA. I used them to present my many Blu Rays, DVDs, and VHS tapes. They all fit too. See for yourselves!
See you next week, #hatm gang :)

Mom is absolutely right! This is no park! It's the graveyard for tens of thousands. This is my picture of Cemetery Ridge. The white statue in the background is where the rebel advance began. The statue in the foreground is where the Union soldiers stood. It was a bloodbath. #hatm

I returned on Friday from a trip to the Washington DC area. I presented my work from my book in Winchester, VA and Gettysburg, PA. It was a great trip. The latter gave me this:

Here is my book on the shelf at the Harpers Ferry bookstore yesterday. It’s the first time I’ve seen it on sale. With their kind permission, I signed each copy. I love how they surrounded it with books by other excellent historians.

Here's my disc ready to go - alongside Mike Judge's documentary Office Space. Does that make Idiocracy a magic mirror that can see into the future? :) #hatm

I had a Terrence Stamp film festival this weekend. RIP to a legend.
1) can’t say I have one but i applaud historians of such topics.
2) Oppenheimer. Worst is Cobb: the source material was maliciously bad.
3) chips and salsa #hatm
