I saw this when it first aired and it messed me up in the best way, and looking back it holds up very well. This was the first time I really took note of the director's name, in spite of really liking his previous TV movie, Duel.
HBD, Mr. Spielberg.

I'm always hesitant to recommend products, but after trying plugins and auto spraying devices, I finally switched to gel deodorizers because they are not supposed to leave lingering residues. So far, I've been very happy (we have three cats) and do recommend.

Watching, "Pluribus," and I can't help but be reminded of many other SF stories, but this one leaps to mind most strongly for some reason, and if none of you have read it, seek it out along with the original novelette, "With Folded Hands."
I also have a soft spot for Jack -- I was his paperboy.

Long day. We saw last night something was wrong with Gypsy’s mouth and that one of her incisors was loose. Got her in immediately and the poor thing had to have almost all of her teeth removed due to infection.
Such a trooper, though.
