AMSTERDAM

…..Great city…..can act stupid there and still keep the “Vegas code”…..what happens in…..anyway,……I don’t want to talk about the city……I want to talk about a new film out called…..Amsterdam……I saw the preview and said,….. “Ok, I’ll give it a shot”…..and while I was enjoying the movie…..I was intrigued by the cast…..Christian Bale…..John David Washington……Margot Robbie…..Anya Taylor-Joy…..Rami Malek…..so far I was like….. “Wow, nice casting”…..as the movie went on, I noticed…..Chris Rock…..Zoe Saldana……Mike Myers……Michael Shannon…..Timothy Olyphant…..Andrea Riseborough….Taylor Swift….she had a short part and was pretty good…..until someone threw her under a truck…..anyway,….Matthias Schoenaerts…..Alessandro Nivola…..Mel Fair…..Ed Begley Jr……and then out of nowhere…..Robert DeNiro popped up…….it’s a great film…..great script and the cinematography is right on point……the director is a close-up guy…..not a wide-shot guy….. and the one thing I kept saying to myself…..during the 2+ hours of watching was…… “Who in the hell isn’t in this film?”

IRANIAN MAN STUCK IN PARIS AIRPORT FOR 18 YEARS DIES……He was the one who inspired Steven Spielberg…..to make that boring film about his situation…..starring Tom Hanks called The Terminal……Mehran Karimi Nasseri died of natural causes…..in terminal 2f at Charles de Gaulle airport…..because he was caught in an immigration trap…..he couldn’t enter France….and had nowhere else to go…..he stay at the airport ended in July 2006…..when he was hospitalized and his make-shift airport home was torn down…..after spending most of the money he received from the film…..he returned to the airport a few weeks ago…..several thousand Euros were found on him at his time of death……he was born in 1945 in Masjed Soleiman…..in the Iranian province of Khuzestan…..he took up residence in the airport in November 1988……after flying from Iran to London…..Berlin and Amsterdam…..in an effort to locate his mother…..he had been expelled from every country he landed in……because he was unable to produce the correct paperwork……in 1999 he was granted refugee status and the right to remain in France…..he said he wasn’t quite sure as to what to do…..leave or stay at the airport……he had papers so he could legally live in France…..but he decided to stay at the airport…..because he was scared of going out into society.

AND OFF TO THE WORLD OF THE STUPID…..

New owners laid off all their employees and told them to re-apply for their jobs…..nobody did

Several schoolchildren in Columbia collapsed after having a Ouija board session

A man leapt in front of a moving train after he realized he was on the wrong platform

A judge convicts a single dad of 3 and doesn’t know it’s her long-lost son

10 BIG SIGNS YOU’RE MARRIED TO SOMEONE WITH A PERSONALITY DISORDER…..Nah,….I love Nicole’s personalities…..she’s loving, kind, giving, sharing…..definitely nutty, quirky, funny as hell…..honest, doesn’t take any bullshit from anyone.….will cuss you out in a heartbeat…..and give you her last dollar in her wallet if you need it…..so, if these could be considered personality disorders…..because I’ve met many people in life who are very different than my wife…..I can live with her disorders…..forever!……the articles disorders are…..paranoid, schizoid, schizotypal, antisocial…..that one is debatable…..just because you don’t like someone or some people…..and you refuse to deal with them….that doesn’t make you anti anything…..borderline……yeah, that’s a coin toss……histrionic…..I think I have to look that one up…..narcissistic….avoidant…..put that one up there with antisocial…..dependent…..and obsessive-compulsive…..like I said before…..I love my wife’s disorders.

STUFF I REALLY DON’T CARE ABOUT……

CRUISE SHIP WITH 800 CASES DOCKS IN SYDNEY…..I really don’t care…..if you’re stupid enough…..to get on a ship with over 4,000 people on it…..while living in close quarters with each other…..knowing that a virus we are dealing with is still infecting people…..you’re stupid…..

TWITTER IS DOWN…..more than a million users since Elon Musk took over…..never had a Twitter account…..never needed one so…..I really don’t care…..

TEXAS FEDERAL JUDGE…..has ruled that discrimination…..against LGBTQ+…..in a healthcare setting is perfectly fine……now that I care about…..homophobia and transphobia discrimination in healthcare is absolutely fine?……seriously?

QATAR’S MANDATORY APPS FOR WORLD CUP ATTENDEES ARE SECURITY NIGHTMARE…..I found this article on something called…..The Jerusalem Post….so,….anyway,…..if this article is true…..that app is something you do not want on your phone.….when you arrive, you have download two apps….Ehteraz…..which is aimed to track COVID-19…..and Hayya…..which will be used to enter games…..as well as gain free access to Qatar’s public transportation for ticket holders…..the problem security has with the Ehteraz app is…..it allows remote access to the users pictures, videos…..and can make unprompted phone calls…..the app requires the location services to be constantly on…..and gives the app the ability to read and write to the file system…..and even though the Hayya app allows ticket holders to enter stadiums and ride the buses…..it also can be used to determine the exact location of the person…..and prevent it from going into sleep mode……and view the phone’s network connections…..according to NRK……the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation…..and I agree with their head of security…… “It’s not my job to give travel advice…..but personally,….I would never bring my phone on a visit to Qatar.”…..with roughly 1.5 million fans expected to watch the games…..a potential leak of data could lead to a massive violation of privacy……like I’ve been saying for the past years…..stay home…..throw your own World Cup parties…..and enjoy the games with your love one…..and same-sex partner……and I do love the French data protection authority CNIL idea…..they said people should travel with a burner phone.
