Are American Cities Prepared For Massive Tsunamis?

Chimpanzees love horror films, research finds

From the report:

“According to researchers in Japan, Chimpanzees fall into the first group. When shown a ‘horror’ film, featuring an actor dressed as a King Kong attacking a human, the selected Chimps watched on intensely, neither covering their eyes nor accepting treats as they may distract from the viewing.
In the 40-second film, King Kong is taunted by a human on the other side of a cage. The ape then breaks free, attacking the human. The human then grabs a red hammer and precedes to hit King Kong. Frightening stuff.”

Not sure what if any lesson this has.. What if any value possessing this information does.. But it sure it interesting and explains quite a bit to me.

M Night gets an unfair shake so many times over.. Even with the VISIT. I saw it and loved it.. But I loved some of the other films people called stinkers. But I do think THE VISIT was just fine, just completely fine.

Debate sweat

I wonder who has to empty the buckets of sweat that dripped off Ted Cruz’s face and Scott Walker’s lips tonight? It got hot. I almost thought Marco Rubio’s comb over would begin to droop down.

But calm, cool, and collective Donald with hair that never moved..
