On my watch list. One of the good things about old age memory is that even though I've seen this years ago, I can watch it again and it will seem like a new movie that I've only seen previews of. Sometimes that even works on shows/movies I saw a year ago. About time to watch the Punisher again...

Just hope they're not liberals, they don't want to offend the minorities.

Apparently The Punisher dropped off Netflix, but it looks like Disney Plus has it. Good thing my SIL doesn't use it and I have the account on my TV. I might fire that up tonight.

Didn't know that, nuts. Dropped Disney a while back, got it for the grandkids and I think most of their new programming is crap. The Gkids can watch it at home, anyway.

No streaming services here but Netflix and I only have that for my lovely bride. Tough not having ESPN during college football season but when just have to watch I go to my favorite sports bar and enjoy. I am perfectly content with the antenna TV. I think I will look into Pacific.

Afternoon Mick. I enjoy reading. A lot. I also have enjoyed many Stephen King books in the past. His new one, Holly was just released. I'm about 10% through it and I don't think I'm going to finish it. Stephen King is so far left and he likes to throw that out in his stories, but this one is making so I can't get through it. It's a political smash, not a fking novel about fictional characters.

Never been a King fan, Chris.

Do you read David Baldacci?

I was not there but we were managing some paving contracts for Sarasota County. Our man was there. They were paving a road that rambles through a beach front street where Mr. King has his beach house. That were routing traffic around the operation and the street was pretty narrow. Stephen came along and ran into the paver or some other piece of equipment. He charmed his way out of it by playing the celebrity card and inviting them to his house for a drink which was really close by. Apparently a few guys took him up on it.\

I enjoyed some of his earlier books but he is too political for me now.
