I, personally wouldn't waste any time going after John Carpenter. I'd go after Shepard Fairey....as far as royalties go. Not sure how well that would stand in court, but that's where the money from that film went.

Odd side story. I have wall art in my kitchen, over my pantry, that is a simple matte white sign, with black all caps lettering that reads "CONSUME." I'm a bit of a John Carpenter fan. I love cheesy movies.

A good read if you're into that kind of stuff. It was recently revived with the simulation theory stuff.

Not that I have a cognitive basis for comparison in my statement, but this simulation sucks ass.

If I paid for this, I'm going to be pissed when I wake up.

No because I don't do FB
But I get your point, and yes probably.

I finally took delivery of the item that led to me registering on Bimmerpost to begin with, so I have more things to do now, lol.

Yep, you could be right. Somehow I'm able to do math equations in my head which was unfathomable before the shot. Interesting.

When you lose something so you buy another one to replace it... The original one instantly appears when you no longer need it.
