I think the same advice could be apropos about some films/videos

I was sparked earlier today to consider The Missiles of October and I just finished this captivating two and a half hour docu drama.

I highly recommend you see this again, if you've seen it before and DEFINITELY see it now if you haven't.

What struck me was the comparison between what President Kennedy went through negotiating a serious situation and what our President Trump has, and will continue to go through as we too protect our nation from invasion.

Even Kennedy said, near the end when he and Kruschev were exchanging communiques, that he had to make sure there were "no booby traps" in one of Kruschevs replys !

Grab some popcorn and re-live history ... or forget it.

The Day After, too, though that was quite awhile ago.

Hey, every time I try out something on Netflix it totally sucks and I quit.

Any Freeper out there recommend something on Netflix, something that was great..?

I’m giving the The Missles of October a try, right now.

When my son was flustered as a child I used to tell him to sit down relax and have a cigar. It's a line from Missiles. I don't think he knows that even today 20 years later.

For all those budding and committed socialists out there, I highly recommend Arthur Koestler’s “Darkness at Noon” - the story of a powerful and haunting portrait of a Communist revolutionary (like out present day socialists) caught in the vicious fray of the Moscow show trials of the late 1930s.
‘
Think of this story as the future of a successful socialist revolution in the US and what glorious things befall present day socialists and SJWs ...
