Dear Sir,

I regret to inform you that I barely watched mere seconds of the Disappointing One’s opus, and that too while inadvertently, or out of reflex operation of the remote, when I happened to settle, oh so briefly, upon an infotainment channel like CNN, MSNBC or FOX or the local network affiliates.

Instead watched a documentary about John Muir and the effort to establish the nascent National Park System.

BTW, if are a Comcast subscriber, and have either Encore or MoviePlex, the original 5 hour German TV version of Das Boot is available, albeit dubbed into English, a shame since the movie worked better in German with subtitles.

IMO, one of the best war movies made, and if you are an aficianado, then this epic version may be of interest to you.

Also in rotation is t the European version, lengthier, more detailed and textured, of that other masterpiece, Sergio Leone’s Once Upon a Time in America.

Sincerely,

SG.

P.S. Wonder how one says Lame Duck in Swahili?

.... Lame Duck in Swahili?

Jambo! Pecha bata, Bwana 0bama

Another useful Swahili phrase:
"Dr. I am having chest pains!"

"Dakta matitty inaringa!"
