Okay, so hear me out. The young man in "Piano Man" (Billy Joel) eventually grows up to be the "Rocket Man" (Elton John), and reflects on his missed opportunities as a father in "Cats in the Cradle" (Harry Chapin). His son eventually grows up to be the father in "Father and Son" (Cat Stevens).

This was fun to see. I was surprised by how many guests stayed through the hour long power outage but even more surprised to see how many people drove over *during* the outage because they wanted to hang out and play in the dark.

I enjoyed Captain America: Brave New World, but my suspension of disbelief was hindered by some completely unrealistic scenes.
I can accept surfing on missiles, and the altered physics of how a shield bounces, but having politicians accept responsibility for their actions is a bridge too far.
