Filmed partly in the High School that I attended. Their training room was my gym room (the door he exits was fake). Our wrestling coach was the advisor and played as the opponent’s coach, years later still receiving royalties for $0.25 and such.

I popped it stovetop style, treated as butter corn, reserved some to sprinkle with cheddar cheese, and an hour later we had the classic 3-style combo.
Highly recommend.

She's broken inside, despite wealth, past haunting her, wants to die, but can't find a way.
He's failing despite it all, losses torturing him, wants to live, but can't find a way.
They find each other, but the end comes for everyone, someday.

I want to be sure folks understand what is happening in tech, but other job sectors in the U.S. economy. Revenue growth is double-digit, over 10% for Amazon last year, but the executives there are still slashing jobs. They fired 14K and will hit 30K. Those folks enter a dead job market due to #AI.
