I know the importance of what the United States did for the world, the blunders it had, the errors it continues to make, and ultimately the level of corruption that took place under the guise of "National Security." I say all that knowing that I am still proud to have served my country Post-9/11
Books
This was a crazy book full of wild stories from sacrificing a goat, to selling drugs, and becoming friends with the most unlikely people. Scott Payne is pretty good writer and I have no issue with his story telling. Just want more information about certain things
Drama
I think one of the best parts of this movie for me is one of the ending scenes where there is a conversation with a couple of the characters. They are talking about how this even happened and the conversation presents the idea that they are all in part responsible.

The pacing is my biggest issues. High highs and super low lows. It is just really hard shifts that take you away from what is going on. I understand what they were trying to do with showing how the lives of these people are, but the transitions feel choppy and hard.

This is a great story. Not for the actions of those involved, but for one simple line: "You are never out of the fight!" That is the prevailing lesson and process in this movie. Press on. It is honestly a good life lesson to hold on to.

The premise of this story is cool. I mean the evolution of a sport is one of the best part of sports. Think old school basketball when it had Pistol Pete and no dunking. It was boring, and it is boring again. I am not a big sports fan, but I do know that the dunk contest have been weak

Real quick, ESP is Extra Sensory Perception which I feel is more of an overall term. There are also other techniques, that is what I am going to call it, called remote viewing, map dousing, and another one that I can't remember. Remote viewing is the idea of going to a remote location

This was one of the first DVDs that we owned in my family and I remember saying that only DVDs I was going to own was this and U-571. Granted, Blu-ray and streaming came, but I still do keep a copy of this.

There are some really cool ideas they had and the amount success they had throughout the book is impressive. I mean, it was one of the people in the books above that compromised some of the programs.

Andy Samberg from Brooklyn Nine-Nine playing a serious role and killing it. He is my favorite part of this movie. Kate Winslet does a great job, without a doubt. However, Andy playing something so far from what he is known for and doing it without any issues is a testament to his skills.
Books
The short of this is that this book isn't for everyone. Much like his comedy, these stories can be crass and graphic, but if you keep yourself open-minded, and you don't mind a more language than Captain America has ever heard, then you can find some hysterical stories.

Speaking that this is based on a true story, the story is good and inspiring. It is really impressive what she was able to do so shortly after the attack. I hope she is still able to help others who have lost limbs to push forward into "normal."
