I am so brokenhearted that Lionel can't read. Autistic? Dyslexic.

I think Mr. Mechano is going to be in my dreams nightmares tonight.
VERY frightening but very cool. I thought he was a robot at first.

Train shot of fully integrated troops riding together already had me welling up.
Throwing a hymn in taking me down. More stunning camera shots.

I love the end of True Grit with Iris Dement singing, "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms."
Perfect hymn for soldiers.

Mickey Rooney lived to the age of 93. It's the only way he'd have time to fit his eight wives in.
