Let’s begin with a rather bold statement, but one that I am convinced is wholly accurate and which I am prepared to defend to the bloody death: Vern’s Seagalogy is the definitive statement of film writing by a member of my generation. Laugh if you want, but it’s true. You can even quote me. Go ahead. I dare you. For the fact remains that there has never been a film writer whose voice so distinctly and accurately represents the bipolar blend of sarcasm and sincerity that defines the late 20tFuture War Question 1

The Arizona Republic reports that state lawmakers, including House Speaker Jim Weiers and Rep.

I flew over Iowa last week and observed many of the flooded areas from about 30,000 feet. Whole roads disappeared under what appeared to be several miles of water before the roads reappeared.
