In other news, Vanity Fair scored the most subscriptions in a single day ever after despot-elect Donald Trump attacked them on Twitter over a critical review of Trump Grill.
A note for all the editors out there: attack Trump or his properties and he'll reward you with free publicity. His narcissism demands it. This may actually be how we defeat Trumpism.
Meanwhile, former governor and possible secretary of energy Rick Perry apparently received very poor grades in chemistry and physics in college. Perry also received a D in "Meats" class. Insert your own lewd jokes here.
Finally, here's my brief, spoiler-free review of Rogue One.
Unlike most movies, I believe it would have benefited from being a little longer to allow for more time with each main character. The opening act of the movie proceeds a little too quickly to establish a strong emotional connection to some of the new characters.
With that said, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I didn't have a problem with a certain digitally-recreated character or the presence of other familiar characters. Vader's final scene was awesome. The whole film was beautifully shot and the final 45 minutes of the movie are spectacular. What wasn't spectacular was the 5 degree weather last night. No amount of beer can make you immune to that.
This has been my antidote today.
