The National Museum of African American History and Culture will not feature anything significant on MLK.

Why?

Because his kids/estate want exorbitant amounts of money for any of MLK's belongings to be displayed.

So.... in addition to the jobs that I've applied for near Roswell and [redacted due to NDA], I'm also looking to apply for work in Colorado and New Hampshire....

I have no idea what winter is like in CO or NH....thi will be ...Fun? if I get either of those two I suppose.

Never lived in either of those places, but I do have friends in Colorado... let's just say I hope you like skiing...

If the weather in New Hampshire is anything like that of Vermont (which I imagine it is) then based on accounts from my friends who live there, be prepared for plenty of snow. Based on actually having visited Vermont in the autumn, be prepared for gorgeous leaf displays. :))

I have never posted in this thread before! I don't know how that's even possible! : O

If all the snow in the world is piled on top of Mélu's house, I gladly volunteer both to visit and to play in the snow with her.

Ghost in the Shell (2017) finally has teasers out. I must say, they look better than I expected them to.

I think I will continue to consider that it's an anime and not something else ::) (Well, it's a manga too, but not a movie for me.)

I'll probably be doing the same. Adaptations rarely turn out well enough to make me interested....

See, I don't understand that.  It's a horribly inefficient way to do it.

Explosives are MUCH better.
