Maybe your testosterone level went up from winning the duel with Gladwell and now you are more in tune with Hunter. That happens you know!

I liked the movie quite a bit and It was contained a good take on the Skull and Bones.

I liked the line with the mafia Guy saying, "We have our families and the Church, Blacks, Jews , Irish have this and that etc. etc. What do you guys have?"

Wison came back: "We have the United States of America. The rest of you are just visiting."

I think that really captures the mindset.

That's a great line. Considering that the last Presidential election was between 2 Skull and Bones men just two years apart at Yale, maybe it's still true.

I'm looking forward to seeing it.

It seemed like a realistic take on Skull and bones. People seem to either scoff and take it too lightly, or else think they are all powerful.

But basically its a finishing school for for the most elite of the Eastern Seaboard establishment WASPs. Its a little more diverse now, I understand.

Its a similar dynamic to the mafia but a magnitude more sophisticated and restrained.

Its a weird thing though how boring
yet powerful they are.

I try to read the weekly standard and Foreign affairs and its hard. That is dry stuff, but there are a lot of powerful people behind those publications.

The movie is not really boring, its I would say a bit more cerebral than the average espionage flick.
