Not the purge
This film is trying to spoof the purge movies it's not funny in the slightest. Okay the Mike Tyson cameo was funny the rest not so. I think I will stick to the original purge

"Mike is a friend, and he's been through some rough shit recently. It was great to hear all that come out in the best possible way on this album, with a real return to form in his songwriting."

Science - Faith - Life - Ask Science Mike!
Love this podcast. Mike McHargue takes any topic from science to faith to basic living anf breaks it down in a completely different way. Through a filter of logic, science and faith he turns faith based topics on their heads and digs into into the problems of traditional faith and organized religion.

Get ready to hear someone tell it like it is.

The Precipice (Mike Bowditch, #6)

***NOTE: I won my copy in a Goodreads First to Read Giveaway***

Mike Bowditch is a Maine game warden along the Appalachian Trail. When two young female hikers go missing, Mike and his girlfriend, wildlife biologist Stacey Stevens, join in the search. Once the bodies are found with teeth marks on the bones, the locals fear they may have been killed by coyotes. Stacey is sure that they weren't, and both she and Mike continue investigating, determined to find the truth of what happened to the two young women.

This was a well-written thriller, with believable characters and an interesting locale. The narrator did a nice job keeping his Maine accent where needed, without being over the top or distracting.

I didn't realize when I first started listening that this was book #6, but it was easy enough to figure out from the frequent references to Mike's past that it wasn't the beginning of a series. The book worked fine as a standalone novel, but I think I would have liked it even more had I read some of the earlier novels first. I will probably read more in this series, but I will start back at the beginning so I can watch Mike grow up into the man he is in this novel.

Mike and V are like fire and gasoline. When they touch they consume and if you’re unfortunate to be close enough you’ll be turned to ash by the heat.

This book was one hell of a roller coaster and I still after finishing it can’t decide on who is the narcissist and who is the sociopath. One minute it’s Mike. The next it’s V. You sympathize with each while the other disgusts you.

I started this mid afternoon and didn’t put it down until the wee hours of the next morning. Read it. I dare you. You’ll crave each turn of the page. ?

"Well, England is to my taste a great, great film country. I don’t think any filmmakers have been greater than Hitchcock, fabulously represented in the Criterion Collection by The Lady Vanishes and a great box set, Wrong Men & Notorious Women; Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, represented by many films, including The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp (one of their very best, also made during World War II); and of course Mike Leigh. Topsy-Turvy is so fascinating, because Mike Leigh celebrates precisely the approach to acting that he has driven his own actors farther and farther away from in his own films."
