...Please don't judge Judy. The whole Witwicky family speaks at warp speed, so it is a challenge to make out all that they say (LaBeouf in particular is like John Cusack on amphetamines), but Judy and her husband Ron (Kevin Dunn) are the movie's main sources of comic relief. Or maybe my affection for them had deeper psychological roots. Maybe I saw them as my allies. The movie is like the play date from hell, the kind where a crew of children reduce your home to rubble and conduct endless bouts of loud war on the living-room...

...many opponents see it as financial quicksand, certain the Orlando-Tampa high-speed line will end up costing much more than $2.5 billion.

...blocked on the day of the election, and as the week went on, the entire mobile network was cut off from about late afternoon until midnight, the time when most demonstrations were being staged, making information-gathering from would-be participants impossible. Later, Internet connections were reduced to snail speed, and satellite television was almost entirely jammed. It was becoming impossible to report on events. The only "news" left unblocked was that propagated by state television. (See pictures of the turbulent aftermath of Iran's presidential election...
