...just the chorus ("Oh, you can't scare me, I'm sticking to the union, / I'm sticking to the union 'til the day I die") but every verse. Roger had picked it off a Pete Seeger record he heard when he was younger and repeated it decades later, word-perfect...

Israel can punish Hamas by simply choking off supplies going into Gaza, and officials say they have every intention of using this weapon.

First law of movie economics: an action epic costs buckets to make; a comedy, peanuts...
...pronounced "gooey"--a step further and makes it a tactile user interface. You're viewing a little world where data are objects, and instead of just pressing your nose up against the glass, you can reach in and pinch and touch those bits and bytes with your hands. The word is made flesh. Any realer and it would be Tron...
