| 33217 | Tommy Allsup, Guitarist Who Avoided 'Day the Music Died' Crash, Dead at 85 | <blockquote rel="DirtyD79"><b>DirtyD79 wrote :</b><br><i> I remember Waylon Jennings was supposed to be on that plane too but he ended up giving up his seat voluntarily to the Big Bopper who was coming down with the flu. Waylon would feel guilty about it for decades because after the coin flip he jokingly told Buddy Holly "Well, I hope your plane crashes" after Buddy jokingly told him "I hope your bus freezes up" The guilt from the plane crash caused him to develop a substance abuse problem. </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote><br><div>I've heard that, too. I really can't imagine how it would have felt to be so close to getting on that plane only to have someone else end up in your place.</div> | Superman | Jan 20, 2017 |  |

| 33215 | Star Wars: Rogue One | Finally saw Rogue One today. I thought it was decent, not as great though as everyone made it out to be though. The action was pretty cool, the final battle was epic and the ending was nicely done. Also like NLogan and Vaporman said: the story behind the Death Star's flaw is actually pretty cool and adds to the overall story.<div><br></div><div> The characters seemed kind of flat to me though, even coming off as cheesy in their performances and the way they were written. <span style="font-size: 10pt;">But I thought the overall movie was much better then The Force Awakens, so maybe this is a sign that the franchise is heading in the right direction.</span></div> | Rick Ace Rhodes | Jan 20, 2017 | |
| 33214 | Inauguration Day | I saw some of the inauguration before I went to the movies in the afternoon. I kind of glad we dodged a bullet by avoiding Clinton, but Trump really does seem like a troll to me.<div><br></div><div>But hey, maybe he'll shake things up a little bit.</div> | Rick Ace Rhodes | Jan 20, 2017 | |
| 33213 | The Café | They're saying it's going to rain in my town all weekend. I hope we don't get another tornado. There's still people without water, gas, and electricity. | Mr Magic | Jan 20, 2017 | |

| 33209 | Inauguration Day | I'm no fan of his, but I'm playing the wait and see game. My ex was crying her eyes out when he won and probably is today. I don't agree with a lot of his plans, but some of what he says is true. | ThatDudeintheHoodie | Jan 20, 2017 | |
| 33208 | Virtual Console Thursdays | Week of January 19, 2017:<br><br><b>Wii U Virtual Console:<br><br></b>Star Fox 64 (N64)<br>$9.99<br><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/63/StarFox64_N64_Game_Box.jpg" width="452" height="300"><br><br>Yet, another N64 game that made it's late Wii U Virtual Console entry after being released in Japan and Europe last year. One thing I will say about it though is that it's a better game to own than Star Fox Zero. A game that ended up being a disappointment due to it being mostly a remake of Star Fox 64 with motion control. It's also sad that Platinum Games wasn't able to unleash their full creativity when developing the game. It's really sad. Also, I may get flack for saying this, but I feel that Shigeru Miyamoto needs to step down when developing games for Nintendo. Or at the very least, get less creative control. He seems to be mostly focused on adding gimmicks to his games now than he is on making it really good. Star Fox Zero and Paper Mario are good examples of that.<br><br>But I think in general, it might be best to hold off on any Virtual Console releases that comes out at this point. Mainly because the Nintendo Switch is coming out. We have yet to see what they offer in their Virtual Console. They could allow gamers to upgrade their Wii U and 3DS Virtual Console games to the Switch with little to no cost. But you never know what they'll do. For now, I'm going to wait and see what Nintendo does for the Switch Virtual Console before I commit to buying any more games from the Wii U and 3DS eShop.<br> | blueluigi | Jan 20, 2017 | |
