A charming and engaging story of a young boy and his first romantic love. It will resonate with any male that has ever fallen for a girl and met with disappointment. Realistic without being cloying. Well acted and well directed. Definitely worth a watch.

Terrasil Shingles 1.5 Oz. Skincare Ointment
Oct 23, 2022
Pass on Terrasil.
While the description for Terrasil sounds good on paper, this product did not do much for the treatment or relief of shingles. You will get better results with Calahist lotion, or other skin care products containing an analgesic and a drying agent

Air (Un)-Safety
Stich is a sharp, highly qualified author, having been a commercial airline pilot, AND worked for the FAA, among his other qualifications. His well documented book will horrify you with stories of carelessness in the cockpit, radiant disregard for safety, and official malfeasance. He takes a particularly hard look at United Airlines, thus the title of this book.
This is an updated release of the original "Unfriendly Skies" and includes more recent air disasters than the original title. It begins with the horrific Dec. 16, 1960 crash of a United jet and a TWA "Connie" over New York City. One young boy is the only survivor of this mid-air collision, and then only for a day - dying the next day in the hospital from severe burns.
If you are curious about some of the worst air disasters in U.S. history, and the background leading up to and following them, this book will hold your interest. The lengthy chapters on FAA and NTSB alleged malfeasance are more difficult to wade through, but eye opening. Stich's assertions that certain airlines received preferential treatment from the safety regulatory agencies is shocking, but believable.
