DAILY CALL SHEET: APRIL 19, 2024


Sasquatch Sunset (2024) In which we join a small family of Bigfoot as they traverse the shrinking wilderness looking for more of their kind. Along the way, we see them grunt, forage, grunt, sleep, grunt, mate, and exercise every possible excretory function you can imagine (and one or two you probably can't), while grunting. Gross, ridiculous, and oddly poignant by the end. Honestly, I'm not sure whether to give this a low or high rating, but I'm going high since it makes me happy that oddball movies like this can still get made.

TIL: A pastoral statement from the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops noted that by preserving natural environments, by protecting endangered species, by laboring to make human environments compatible with local ecology, by employing appropriate technology, and by carefully evaluating technological innovations as we adopt them, we exhibit respect for creation and reverence for the Creator.

I HAVE SOME NOTES: Continuing to keep my notepad nearby as I bumble my way through  daily Scripture readings.

A surprising number of polearms and martial arts weapons are actually repurposed agricultural tools -- tonfa (millstone handle), nunchucks (rice flail), kama (sickle), sai (rice pitchfork), guisarme (pruning hook), military fork, glaive (kitchen knife on a stick), voulge (meat cleaver on a stick), and war scythe (what it says it is).
