I miss the popup menu of recent pages in this tab, that was beside the back/forward buttons in Firefox 3.

I watched 27 minutes of The Plainsman (1936) and found it unpromising. Then I looked up Cecil DeMille and was a little surprised that I had never seen any of his work, other than his cameo in Sunset Blvd.
The Big Clock (1948) starts slow but pays off quite well.

I have a recurring daydream that a cop asks permission to search my car and I say: “Fine, if I get to search yours.”
Or: “Okay, provided that you do so in the nude. Nothing to hide, right?”
Or: “If you’ll sign this contract accepting personal liability for any damage to my property, and agreeing to pay me $120/hour for my inconvenience. Oh, and I’ll just check your pockets for contraband first.”
Gotta wonder what would happen.
