That’s not entirely true. Texas seems to have a problem with people leaving for various services and it’s a federal crime to transport certain flora between states, even if it is fine in both states.
Write an“installed on” date on them so that you remember be to change them in 10 years.
The AMC theater experience in my area is so poor that I strictly avoid it. Between no assigned seats, the old style fold down seats, sticking to floor as you walk, other patrons talking/being on their phone/using their phone flashlight during the movie, and the 30 minutes of pre-show ads, it just doesn’t make sense to spend money on it.
If I do want to see a movie in theaters, I drive to the non-AMC theater that is 45 minutes away since it is just a much better experience and higher quality at a lower price.

If it’s a “magic remover” that would be a very powerful item. Boss has a magic sword? Touch it and now it’s not!
Additionally, assuming the ring anti-magic field extends in all directions, the first shot would blow the end of the rifle off with the ring flying somewhere.
Also, do magic items retain their magical properties after leaving the feild? If so, it’s still a pea shooter.
Indy 5 felt like an Indy film, which was really nice. My only 2 notes for them to work on would be 1) more practical effects, avoid CGI except for the “supernatural” scene and 2) I appreciate they used the practical effects of speeding up playback for the tuk tuk chase, but it felt too sped up, almost campy.
Overall though, after seeing 4 in a midnight showing and it being the movie that caused me to never go to another midnight showing, 5 was excellent!

Children are told that they MUST go to college to get a stable and high paying job. This is so prevalent that college degrees are just seen as “the next step after high school” and nobody questions it. These colleges have figured out they can charge almost anything because they are seen as the gate keepers to high paying and stable jobs. So banking on future earnings, bearly emancipated teenagers, with the absolute minimum of a financial education, make life decisions that will put them in debt for the next 20-30 years.
The problem with the whole system is there doesn’t appear to be enough high paying and stable jobs.
As far as going to a cheaper college, I think you identified the issue in your very own comment. Schools have different prestige levels. Yale, for example, is a high prestige school and not only are you paying for an education, you are also paying to connect to rich people. These connections can be worth a lot of money if they are used correctly. So going to a cheaper college also means less valuable connections.
