	Frank's Reel Movie Reviews - Movie Review - The Day After Tomorrow
		The plot is thin on originality and bloated with overindulgence, but its modern day relevance and Emmerich's visuals are enough to thrill and chill even the hardiest of sci-fi enthusiasts.
		The silliness of the dialogue is always made bearable by the skills of the acting crew who deliver their ridiculously poor lines with tongues firmly implanted in cheeks, knowing they are but paying adoration to the disaster flicks of yesteryear.
		In this day and age it's a pleasant release to be able to watch 9/11-like destruction knowing that upon exiting the Cineplex it will all be over.

		All day long she hoed and weeded and gave a hand at night in the fish house, as did all the island women when a run of fish came.
		Day birds that had wheeled round his height--he knew them all from the great gannet to the flitting checkerback--now settled on rock or wave and their places were taken by carey and nighthawk, island birds of the darkness.
		That day they paid no heed to the screaming gulls that, outraged beyond words, were on their worst behaviour.

		I ripped through this book in two days and was begging for more info afterwards.
		It's a true story of "how men became veterans who had to learn fast at the 'point' or they were gone." Because these horors happened - that alone is reason enough that books like these must be read so that we may be even more thankful for the freedoms we share today.
		It closes with a chapter on ideas for lengthening the growing season, which is of vital concern when you only have 70-80 days of frost-free weather.
