Wow, that was an awesome article. You should submit this to the “Atlantic”.
I saw the first Tom Cruise Mission Impossible film when I was in college and I can’t believe they’re still getting cranked out. I was living in Vienna during one of the films (I forget which one). But I remember going out to the Vienna Opera House where the scene was being filmed and seeing Tom Cruise in person. And he was shorter than I thought he would be. He was standing outside the building with stunt harnesses on and it was nighttime and they were readying Austrian patrol cars for an external action sequence of some sort. I ended up going to get coffee in one of the cafes, because things were about a little too noisy. My nerves are easily rattled.
You have an incredible Tom Cruise story. That’s like a little bit of history all to yourself haha
I can hardly believe they’re still making them. What really blew me away is that one of them was broken into two parts. Imagine pitching that idea to a Hollywood exec, five hours and change of film throwing Cruise around on screen.
"After all, the Freedom of Information Act allows agencies to disclose records or exempt them. There is no third option." As of 1986 (post Philippi case), excluding records would be the third.
Fascinating, as always. Who knew I could have so much fun learning a corner of FOIA law??
That's music to my ears. It doesn't all have to be boring haha

Excellent point!
Yeah, it’s a built in work around and that makes the FOIA a damn joke!
