For those that don't have cracking/popping joints. There's no pain before, during, or after cracking/popping.There's like a tension or restricted type of feeling similar to how it feels when you reach the end of any range of movement except you can tell the tension isn't because the tendons/muscles are at their limit. If you push against that resistance enough then there's a pop/crack and then the joint doesn't experience the same tension/restriction any longer and moves more freely and so there's somewhat a feeling of tension relief. My personal favourite is in the morning when I can interlock my fingers with palms out and then bend them all back to a symphony of pops. It feels great afterwards like taking gloves off after an extended time. It's like freeing your joints up to move as much as they possibly can.

@ 10:03 it depends on what kind of train you're riding on. If it's only doing shorter trips they probably don't have one. I went east coast to west coast and then back on trains and they had a "Beverage/Snack" cart during the longer legs of the trip which I'm willing to bet is what they called a bar cart back in '87 (I did my train journeys a couple of years ago). The shorter trip trains probably get better diesel mileage without the snack car too (and they save money on paying staff to run it)

This movie is hilarious, heart warming and wholesome. Glad you enjoyed it. There are very few Thanksgiving movies out there but this one is absolutely perfect. As far as Dell's trunk is concerned, it really didn't matter what was in it. The trunk was his home. You don't see too many people traveling the country with a large foot locker or trunk in tow. As you can imagine, he probably had very few things in it. Mostly clothes and his shower curtain rings. Another great John Candy movie is Uncle Buck. Not sure if you've reacted to that one yet but it's every bit as good as this one.

In 87 He's willing to pay $75 just so the guy would give him the taxi cab That is equivalent to approx $196.75 in 2022 and that's before he even pays for the ride. The $700 stolen from his wallet is equivalent to approx $1,836.34 today

A bit of trivia, when John Candy got the bus passengers to sing the theme to 'The Flintstones' it's because it was John Candy's favourite cartoon series, he was even considered for the role of Fred Flintstone in the live-action remake, the role went to John Goodman in the end.

Blues Brothers stripes Brewster's millions home alone uncle buck Splash, and on and on. Mostly he had small parts but watch any movie he starred or costarred in. Next should be uncle buck, then stripes. Pro tips...steve martins partner in this is ferris buellers dad! Kevin bacon was in another movie based on this character, He said Dhe said! The plane announcer guy is ferris buellers teacher! The car rental lady is ferris buellers principals assistant! She was a personal friend of Hughes and suggested a clerk do a phone call scene in front of steve. So Hughes gave her the part and it was comoletely unscripted...she addlibbed the whole thing! The cartoon family guy, does the greatest parody of their motel room arguement scene! The song in the car is by ray Charles, the song he or the kid is jamming to in uncle buck, is also ray Charles!

(And pizza delivery boys of the time only carried a few dollars worth to make change.) So he got a tiny tip and came back to rob them.
