First instance: 19 minutes in. The crewmembers are using binoculars and telescopes to gawk at the nurses naked in their showers on the island. Then the captain shows up. "Fletcher it!" Second instance: 54 minutes in. The nurses are now on the ship, going up to a rear deck, where the same crew members have the binoculars the were using. "Fletcher it!" (They don't want the nurses to use them and see what they've been up to.) Times on the TCM showing, which might include some intro time that was in front of the movie itself.

This is a long shot but I'll try it. I've been watching reruns of Mr. Roberts for I don't know how long. There's two times in the movie when the crew members, while doing something they'd like to keep private, spit out "Fletcher it!". (I think that's what they're saying. The closed captions don't show it.) I interpret that to mean 'knock it off', or 'look out'. Something to that effect. I've searched on the phrase, but only the usage of the noun 'fletcher' comes up, and usually related to something to do with arrows, which makes no sense in this context. Since the whole movie was on a cargo ship, I though maybe a Navy vet might be familiar with the expression. Anyone have a clue? I've never heard this phrase anywhere else but this movie.

So... "In town it's the law; out here it's zir."

Yeah. That was a big one!

I watched qualifying today after reading your post. There were four other cars that leaned way over towards the center line in that right hand lane besides Force's second run. One of them actually crossed the line, and another also took out a few blocks. So there may indeed be something going on in that lane.

This morning the JCP&L outage map clearly shows the track of the worst winds just south of the 195 corridor. At 9:30 still 14,000 without power. Strong thunderstorms, possible tornadoes blow across NJ (nj1015.com) NWS crews assess storm damage in New Jersey for possible tornadoes (news12.com)

We got next to nothing up in Sussex County. But we were just finishing dinner around 6:30 when my cell phone started beeping. I didn't look at it right away, but after about 10 minutes I took a peek. It was our daughter just north of Philadelphia in the downstairs bathroom with her cat sheltering in place because of a tornado warning. She said the wind sounded like a freight train. (Where have I heard that before!) It was pretty scary, but eventually everything was OK. So after I got her texts I flipped on the Weather Channel, and then News 12 NJ and saw all hell was breaking loose along a line from central Jersey all the way down through Delaware. That's when I posted up this thread. Then I stayed with the guy on News 12 who followed the whole line as it moved across the state. We have a friend in Waretown, and I'll have to call her tomorrow to see how she fared. It looked like Stafford, Barnegat Light, and the north end of LBI were getting rolled over. At the moment it seems we may hear about a couple tornadoes in NJ. But even without them the straight line winds were ripping up some significant stuff.

7:39 Stafford, Lacey, northern half of LBI... 70 MPH winds and three tornado warnings.

At 7:21 the band is all the way from Edison to Atlantic City. The 195 corridor looks like ground zero. 70+ mph winds at least.

Eastern PA and Philly got pounded. Tornadoes down on the ground and it's all moving east. Looks like from Toms River south.

Here's a review of Wick 4, from the Federalist no less. I won't see it until it's on DVD. If this review was about Wick 3 I'd kind of agree. John Wick 4 Is All Artifice And No Art (thefederalist.com)

President Biden walks into a local bank in Wilmington, Delaware to cash a check. He is surrounded by Secret Service agents. As he approaches the cashier he says, "Good morning, Ma'am, could you please cash this check for me?" Cashier: "It would be my pleasure sir. Could you please show me your ID?" Biden: "Truthfully, I did not bring my ID with me as I didn't think there was any need to. I am President Joe Biden, the President of the United States of AMERICA !!!!" Cashier: "Yes sir, I know who you are, but with all the regulations and monitoring of the banks because of impostors, forgers, money laundering, and bad mortgage underwriting not to mention requirements of the Dodd/Frank legislation, etc., I must insist on seeing ID." Biden: “Just ask anyone here at the bank who I am, and they will tell you. Everybody knows who I am." Cashier: "I am sorry Mr. President but these are the bank rules, and I must follow them." Biden: "I am urging you, please, to cash this check. I need to buy a gift for Jill for Valentine’s Day." Cashier: "Look Mr. President, here is an example of what we can do. One day, Tiger Woods came into one of our bank branches without ID. To prove he was Tiger Woods he pulled out his putter and made a beautiful shot across the bank into a coffee cup. With that shot we knew him to be Tiger Woods and cashed his check.” “Another time, Roger Federer came into the same place without ID. He pulled out his tennis racquet and made a fabulous shot whereas the tennis ball landed in a coffee cup. With that shot we cashed his check. So, Mr. President, what can you do to prove that it is you, and only you, as the President of the United States?" Biden stands there thinking, and thinking, and finally says, "Honestly, I regret my mind is a total blank... there is nothing that comes to my mind. I can't think of a single thing. I have absolutely no idea what to do and I don’t have a clue.” Cashier: "Will that be large or small bills, Mr. President?

That has happened to me several times in the (now distant) past. But vastly improved when the P2P applications went online. And through the NJSP Augusta barracks in the last two years the turn around time has been less than three weeks.

It depends on the police department processing your application. There is no statewide statistic.
