Train Wreck of the Century. Tim drops by this week to give us his thoughts on Train to the End of the World, and.... man, he really hated it. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, seeing as we didn't even last through the whole thing when we MSTed it. And that's this week good and wrecked. At least we can look forward to next Monday, right? That was the direction we wanted to look, right? I'm sure, so see you all then. -Stig Høgset.
