[FRIAM] Breakfast in Santa Fe

[cody dooderson]

Driving 200 km/h sounds really scary to me. I did ride in a train
in Germany once that probably went about that speed, but I couldn't see out
of the window.
About the movie set shooting. The sheriff said, at a press conference, that
it was an actual lead bullet. So I was wrong, and Nick Thompson was right
that someone on the movie set is effin nuts.
