But think of the lawsuits.

I felt kind of let down by the King's speech. I thought the movie was just getting started at the lead up into the war, and then it ended. I guess I was mostly caught off guard by the abrupt (suddenly happy?) ending.

I just got through half of season 7 of 24. I remember watching season 2 and really getting into it, but all I can think of this season is, "wait that doesn't make any sense". Dubaku has an "insurance policy" for in case he is assassinated which will expose everyone to the Justice Department...

Nordwan (North Face) 8/10 This German film is about the famous failed attempt on the Eiger North Face. It's pretty dramatic. It's a good story, and the mountaineering scenes are pretty well done, but I could have done without the good guys and bad guys or the love story. A lot of the mountain...

Somebody's gotta be the first to go around planting conspiracies on the other planets. Might as well be us.

Wow you must have seen a totally different LOTR. I went back and watched all three movies last year and I almost threw up in my mouth a little bit because of how bad they were. Mostly, I noticed how heavily the movie leaned on it's special effects, and how dated a lot of them were, especially...

Just got back from the store and the checkout girl forgot to take off the security tags of some clothing that was packaged. The tags were put on the clothing, and the clothing was put into boxes. Anyways, it didn't trip the security alarms for whatever reason, so I got home with two merino wool...

Have you actually measured your blood pressure? What is it? As far as I know there is no downside to low blood pressure until it drops low enough that you faint.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - rape/10 Seriously, not a good date movie. Tron 8/10 About half of the movie is just cool expositions of scenery with intense music going on. Also, if you ever find yourself in a computer world and notice that all of your cloths have red lights on them while...

Maybe it would be better if we all just stopped posting. Less chance for hurt feelings and infractions that way.

At grad school you just don't show up.

It sounds like a pretty textbook herniated disc, the most common back injury. If it's been going on for more than a few months there is a good chance that you will have lifelong back problems. If it was a sudden onset thing, then you should take it easy for a while and it might fix itself...

I have a fear of having my throat cut. I don't like to lean my head back in public because I feel like someone might slash it. I think it's from watching Braveheart at a young age.

I've got a lab mutt. I found him at around 8 weeks when him and his litter got ditched by the road in smalltown Mexico. Since then he has repaid my kindness by eating or chewing up 3 sweaters, a pair of jeans, a pair of really expensive gloves, a down jacket, my headlamp, all of my hats, a pair...

I am glad that we can voice our opinions freely here without any concern about being polite or considerate. In that case, you are being an asshat Solaris. That is my opinion, and I voice it freely.

Just got back from a screening. Really makes me want to jump around and punch things. Christian Bale is for sure getting an Oscar nomination. The plot is regular boxing movie. Beat down Boston suburb scrappy fighter with crazy trashy family rises from the ashes to awesomeness. There is a big...

But getting to an Olympic level in almost any sport will gift you with a lifetime of joint and soft tissue injuries.

I got a mass email warning not to visit the Wikileaks site at work. I suppose this is understandable at a federal institution. What is funny is the reason that they gave: a. The site attracts a large volume of traffic. Given the nature of the material, third parties could collect and exploit...

At the boundary we are getting raw materials from the Earth and energy from the sun at bargain basement prices.

Reminds me of Catch 22. Milo Minderbinder could sell at a loss and make a profit because he was buying from himself.
