Oh yes, I loved Lone Star. I need to go imdb Chris and see where he hasn't been the bad guy. Except for this one, my brain can't churn any up. He does creepy so well though.
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Chris Rock doesn't have Wash's arms.
I know Allyson will have my back on this point.

Hey, I'm not the only molecular biologist around here! *waves at Sheryl*
Yeah, ya gotta love that episode of Voyager where they had a microscope that zoomed in on someone's DNA sample until they could see the individual atoms. They were differently-coloured balls, just like molecular models. And then one of the atoms had a little bar code on it, which is how they knew the aliens were messing with them.
Eyes rolled out onto the floor.
....Ye gods, that *is* going to be one gorgeous baby. yay Gina and her man!!

Oh, this reminds me of when I recently watched an episode of the animated X-Men and saw a scene in which Beast looks through a light microscope and views a virus.

Love "A Thousand Pieces of Gold"!! A really good movie about the Chinese experience of the gold rush. Rosalind Chao (aka Keiko O'Brien and Soon Li from M*A*S*H) is excellent in it, but I forgot that Chris Cooper was in it, too!
He plays Jake Gyllenhall's dad in "October Sky," so he's definitely the antagonist in that film, but I wouldn't call him the villain, exactly.

He was also the hero in Matewan. I like Cooper a lot, actually.

There is that distinction...
Hm. I'm definitely interested in seeing 1000 pieces of Gold now.
I heard a lecturer at AU talking about the disparity between the percentage of Chinese immigrants during that period of history who were women vs. the same percentage as Irish women immigrants.
Irish = 52 %
Chinese = 2 %
That really struck me. According to the prof, each culture had no use for their women. So one left them behind as unprofitable and the other shipped them off as detritus.
