Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Closer than SF, but I am going to be in SF seeing Charlie and the Chocolate factory.

IMAX? Tell them to wipe off the projector before they start. It was an issue during our viewing with little hairs floating around 80 feet high across Depp's face.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hey, there everyone. Almanzo and I have just found a great apartment in Rushcutters' Bay - it's in our budget, great neighborhood and we can move in next week. If our application goes through. So any real-estatate-ma would be greatly welcomed. Also welcomed would be advice about Australian apartment renting.

I'm renting an Australian apartment right now, AIFG! Anything in particular you want to know?

Madrigal, maybe ask billytea or one of our other aussies, so it's coming from someone closer to local?

Be happy to. What would you like me to cover? Can I send them COMM samples?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yikes!

eta:

One of the F-16 pilots reported he could not see the captain in the cockpit and that the co-pilot appeared to be slumped in his seat, a Greek Defense Ministry official told Reuters.

damn weird

eta²:

Greek television reported that a passenger on plane said in a cellphone text message to his cousin before the crash that the pilots were slumped and that it was freezing in the plane.

“The pilot has turned blue (in the face),” the passenger said in a text message to his cousin, TV reports said.

“Cousin farewell we’re freezing,” it said.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Um, eeek? Wasn't there a golf pro whose private plane developed an oxygen problem and flew halfway across the US before crashing a couple years ago?

move out and draw fire

Paine Stewart's plane?

Yeah, our holiday weekend just got booked up. The consular officers have the worst of it, but the DH has aviation in his portfolio (and just spoke with Tsolakis on Friday).

Those poor people. Gah.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yup, Payne Stewart.
