'Objects In Space'
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.
JS would have had even more of a field day with it, if that's what he actually meant to say.
Cutting himself off didn't keep it from being aired on TDS, though.
I vote that Cheney should be less self-censoring, in the interest of liberals who wish to be amused by his cranky potty-mouth.
Yo -- did I skim past the fact that Britney had her baby?!?!?!?!??! [link]
I second that vote.
From Salon:
Wait, wait we take it all back. We mocked Dick Cheney earlier today for getting snippy about how he had to cut short his vacation to deal with Hurricane Katrina. But it turns out that we were maligning the vice president unfairly. It turns out that he -- or at least his office -- was working all along.
According to a report in the Hattiesburg American, Cheney's office placed calls to the Southern Pines Electric Power Association on Aug. 30 and Aug. 31, insisting that the agency immediately repair two electrical substations that supply power to Atlanta-based Colonial Pipeline Co., a company that pumps gasoline and diesel from the Gulf Coast to the Northeast.
Southern Pines complied with the order from Cheney's office, the paper says -- taking a risk that the repair work would knock out power throughout its system and delaying by at least a day efforts to restore power to two rural hospitals and a number of water systems in Mississippi.
Neither Cheney's office nor Colonial Pipeline would respond to questions from the paper about the vice president's directives.
I vote that Cheney should be less self-censoring, in the interest of liberals who wish to be amused by his cranky potty-mouth.
I really don't think it would change anyone's opinion about him.
Help...
Ben has science homework. One of the questions on the page is:
Find out what happened to the following hurricanes:
Franklin:
Gert:
Dennis:
I'm here [link]
I'm having no luck.
This [link] seems to imply Franklin remained a tropical storm, but other google hits seem to imply otherwise.
I'm frustrated with the teacher's lack of instructions, because she gave the kids no indication of where they are to look for this information, and the question provides no context to help figure out what sort of information she's expecting to see. I can only imagine how the mothers who don't use the internet are feeling right now.
Try this page, Cindy: [link]
Try this link; they're all 2005 storms: [link]
I really don't think it would change anyone's opinion about him.
No, but I would find it funny. Isn't that enough?
Wikipedia also has info on the 2005 hurricane season: here.
