OK, I'm falling asleep in my chair. I'm not going to finish what I need tonight. Sigh.
You guys could write me a note, right? With those special internet jokes so that it'll be perfectly clear to anybody who reads it?
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.

Ray comparing something to the "Tunguska blast" at one point.
"You have been a participant in the biggest cross dimensional cross-rip since the Tunguska blast of 1909."

I can't believe I am currently too poor for a latte until Friday. I think I may die. DIE OF NOT HAVING A LATTE.
This was the week holiday purchases all caught up with me, and I opted to pay everything all at once thinking, "I'll just have to buckle down for a week and live without spending money. It's only a week."
This week's Allyson thinks last week's Allyson is such an incredible asshole.
Yay Ghostbusters x-posty!
"Ray, when someone asks you if you're a *God*, you say 'YES'!"
Allyson, I have been there and it sucks. I'd totally buy you a latte if I were there.
I think I first heard about Tunguska when I read The People's Almanac back in the late '70s. Or maybe another book that listed a lot of funky anecdotal paranormal-type stories (not Charles Fort, though--I read him about the same time and didn't like it for some reason).
I remember reading Chariots of the Gods about the same time, but that book annoys the hell out of me now. Denying the inventiveness of pre-modern people in favor of believing in extraterrestrial aliens? Feh.
One or two people claimed there was radiation, but no one else could confirm it.
Well, if an alien spacecraft crashed or exploded, could it look like Tunguska?
If a spaceship exploded in midair because of, for example, a breach in the warp core, it could possibly create the same effect, but no one's found unusual metals or dilithium crystals at the site. You'd think that you'd find some residue.
Denying the inventiveness of pre-modern people in favor of believing in extraterrestrial aliens? Feh.
How else do you explain the existence of primitive, stylized stone carvings that look vaguely (if you use your immagination) sorta' like some guy in a weird space suit-like helmet thingie?
I fucking HATE the holiday hangover week. We're having one.
The only cure for it is the tax refund check. But that requires doing our taxes. Sometimes the cure really is worse than the disease.
Denying the inventiveness of pre-modern people in favor of believing in extraterrestrial aliens? Feh.
Occam's Razor was the aliens' gift to humanity.
