'Shells'
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.
*I* just found out that one of my cousins thought I was fat when she saw me a few months ago.
This is royally weird.
I mean, not that I think I am, but that I could be perceived as such. Still, I'm one or two dress sizes than the heaviest she's ever seen me (which really isn't that heavy). So there's a definite delta.
FUCK. Still not sleeping. I suck.
This sounds like a good thing. New Method for Inspecting Aging Aircraft
Using a vibration-based technique named the “Boundary Effect Evaluation Method (BEEM)” and a scanning laser vibrometer, P. Frank Pai, professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, can detect tiny cracks within various materials - including aluminum alloy and composite laminates. These are the two primary materials used to build airplanes. Pai says the inspection can be done with the aircraft fully intact and for less money than the traditional method.
Fuck the vacuuming.Screw the goats, I want to worship you for this alone.

APRIL 27--Two weeks after exonerating a trio of men charged in the Duke lacrosse case, North Carolina prosecutors today released a report detailing numerous "self contradictions" on the accuser's part as well as other investigative deficiencies in the case that led them to drop all criminal charges. The "Summary of Conclusions" report, a copy of which you'll find below, was released this morning by North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper, who took control of the Duke case from Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong, whose handling of the matter has resulted in the filing of disciplinary charges against him. One portion of Cooper's report addresses "credibility issues" on the part of adult dancer Crystal Mangum, who leveled rape charges against the three Duke students. In another section of the document, Cooper describes recent interviews with an erratic Mangum during which she made several new claims that were contradicted by "photographic, documentary, and testimonial evidence."

Oh, this is so random, and I don't even know what made me randomly think of it today, but I went to high school with someone actually named Jessica Moon, and isn't that funny wrt Jessica/PMoon?
I thought so!
Snopes says the story about Japanese buying sheep thinking they were poodles... is false.

Hee!
My brother is such a shit. He sold his son a special penny (I don't get it) for $23. That was the son's estimated price. I hope J makes it up,l but knowing his mercernary teaching ways... Still, it makes me laugh. $23 has little meaning to my nephew right now. He can still buy his power rangers.
Um, CNN is reporting that the state dept official who just resigned over the whole "DC Madam" thing claims to have used the escort service to get "messages". Not quite, folks. Try a vowel change in there to get a better picture of the story.
