Oh my. That is just too awesome.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Anyone know enough about the stock market (especially put options) to be able to tell if this is true? [link]
It's very conspiracy theory-ish, but the central assertion should (I think) be easy to prove true or false.
eta: OK, it sounds like the story was exaggerated. I think I just spent too much time in wacko-conspiracy land....

I have been invited to go see Manos: Rock Opera of Fate!
I don't think I want to spend $15 on a ticket until someone confirms that the rock opera will include singing the praises of pants.
I think you HAVE to see this. If only to let us know if they somehow utilize the haunting Torgo theme.

Not to mention CDs for Evil Dead: The Musical and Boomstick!: The Musical. Awsome indeed.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Tommy, I don't think we're all going to die in a month and only that particular publication knows about it. It's bullshit. Note also here: [link]

Yeah, I accidentally strayed into a conspiracy website of the type where no one bothers to check if things are true....

Male-Female Crabs Split their Difference
David Johnson and Robert Watson thought they had seen all there was to see in the Chesapeake Bay in almost three decades until they pulled out a crab from the way that had a male left half and a female right half. Now, that crab, acquired by Romuald Lipcius of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science at the College of William & Mary, has moved sideways into the world of natural metabolites where its gynandromorphic peculiarities have helped scientists, for the first time, discover that some molecules can be made only by one sex and not the other.
"Gynandromorphic Peculiarities" would be a good band name.

I guess it rhymes better than "What are you, a dumbass?"
