Somebody check - is Jessica walking in circles?
Wouldn't hopping be more wallaby-like.
Gud, did you like the first Transformers?
I didn't see the first one. That probably didn't help.
I'm just happy that this is a story so good, it got linked to three times and sparked a tagline.
I'm not sure if the second one is REALLY as bad as people say it is, for my tastes.
I don't know dude, it's pretty bad. Once they actually get to the action and stop trying for humor or character development it gets does get better.
I didn't really watch the first one for character development.

Yeah, I've seen four or five different articles and blog posts about it since yesterday....

It's not that I wanted it, it's that they tried to give it to me and failed. I really think they could have cut nearly half the movie and improve it quite a bit.
On Rhode Island -- I'm pretty sure that the "Rhode Island" part is actually just a tiny island off the coast, which has a different name now, and "Providence Plantations" is what used to refer to the mainland part.
Huh. An uneasy truce between Human and Dolphin has collapsed....
Dolphins Under Siege By Angry Anglers
PANAMA CITY, Fla. — Miles offshore, a fight is raging between angry anglers armed with guns and bombs and bottlenose dolphins, the marine mammals popularized in movies and TV shows like "Flipper."
Boat captains say dolphins, known for their toothy grins and playfulness, are growing increasingly aggressive in their quest for food, with some taking fish right off the hook _ something that rarely happened just a few years ago.
In response, fishermen are pulling out everything from pipe bombs to .357-caliber Magnum pistols to fend them off _ and breaking a federal law against harming the sea mammals.
The head of a national fishing organization, Bob Zales II, said the problem of bottlenose dolphins stealing fish has gotten "tremendously worse" in the last year. So have stories of retaliation by angry boat captains and ordinary anglers, who are paying hundreds of dollars for even short fishing trips because of high fuel prices.
"You have people who are getting so frustrated they're shooting at them," said Zales, of Panama City, who has fished for more than four decades and is president of the National Association of Charter Boat Operators.
The captain of a Florida-based fishing boat is serving two years in prison after pleading guilty earlier this year to making pipe bombs and tossing them at dolphins, which are protected by federal law.
Two other captains have pleaded guilty to shooting at the animals in the Gulf of Mexico, home to tens of thousands of dolphins, in the last three years. And four dead dolphins washed ashore with bullet wounds near San Diego, Calif., in 2007. Authorities offered a reward in the shootings, but no one was charged.
