'Underneath'
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.
You know, there's really nothing like listening to a group of white male law firm partners talking about their banking practices as you're waiting for your TJs cheap lunch in a box to come out of the microwave.
At least not until they move onto real estate.
For shrift: Mary Jo Fernandez is now talking about Big Boy Tennis.
Debate... still... going... But my BP is fine, and the OP hasn't asked me to desist (I think I'll send her a PM, just in case), so I'm not backing down.
Perkins, that sounds like the *most* fun.
Really?
Ha! (in re: MJF)
Have they rerun the finale yet? Maybe I can watch the last 15 minutes or so.
Should be next week. It's pretty good. The last 15 minutes should be sufficient.

Equality at last! I must go look!
Ha! (in re: MJF)
It's not a special feature like the "Big Babe Tennis" was. But she's talking about the Nadal semifinal. She also referred to it as a "red meat" match.

Beware of Velociraptor Attacks from Above
If you still have nightmares about the fleet-footed Velociraptors from Jurassic Park, here is yet another reason to fear them. Paleontologists now believe that the predatory dinosaurs climbed trees, where they would wait to pounce on their prey.
Phil Manning of the University of Manchester has been examining the biomechanics of raptors, with an especial focus on the dinosaurs' claws, which Manning previously found were sharp enough to puncture skin, but probably could not tear it open. Manning now believes that the claws were better suited to climbing trees than ripping open prey, with the Velociraptor waiting for prey to appear below them and then leaping down, hooking its claws into a hapless animal and delivering a killing blow with its powerful teeth.
Really the only ones that need to be afraid of Velociraptors in Trees are those what believe in Intelligent Design.
Just when I thought Velociraptors couldn't get any cooler. Where is the government spending for reconstructing this species from DNA?
