Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Good luck, msbelle. I hope mac gives in soon.

Kat, I loved Woods' book, too. I tend to devour any modern Bard bio. Greer's book opened my eyes to.a lot of assumptions about the marriage and the life.Anne led back in Stratford. It also makes me think harder about the Lost Years.

Chaucer is great but a bitch to teach.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The physics behind flying sharks who can destroy airplanes

First, we take it for granted that, with the possible exceptions of Chinatown, Top Hat, and the upcoming A-Team movie (see David's preview) Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus is the greatest movie of all time.

...

Third, we need to be scientists about this. Could a shark (a) grow large enough to destroy a plane, and (b) generate enough power to fly in the air and reach that plane? Fortunately, the Interweb has someone who can explain all that for us. The greatest infographic of all time, one that both Edward Tufte and Nancy Duarte would have killed to create, is after the jump. You're welcome.

I really did get a kid as stubborn as me. He is bored now, but not given in. I have logged in to work from home and my boss is not in so no real big.

Okay, so the creator of Wondermark either lurks here, or Scola has a side job we didn't know about: [link]

You need to teach him the phrase "cut off your nose to spite your face", because he is living it right now. Sorry to hear he's being a PitA.

SERIOUSLY! The mouseover text is pretty funny too. I can imagine one of the Buffistas saying that.

That is made of awesome!

Damn it. Should have filed a patent.
