Buffy ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
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.
Lycoming or Continental?
Either way, air-cooled, flat four -- not much different than what was in the original VW Bug.
Now I'm reminded of Bill Cosby's routine about Fat Albert's car, with the "Cessna airplane engine."
eta: Wikipedia tells me that the 150s have Continentals, it's the 152s that have Lycomings.

Oh, good. 'Cause I had no idea. Now we're learning about fuel. (Carolina Blue ftw!)
Oops. They are 152s so I guess they are Lycomings. I'll have to look those up when I'm home.
OMG, y'all! I just looked at the foot of the futon, and Loki and Devi are curled up next to each other! I don't think Devi knows (she was there first) but it proves my theory that him being such an asshole to her is him wanting to play and being a kitten, not actually trying to piss her off. [link] He slid into touching her just now.
Did he just take a swipe at the SCotUS?
Yep.
Monstrous extinct animals. Some of which I knew about, but that shark and that "centipede" are the stuff of nightmares. No one tell Syfy.
That centipede makes an appearance in the Walking with Dinosaurs prequel, Walking with Monsters. (As does the sea scorpion.)
I am such a fogey. I fail to get Lady GaGa, even ironically. eta: and her interviews make it even worse
She certainly has talent, and I find her songs catchy on first hearing, but for me they have a short shelf-life. I'm also surely not the only one here who hears "I want your loving and I want your revenge, you and me could write a bad romance", and is less concerned about the quality of her romance than the quality of her grammar.
(I also realised the other day, watching the video for "Video Phone" - my favourite part of that song is her singing "Hubba hubba", apropos of nothing - that she bears a striking resemblance to Marilyn Manson.)
Wow.
I think Lady Gaga (especially in the first shot of the Bad Romance Video) looks like young Barbara Streisand.
My understanding is that expulsions have actually risen under DADT though.
I did not know that, but I haven't kept up with the issue.
If it's a less toxic environment that's something. But not enough
Definitely agreed.
I have discovered another disadvantage to bike riding in the Winter that I didn't know about. It snowed today (only an inch) so on my way home from work I rode over some snow, some salty slush and some salty water. The fenders protected me nicely from the mess. But once home, a whole bunch of snow and slush melted off the insides of them, all over the kitchen floor. And there's mud! Dunno where the mud came from.
Anyway, that was my evening's misadventure....
