Sure, eliminate scientific glassblowing--it's probably one old guy doin weird shit, and you won't save much cause your chemists will just have to order their weird glass from catalogues and special order now, and it'll be more expensive. I'm just sayin.

Well, the Center for French Studies, which is very different from the Department of French Studies.
Don't scare me like that.

From the files of Great in Theory/Horrific in Practice the House GOP has set up a website for regular Americans to suggest and discuss ideas for congress to take on.
Because random people on the Internet are known for their forward-thinking ideas and intellectual debating. Not that there won't be some good ideas and sincere, intelligent people; they'll just be snowed under by the cranks and crackpots like with every single comment thread everywhere.
It took about three clicks to reach a suggestion to repeal the 19th Amendment with support running at 50% (from a statistically insignificant number of people).

the House GOP has set up a website for regular Americans to suggest and discuss ideas for congress to take on.
Among other things wrong with this is it means the House GOP would be deciding who counts as a "regular American".

Whoa, I Tivoed Synecdoche, New York and Emily Watson's got an unexpected nude scene in it. And she's got an amazing body. Very full and lush and womanly. Not a boob-job/Maxim body but sexy and human.
Oh man, that was a brilliant movie. I'd be curious to hear your take on it, given how polarizing it tends to be. (My BAFTA friends barely made it through the whole screening and declared it to be the worst movie they'd ever seen. I *loved* it.)
Also, one of my neighbors did sound for it. Anytime you can hear the actors talking and don't see a boom in the shot, thank Jeanne!

It appears to be a free-for-all. Which means this site can be throughly abused to pull quotes from "An official GOP website" for pretty much any crackpot idea the Internet can cough up.

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