Buffy ,'Empty Places'
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.
that scar is the coolest. poor thing tho. I bet it was no fun getting that scar.
I'm back at the homestead and we have power now. My TiVo was not fried (nor were the other electronics). I was kind of hoping the TV would bite it because it is on a slow descent to bzzting out.
Good news/bad news, le nubian?
So this guy was struck by lightning. It left a weird pattern on his skin. It's actually kind of pretty:
Yeah, that's gorgeous.
Someone remind me doggie reward/punishment memories aren't that long and he's not going to associate being kenneled with being scolded.
Dogs have strange little brains. He may associate being kenneled with corn muffins.
We have tornadoes, earthquakes, flash floods, and the occasional brushfire here.
You're on the New Madrid fault. I vote tornado.
Yay, power!
So...

5 minute video with a politician and his 5 year old son. Around 1:45, the politician starts mouthing the words in unison with his son. He does it a couple more time in the interview.
It is creepy as fuck.
Limbaugh's apologized.
Cause you know, he was just trying to be funny! It is SO HILARIOUS when you call someone a slut.
Duststorms?
Not here. Once again: suck it, Sydney!
Actually, Sydney isn't particularly prone to them either. there was the one you linked to a little while back, that was unusual enough to get its own Wikipedia article. I don't recall another one that bad, and according to the Bureau of Meteorology, that was the worst one in 70 years.
So that whole "most venomous animals in the world" thing doesn't apply?
Oh, we have them, but they're not so common in Melbourne compared to, say, Queensland. Outside of zoos, I've seen a grand total of one genuinely dangerous animal within Melbourne my whole time living here, namely a redback in our en suite. (I have encountered a tiger snake when bushwalking near Melbourne, and they're more common near the Yarra River.)
In any given year, on average, between one and two people die of snakebite in the whole of Australia, about the same rate as in the US. About 40% of that happens in Qld, and nearly 90% in rural areas. We haven't had a spider bite death in thirty years.

I'm not sure that will encourage Jilli to visit.
Oh, and in me-me news that might amuse: my dream last night was about an S&M club full of colorful, kindhearted members with diverse knowledge and skills. When a member is murdered, and the police dismiss it as a sexual encounter gone bad, the club combines their knowledge to find the real killer. And since that makes headlines, now people from all over the city come to them for help. So they fight crime!
Dude, that's cable TV gold! Write it up and find an agent!
Or start a best-selling book series.
Limbaugh's apologized.
"I'm sorry so many of the sponsors of my show are slut sympathizers!"
start a best-selling book series.
That is BANK, Gar.
