Ayn really really craved the Maytag treatment. This is apparently true. Of coarse, I never understood L Ron Hubbard's popularity either. He's not popular. I read once that Scientologists actually bought books at the bookstores and then their depot sent the same books back out again to drive up thei...

If Glassman had ever done the work to get a paper published, he'd know what the place of peer review is. Those of us who actually work in scientific endeavors are familiar with the benefits and weaknesses of peer review.

Plot details match Ben Bova's The Winds of Altair amazingly well.
But Pocahontas works too. Dances with Space Wolves.

I read these. And some others not in list. Good author, but some books (not from this list) too much politicize.

Too much politicize? Now you sound like Manny!

What is wrong with Annie Sakamoto's pull? It looks pretty good to me, and it's definitely one of the best examples from @fit. In other news - Rant is back. "The Moynihan Institute The Institute is in the process of reopening. Stayed tuned. 11/20/09." Non-expert opinion? excessive leaning ...

Val came to the 7 a.m. class on Saturday to hit the workout of the day along with everyone else. Only, this was also Val's wedding day! I don't think there are many brides out there that would train on their wedding day, but Valerie has her priorities straight! Are you fucking kidding me? This is u...

:-# Really? Seriously? some fucking knob pressing a tortoise I hope to God that's a snapping turtle. That is officially the dumbest fucking thing I've seen all week. Just shitting on historical monuments--by doing handstands in front of them--isn't enough anymore. Now they have to shit on iconic im...

No comedies yet?

Blazing Saddles.... Funny every time, all the time.

I had a an official CD of the Vangelis soundtrack once upon a time...IIRC, it was a UK only release or something like that.

Surely they at least have him carry a street sword at all times?
It's what badasses do.

The author says the NTOA do not (sic, moron go back to high school and retake English) endorse CrossFit. Maybe they ought to read the NTOA Journal which has written in their Journal one of the most complimentary pieces on CF I've seen. Writing Tip: If you're going to call someone out for making gra...

Don't tell Shaf, you'll break his heart!

Come on people! Am I the only one who noticed this!!

If DD did that we would never have left.

90 minutes is often too short, I don't bitch until the 3 hour mark.

Swamp Thing is classic. Moore is insane, but great. It's a shame that Totleben's eye disease kept his output down. His cover paintings are incomparable.

Also Miller's Lone Wolf and Cub is good.
Busiek's Astro City combines retro-futuristic comic book nostalgia with some darn good writing.

Liked it. Good Easter Egg after the credits, too.

Was it worse than Highlander II? Cause that movie was so bad I had to start doing shots of rum to kill the pain.

Yes, David Drake. I mixed up the order, though. With The Lightnings is the first book. Drake, BTW, is a personable, friendly fellow in RL (or at least towards fans). I met him a couple of times. One nice thing he does is he will sign any book of his... he's not one of those guys that makes his fans ...

Drake's Leary and Mundy series (begins with Lt. Leary Commanding ) is entertaining. In spite of a high mortality rate the tone of the stories is pretty positive with an underlying sense of humor. It's an intentional homage to the Aubrey and Maturin novels, of which Drake is a fan. Drake does the sam...

Valid question. All I know is, if I'm repping or maxing on cleans, I want a shirt between me and the bar.

I weep for your editor.

What we have here is a misunderstanding.

That dumb hero totally ruined Fat Cat's planned crocodile sacrifice and subsequent fertility ritual.

Tragic.
