Oh, a sarcasm detector. That's really useful.

Can I ask what this is? It looks so very familiar, and yet I cannot place it.

1) I'm not suggesting that the bloodsport replace all other sports, simply add to it. And if this is a problem, it can easily be solved via corporate sponsorship, non-lethal competitions for new draftees to make themselves known (like MMA tournaments and such), and other mitigating factors. Researchers would test new…

I've been making this case for years, with one important exception.

I know that everybody hates Honor Harrington except me, but this is the first thing that came to my mind.

I'm not normally a James Patrick Kelly fan, but that's an excellent short story. Go local authors!

Tenth season is hardly "newer", given that we're up to 25 seasons now. 10th season was still the '90s!

George Lucas makes him pay for those, you know.

That's easy. Just make sure that the database field for recording the planet class is a varchar(3). Then you can have everything from A to ZZZ, plus some numbers in there too!

"When you get home tonight, there's gonna be another story on your house! Thank you!"

I own the Season 8 DVD set, and watch it at least once a month. It's my favorite of all time. =)

Who is Scorpio? I'll buy that storyline, but only if whoever plays the role can be voiced by Albert Brooks.

I was a little disappointed with the Flaming Moe, but I suppose it has to be kid-friendly. I'll stick with my authentic home-made Flaming Homers: a little bit of everything from the liquor cabinet, a touch of purple cough syrup, and flambéd for excellence. =)

Short answer "yes" with an "if", long answer "no".... with a "but".

Magic and CG effects look much better and much more believable against an already-CG background. I think it's a damn shame that the flop of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within has prevented anyone from making another run at a serious story filmed entirely at Blur Studio-level CGI. Instead, the only CGI films we get are…

I don't mind spiders, although I wish that the extremely productive one who seems to have taken over my garage would stop stringing webs over EVERYTHING so that I get clotheslined by tiny silken strings when I try to get in my car every morning.

It's not the fridge; everything else keeps without a problem. It's got to be the quality of the cuts at my local stores, which is very disappointing. Mostly what I do now is cook a meal and then divide it into those plastic freezable containers, which usually gets me 4 or 5 days' worth. It's a pretty good system, even…

Lately, I'm lucky to have any deli meat I find last three days before it starts to turn slimy and smell like death. I finally gave up on cold cut sandwiches for exactly this reason.

I was going to ask why they were using zombies as test subjects, but, yeah.

I hold out a vague hope that I can get a Viking funeral. Launched onto a lake or river on a flammable raft and hit with a flaming arrow... but, you know. Laws, and whatever.
