@Wonky: Yes. It's an image from "The Man Who Fell to Earth".

They could save fabric and reduce the environmental impact by simply having smaller basketball players.

I thought it would look like this.

People who commit felonies don't usually anticipate getting caught and being sent to prison. The added deterrent factor of losing their right to vote is highly unlikely to make any difference.

As I mentioned before, homosexuality and other forms of sodomy (including the woman being on top in some states) were felonies in the past, as was mixed-race marriage in some states.

Time to throw out the ghost chili sauce. 1 million SHUs? Pathetic!

Your my hero! Hospitalized by ghost peppers!

The European Court of Human Rights agrees with you, as do I on reflection.

This is not as bad as the faux stitched leather look that been invading iOS recently. That is really hideous.

You are not the only one. It's an outrage!

I'm much more in love with the idea of Lensbabies than I am with actually using them! I have a Composer with just about all the optics and accessories, but I find myself almost never taking them with me when I go somewhere.

When it comes to electricity, t's all about Michael Faraday. He gave us the dynamo (the basis for every electricity generator that I can think of, apart from solar cells) and the electric motor.

Swan had a commercially viable lightbulb on the market in the UK a year before Edison.

I think they already have drugs to treat you. They're called anti-psychotics.

I have a personal dislike of Beck. When I was a concert photographer, for Beck sets we often weren't allowed in the press pit and would instead have to go to the back (beck?).

That's rubbish! You can't even see the British Isles.

Apple keeps stealing my colleagues. This was happening even before Steve Jobs retired from active duty. They stole the optics engineer I was working with. It took us a long time to replace him. He wasn't looking for a new job, a head hunter approached him. Quite a few others have been nabbed by Apple too.

Given your German name, it doesn't surprise me you've wondered about this too!
