Farming on deck of a nuclear carrier is a great idea. I always thought it would be a viable plague/zombie apocalypse strategy to put planters on the desk (or even full fields, if you can do it) and take it out to sea while all the bodies rot ashore for a year or so. You get to plant two seasons - just head south/north…

Heated things expand. The parts farther from the heat source cool, contracting. The heated water pushes the cooler water away as it expands. The pushed away water encounters the flim and loops around because it has nowhere else to go.

Back in 2000, when I heard that funding for the Pluto mission was in Jeopardy, I wrote my senator. (You’re welcome!)

Could have just been some person with an OCD, too.

The biggest letdown of Comic Con is ALWAYS when they don’t immediately release trailers to those of us online.

I guess he pulled through his plane crash.

Thank you - the half facing the camera.

Charon looks like something you sit on. Come on, haven’t you heard of “Charon-chair alike”? :)

Arya is a Time Lord - she can change her face!

That’s nothing. I live in a 100-billion star system!

I have an IQ in the top 2%, member of Mensa.... and I utterly stink at math. I can anagram, I adore palindromes. Words, I can work with. I can make them stand on their heads!

Cars wasn’t a bad movie. I liked it. Cars 2, however, stunk deeply. I’d swap Cars with Monsters University on your list.

Too many writers are great at starting stories, but SUCK at ending them.
