Actually I think Beth might have been going for Dawn's neck, but Dawn moved fast enough and took the scissors in the shoulder instead.

But, you might ask, mightn't domestic dogs behave much like wolves in captivity?

The part I was referencing was

I have to agree... "It's so simple a child could do it!" "They're the bringers of pleasure and pain" etc etc.

Also deserving an honourable mention from Spock's Brain: "Brain! Brain! What is brain?!"

My kids came to be Lego-aged in the early 2000's so I'm definitely in the "Lego lost it's way" camp. There were so many finicky little specialized pieces, and hardly any generic pieces. My kids would start building something but quickly run out of raw materials due to the lack of generic pieces. And they had a lot of…

When time travel becomes a reality, our Outlook calendars will be ready!

Ha-ha! I had to look them up... I was one of those who gave up on Voyager early on....

I have always been fascinated by the Antikythera Mechanism, and the fact that it might be older than previously believed makes it even more interesting. However, if the "starting point" of the calendar is earlier, does that really mean it is older? Could it have been built to see what celestial arrangements looked…

A yes, the Romvian Pollution Belt, where a race of sentient Roomvas dumped all their payloads.

I always get nervous during take-off and landing. Thanks for giving me a reason to be nervous for the in-between take-off and landing part now. Sheesh.

So what you're saying is democracy ain't so bad....

That's why the polar bears have to shout.

Agreed - it would be another dark gritty reboot lacking a soul.

My family is originally from Argentina. We left the country in the early 80s. Some years later, I watched Brazil when I was in high school, and absolutely loved it. However, I tried to get my mom to watch it and she couldn't. It reminded her far too much of what it was like living in Argentina during the Dirty War. I…

Consider that Çatalhöyük lasted for a couple thousand years, I don't think it was the nomadic social structure that caused the collapse. That's a hell of a long time for a place to stand and societies to evolve. I would expect if old social structures had been the cause, the collapse would have been a lot sooner.…

The things that have sidelined me in the past couple of years have been plantar fasciitis and tendinitis in first my right then my left elbow. I think the advise in this article is spot on. I'd like to highlight the "build up gradually", "don't push through the pain" and "give your body a rest" points especially, as…

Thank you! I was wracking my brain trying to remember where I'd seen those before!

I propose we combine Darryl and Carol's name to identify them as the awesome unit they are. How about Dar-rol? Or Car-ryl?

But comparing this amazing reality to the crapiness of that movie only makes this landing cooler!
