“What are three letters that have never been in my kitchen?”

I was stumped, mainly because I had no idea TED was so old. I thought it dated from the late-nineties at most.

Having formerly tended to the executive lounge facilities at a health club, I can say that you are not the first with this idea, though it usually involved bagels—delicious, delicious bagels smothered in rich cream cheese thicker than some of the patrons’ thighs—at the club I worked at (and no locks, so you can’t make

It’s the only thing keeping Trekkies (somewhere close to) sane.

Wait, when was the UK on the civilized half?

IT WON’T MATTER!

Alasdair didn’t mention that the Germans also provided some financial backing, so there were lots more body fluids and gimp suits involved…

“My name is John Crichton, an astronaut. Radiation may of hit me, and I got shot through a Wormhole. Now I'm lost in some distant part of the Universe, on a ship - a living ship, full of strange alien life forms. Now, listen please. Is there anybody out there that can hear me?

Frankly, the only thing most commenters are looking for out of grades is an excuse to bitch and moan (look at D’Angelo’s Nosferatu review). If I were a reviewer I’d be very tempted to just randomly assign grades completely unconnected with the actual review.

There’s a great, though last time I checked sadly paywalled, Jonathan Chait article about why Delaware is the worst state in the country (IIRC, it mostly focused on the reasons why so many companies choose to incorporate there but also mentioned the awful tolls as a symbol for how Delaware essentially cheats the rest

So this is the guy responsible for killing Farscape classic? This encapsulates my feelings towards you:

I don’t believe you. Too many inconsistencies. Too much obfuscation.

Just remind the powers that be who their daddy is.

This sounds pretty awesome to me, and I know the basic story. For someone who doesn’t it would be mind-blowing, go for it.

100% agreement (although I like You Only Live Twice before they leave Tokyo, but that’s more for the setting and Bond driving the world’s only interesting Toyota than anything else)

I constantly get “Underneath the Mango Tree” stuck in my head.
