Is it an American tradition that guns should o0nly be fired with ones eyes closed?

Well, I mean, why not do that...again?

So, tax-dodging dwarves then?

“...it’s “still making that fucking backwards story about seven dwarfs living in a cave together.”

Everybody was unlikeable

Are there no actual photos of this event?

I thought you were going to comment on the fact that a comet broken into 30 pieces is no less destructive than the original comet, since the total impactor has the same mass and velocity, and thus will impart the same amount of energy on impact. Yeah, I went there.

I can’t remember if it’s the same character in the book, but there’s a big element of the people at the museum trying to get people to visit, including the troop.
