Uh, the origin (Earth) moves (rotates around Sun), the Sun moves (rotates with galaxy), the galaxy moves...See the problem? Yes, we have computer models of all of this, but that just gets you inertial navigation, which gets more imprecise as time progresses from T-0 (departure). What we need is GPS -

Funnily enough EG on the planes would indicate Eglin AFB in the panhandle of Florida, not Edwards AFB in the Mojave Desert of California.

Actually, FB is of little use to me. I am on it pretty much for the benefit of my parents and my girlfriend. I also use it to access a local for-sale forum in my small town (Craigslist is essentially unheard of here). Otherwise I would just delete my account. Actual communication for me takes place over e-mail and

Hopefully the text color is context sensitive as my timeline header picture is a white image with the following words in black text: "This timeline left blank intentionally." (I went through and literally deleted every image and post from my account when timeline was rolling out). Unlike most folks on Facebook I pay

Am I the only one who ever wondered how this superior intellect managed to "maroon" and "bury alive" his nemesis 50 feet from a giant underground cavern full of food and comms equipment? Um...duh?

You know, the FOUR WORDS clue that is given on the blog might've been useful...Why does LH always cut out important details when posting these things?

Is it "squaring the circle"? Just Googled "impossible problem phrase" and it's the first hit. I tried several variations and that keeps coming to the surface. I've never heard that phrase before, but as an engineer I don't tend to deal with problems typically considered impossible.

How long will it be until someone comes up with a method to make a Beowulf cluster out of these things?

I hate to admit this but as I live with a woman I am sometimes subjected to Lifetime. The werwolf twins were an ex-con and innocent high school girl pair of lovers on some goofy Lifetime movie that aired hours before their first appearance on Being Human. I was trippin' out!

SEC filing != IPO

A lot like this, I'd venture to guess. Seeing as Oldsmobile was killed a few years back.

Googled "strung bow instrument mouth". Clicked on the "did you mean to search for..." on Google since it thought strung was a typo. First link to Wikipedia. Creepy mountain folk in the video lead me to believe it's the Appalachian "mouthbow" or "mouth bow".

People fear what they don't understand, and what they don't understand is...understanding. They'd rather read out of a 2,000 year old fairy tale how the universe works than try to learn about what actually makes things tick.

Have they added an "enhance" feature yet?? :)

No love for 8mm?

I do believe you meant to say that Spock taught Alt-Scotty how to transport onto a ship moving at warp speeds, not how to build a warp drive...

So "NSTY HOE" gets a post but when I tweeted you a photo of CA license plate "VEGASBJ" a few weekends ago, not so much as a mention? Pfft.

An food item that can't be eaten in a particular way is not automatically terrible and yet you provide no other evidence for calling a Chipotle burrito terrible. How about this - Chipotle burritos are wonderful because they enable consumer choice, whereas an iPhone does not. ;)
