I live in Flagstaff and know a bunch of wildland fire fighters (their work intersects mine). I’m afraid to see the movie because I know too many people (men and women) who do that job. One of my student workers was an helitack crew member before going back to college. That job is for the real maniacs, she is one of…

A bunch of us should dress up as ewoks and tp it on Halloween night. While singing the “lub lub” song.

Hey, your English is better than my anything else. Dang polyglots.

But that guy actually is smart. Those little pauses when he speaks, that’s a guy thinking about what he’s saying as he says it.

In real life, they already are.

My older brother was in the Navy during the Vietnam war. Horseplay included shooting a grapefruit out of a improvised black powder cannon at the Seattle Sea Queen and buying automatic rifles off of Vietnamese Marines (which they had to give back when caught). What I’m saying is that a bunch of bored 18-year-olds with…

Fair enough. Allen could have avoided some this by simply stating the truth that Weinstein is a monster and what he did to those women was reprehensible and criminal. He’d be called out for being hypocritical considering his own creepy behavior, but that was going to happen anyway.

Naw, he’s been a total joke and fraud for decades. He’s just reasonable good at speaking in a manner that stupid people think is the way smart people speak.

Alcohol or stroke?

Because we always come up with a definitive well considered position immediately when asked a random question. Nobody should be allowed to think any subject over and refine their opinion or understanding over time. You certainly shouldn’t be allowed to clarify your poorly worded previous statement that did a poor job…

I’d boycott him, but I haven’t seen a Woody Allen movie in at least 30 years. I don’t think I’ve seen a Woody Allen movie that was made in the past 40 years. Still, the reason we’re talking about his reaction to Weinstein is that somebody asked him a question in an interview. It’s not like Woody Allen was wandering…

In Kirk’s time the Federation is so peaceful that nobody know how to fight (even at schoolyard levels). Why wouldn’t you just kick the guy in the side of the head? Is Kirk’s ass so hard it makes a better weapon than a shoe?

very marginally.

It’s like they always hire the worst sculptor they can find..

Hope you’re not holding your breath.

Well, you could believe that intuition is a subconcious form of cognition where you’re putting data together, hypothesizing and making conclusions without conciously thinking about the problem. So there’s nothing supernatural about it at all. you could also think that intuition is just acting on subliminal perceptions…

Or when people started applying “hero” to anyone who served in the military in any capacity. Not everyone in the military is risking life and limb. A lot of military people are mainly sitting at desks doing paperwork. That kinda devalues the actions of real heros, some of which are in the military and some of which do…

You, Lord, are a intergalatic treasure.

Well considering what a segment on SNL did for Bassomatic sales...
