Cluck2's Comments

Worked in a garden center and the following conversation took place:
C: How tall will this tree get?
Me: Well it is a maple tree so between 60 and 80 feet (reading the tag on the tree)
C: Ok but how tall with this tree get?
Me: You mean how tall will this particular tree get?
C: Yes because I want to compare it too one I saw at another place and I want to get one that will be the tallest.
Me: 73 feet. If it doesn't get that tall you can return it but you need to have the receipt.
C: Oh that is wonderful thanks.

"(like maybe a Marvel superhero movie starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson directed by James Cameron)"

I don't think Cameron movie get an official budget anymore. With Avatar Fox just asked him to try not too crazy.

This list just keeps showing how far out of touch BBC Culture is from basically everyone. I know the Academy isn't the best a picking the best movies of the year but of this list of 100 the number even nominated for one of the 3 best pictures is low. One other thing to point out is that this is the first list (and there are dozens) that has Ratatouille as a better film than Finding Nemo.

A family member of mine works for The Mill and he worked on a series of Audi ads. The ads take place in winter but if you look at the trees you will notice they all have leaves covered in CGI snow because SoCal doesn't have much snow in early Oct when it is 80+ out. The ad ends with the car in front of a house but the only thing real in the shot was a single tree, the house was fully CGI, the road surface was not as pristine as they liked so they changed that and the car was the wrong model. He said they actually do not need to shoot car ads any more they could just take pictures of the car and crop them into any other background combos they wanted.

"Her co-worker and customers react with horror when they realizes that she's one of them."

Shouldn't that be: Her co-worker and customers fail to react with any emotion, realizing that she's one of them.

"My proposal: encourage players to move expeditiously by releasing hungry lions onto the field after an hour."

Typical type of response by one that doesn't really know what is going on.

I agree about the color thing. In the previous video he doesn't really talk about color, just that he is told this is what a cherry smells like and a cherry is red. I would have an easier time explaining depth than color because you can still relate distance by feel in a way(a baseball 100 ft away is the size of a dime type thing). There is nothing about color that I could describe that somebody that cannot see it could in any way understand. Forget about even trying to explain how colors can carry an emotional impact.

So Tree Hugger bothers you but Pirate, Professional Cuddler and Dance Mom no problem?

I haven't been to Mount Rushmore but something tells me that a lot of people think they can do better than the current tour guides are. Also I am really worrying about Iowa.
