@ Ryan

Yes. The russians were performing test to see if they could keep a disembodied dog head alive. I assume this drawing is just the extreme imaginative end of that testing.

I understand how cruel it was, but you must remember the life support technology developed to run those experiments have probably saved thousands of human lives by this point.

Here's a tip. If you want to see wild bison there is a very small town south of Grand Tetons national park called Kelly Wyoming. It is a valley between the Tetons and some other mountains.

But in there they have hundreds of bison, moose, antelope, deer, foxes, and elk. I saw 100x more wildlife while parked on the shoulder of the road in this little town than I saw in Yellowstone.

Only on TV and radio, and in magazines, and movies, and at ball games... and on buses and milk cartons and t-shirts, and bananas and written on the sky, and pressed into our skin. But not in dreams, no siree.

@ Masada:

Oh I understand his work just fine in the academic sense, not many people can't. I just find his themes rather trite, and his story telling dry. I have never walked away from a Vonnegut book fulfilled in any way.

Yeah yeah, I get it Kurt, humans are complex creatures capable of great beauty and horrible evils. I can get the same thing from Dr. Who reruns, and more creative science fiction too.

Is it just me, or is the most overrated book in print?

Vonnegut is a way overrated author too. I have friends who spend their days bagging groceries who write more compelling and creative stories.

I call his books "airplane books", because they are cheep, only take four hours to read, and are only mildly better than the in-flight movie.

Because we all know great things happen when Germany and Japan get together, right?

But really, they will just get damaged too quickly. I don't how much redundancy is built in but if you loose just one or two it may stop working.

Also what about recycling. I know it is an incredibly small volume but it all adds up. Gold is an incredibly important resource. If only we could rapper to stop putting it in their mouths.

It took me about 2 minuets before I was I able to follow all three at the same time. But by then it was getting really annoying.

Maybe in the future our attention spans will be so short that we will watch movies two or three at a time.

Looks fun

Too bad you probably have to be a pro not to kill yourself on it.

Maybe they will offer tandem rides on it so you can go down with a pro, like sky diving

When I hear stories like this I always think the dog is just concerned for itself more than others. The dog can smell the fire quicker and know to get out of the house, but he needs to wake someone up to let him out.

I am pretty sure it was the officer in the high-vis jacket and 5 chavs dressed in black that were running (waddling in the cop's case)in that scared off the guys.

Respect towards the old lady, though.

Boulder < Thats your answer right there

I don't know what it is about that city, but it attracts all the cooks.

I spent one summer there at CU. There are more hipsters, potheads, "artist," athletes, students, and people who generally just disagree with reality per square mile than any other place on earth.

It is very strange watching my parents at work on technology. It really makes me notice the intuition I have towards it.

My dad's work just gave him a droid. By god, every little thing. I spent half an hour trying to talk him through turning on the alarm clock feature. I have never even used a droid, but I know enough about how modern phones are laid out that I could still tell him how to do it over the phone.
