I was invited to see Lewis perform 'Damn Yankees" on his 70th birthday. In the middle, he stops the show to do a vaudeville comedy act. Best live performance I have ever seen.

One should not look to entertainers to give voice to politics. Enjoy what they do and forgive what they do not.

Thank you

It is a torture device called 'The Tenderizer". It is reason the for the insult "Fork You!"

Love Biohazard XL, Please.

BTW, Craig is right. The photos on What Is It and Neatorama are different devices and I think they have different uses. My answer stands for either, however.

1. This is how some militaries embark and disembark.

2. Efficiency is not an issue and therefore should not be a consideration.

3. A significant number of people do not follow the current boarding rules. They will be no more likely to follow this system.

Uhm ... I think that is a toy.

There was an interesting study that showed a *very* strong link in dogs between aggressiveness and appearance. Foxes that look wild might always be wild.

Sounds like last Friday's bar conversation. Except for the poker referees.

Utter hogwash. Besides being one of the Economist's classically flawed "studies". Does anyone actually believe this?

And while we are on the subject of false assumptions: Just because the yeast was first discovered in South America, does not mean it originated there.

Good question, kakungulu. Mine involves getting how long it would take to get my hands on it to make some interesting brew.

Some endeavor are the soul of industrious seriousness. Others are meant for the entertainment of those involved or observing. It appears that this one was well executed for its primary intention.

... and we believe that Improv Anywhere did not stage any (if not all) of those announcements.

Most of these sort of things fail miserably in even a soft breeze. Has anyone ever simply put a camaera on the end of a stick?

Great find. Thanks.
