Let me see if I understand their premise. Their theory does not allow for early childhood memories so therefore they cannot really exist.

When facts disagree with theory, cognitive dissonance analysis says that there are four ways to respond. This is the simplest and the worst.

Hey! I didn’t get to vote on this one

They are called shooting sticks and have been around for centuries. Except, lighter easier to carry and less expensive.

Painters from the Baroque forward (I think it started with them) used to put wet clothes on models so that they could sculpt the cloth for maximum effect. There is a story of an opera singer who liked the idea so she had her dresser wet and sculpt her gowns. Looked good until the hot stage lights turned the water into steam and made it look like she was on fire.

I used to make pizza with a think base of mustard and topped with pastrami and pepperoncini.

Like forests have never recovers from fires without our help.

Can I vote for neither? Unless there is a shower and a way to steam out wrinkles, no one will ever use this for a business meeting. On the other hand, a high top van that has a sleepigng couch and a work desk would be very welcome.

Since the this species lives a solitary adult life, it will likely leave when it gets old enough. As long as they feed it live prey, it should do well.

Went for a physical today: 97.6F. About right for sitting in an office. 96.8F when sleeping. Up to 102F when exercising.

You warm weather drivers slay me. Run the same experiment below zero and then tell me how much fuel a start-stop system saves. In case it matters, I now live in California and drive a hybrid. The gas engine stops as soon as the car does and the start is 100% electric. However, when cold, the gas engine runs until it is up to temperature which occasionally is the whole trip.

I was hitting discos back then and was floored when Off The Wall came out. I studied that album like no other trying to figure out why it was so radical. My conclusion was, and is, that Jackson grew up experiencing music at the highest levels. However, his domineering parents never let him participate in its creation. He turned 21 in 1979, fired his family and put 16 years of musical frustration into OTW.

If it is done well. If it is done badly, it is camp theater.

It is called "Acid" for the movie public. It is really a set of compounds that corrode organic material like Lewisite or some venoms. Why doesn't it harm the Xenomorph? That is over-thinking.

Wait, what? Does Miss C have to go into the queue?
