  Tue Nov 17, 2009
  • @ Ashli: It's funny you should say that, because I remember in Flubber that the professor made a flying car, flew up to a good spot to see the moon, turned off the engine, and started falling. It's almost unbelievable to me that flying cars may become a reality in our lifetimes.

  • "Timber industry officials have said in the past they were not aware of such misconduct by their workers." "misconduct"... That word to me makes it sound like you're disciplining young boys. For men in this situation, I'd say "purposeful acts of major perverse wrongdoing".
