Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Punishingly Intricate

But I think they were intended to be decorative, so I can't find anything on how much weight they'll actually hold.

ON a non-finish specific page for that type of shelf it says they'll hold 15 lbs. bummer.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Were the footprints the only CGI fireworks, or were all the fireworks CGI?

My understanding is that the footprints were CGI only on TV, because it was deemed too dangerous to be setting off fireworks that close to a bajillion news copters. (But that there really were footprint fireworks set off, just not "live" the way it was shown.)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, bummer. Where did you find that info? I bow to your google-fu.

And that's what I thought they were saying during the broadcast, because they said it was "literally cinematic" so I figured either it was "literal" abuse or that it wasn't live.

This is pretty cool--word clouds comparing McCain's blog to Obama's.

I heard it on Buzz Out Loud (http://reviews.cnet.com/buzz-out-loud-podcast/), so take it with a grain of salt. Or several.

“Not dead yet!”

What happens when you don't buy exclusive rights to photos for book covers.

Damn. I was really hoping it would be Twilight-related.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I actually really love the imagery and the design of the Twilight series. It's beautifully stark and spare. Definitely a case of not judging by cover, yes?

Commes de Garcons designs for H&M. Just... wow.

What a coincidence--I just sold a copy of Erotomania at the bookstore last night (I recognized that cover).

In local real estate news, boy, are prices dropping like a rock around here! I just did another search for 2+BR townhouses for under $175K, and not only found a few more than two weeks ago, but a few of the units that were in my initial search have dropped from $150-160K to the $125K range. Short sale pressures will do that, I guess.
