("Dominate" is a word too, but it's a noun, not an adjective.)

It's a verb, not a noun.

That's...what I meant. Wow, I was just all kinds of wrong, wasn't I. I claim the "It was early" excuse.

Is The Godfather a faithful adaptation of the book?

Ooh, good one! Except I don't know because I've never read it.

Was it Amych or Plei who said the English language needs a safe word?

I had to check my profile, because I used it as a tagline; it was Amy-Chuh.

That excuse has gotten me out of many a grammatical mishap.

ION, I'm editing an article on stem cell mobilization, and it keeps making me giggle, because it sounds like a military tactic. "Mobilize the stem cells! Get them on the front line NOW!!!"

Yes, the whole problem of it being early didn't help my predominately-or-predominantly dilemma. I think I will warn the author, who is ESL, that it is correct usage but far less common than the other.

Hee. "Go go go!" Sometimes things have fun names. In my cancer pharm course, I mentioned the antioxidant superoxide dismutase. How awesome is that name?

Godfather is mostly true to the book. I read the book a long time ago, but I remember it was pretty consistent. The thing that absolutely matched was the tone. Coppola got it perfect. I felt the same sense of tension and dread reading the book as I did watching the movie.

How awesome is that name?

That's as cool as "cytokine storm"! (Which is something that I don't want to ever happen to me, but the name makes it sound fantastic!)

I swear to you, I read this

Lucas’s Law: There is no movie so beloved that a “special edition,” prequel or sequel cannot trample and forever stain its memory.

And I thought, "Woah, there's a special edition of Lucas? And it's different somehow? How did -- Oh. Oh, I get it now." Definitely time for more coffee.

Now someone with a better memory than me come up with a supporting example, stat!

My impression is that Bridges of Madison County is reasonably faithful to the book. But since it's a movie, you are spared Waller's prose.

And now I find out from Facebook that my mother is at the hospital with my grandfather.

Jones Soda introduces limited edition "Tofurkey & Gravy" vegetarian flavor.

(1) Ew. (2) I had no idea their regular turkey flavor soda wasn't vegetarian. EW.
